    STARBUCKS Corp said it would stop sourcing water for its Ethos Water brand in California, which is in the fourth year of a serious drought that has prompted the state's first-ever mandatory cuts in water use.

    Beginning in May and over the next six months, Starbucks said it plans to move production to its Pennsylvania supplier.
