REUTERS/Lucas Jackson/File Photo Acquire Licensing RightsCompanies Starbucks Corp FollowNEW YORK, Sept 18 (Reuters) - Starbucks (SBUX.O) was ordered by a federal judge on Monday to face a lawsuit claiming that several of its Refresher fruit beverages lacked a key ingredient: fruit. Consumers complained that Starbucks' Mango Dragonfruit, Mango Dragonfruit Lemonade, Pineapple Passionfruit, Pineapple Passionfruit Lemonade, Strawberry Açai and Strawberry Açai Lemonade Refreshers contained none of the advertised mango, passion fruit or açai. The judge dismissed a fraud claim, finding no proof Starbucks intended to defraud consumers, and an unjust enrichment claim. Starbucks in a statement called the allegations in the lawsuit "inaccurate and without merit," and said it looked forward to defending itself. The case is Kominis et al v Starbucks Corp, U.S. District Court, Southern District of New York, No.
