As a dominating coffee chain in not just America, but throughout the world, Starbucks has definitely surprised us with a variety of their drinks. Although slightly overpriced, the drinks are worth it. Here are some all-time favorites from Starbucks. (And no, not the pumpkin spice latte…)
Refreshers:
1. Passion Tea Lemonade Sweetened
If they run out of lemonade or can not sweeten it, do not get it.
2. Strawberry Acai With Coconut Milk
The regular strawberry acai refresher is also very good, but add a hint of coconut milk, and you are in another world.
3. Peach Green Tea Lemonade
The name says it all. Who does not like a good old peach green tea lemonade?
Frappuccinos:
1. Green Tea Frappuccino
It doesn’t sound or look that good. Pretty controversial, but a shockingly good once you take that first sip.
2. White Mocha
If you like vanilla ice cream, this is for you.
3. Caramel Ribbon Crunch
It is a seasonal drink, but the crunch really makes the drink. If they do not have any crunch left, it is basically just a caramel frappuccino.
4. Strawberries And Cream
These are for the ladies and gents who do not like coffee but want a good old fruity frap from Starbucks. You can not go wrong with this one.
Hot/Caffeinated Drinks
1. Caramel Latte
It is pretty basic, but still killer good.
2. Peppermint Mocha
Only served in the winter, but the chocolate flakes and minty coffee says it all.
3. Caramel Macchiato
Hot or cold, this drink is pumped with espresso and will get you through the day.
4. Chai Tea Latte With A Shot Of Espresso
The cinnamon taste of chai tea with the hint of espresso will overpower that stinky coffee breath, but still get you through your day.
