What's Your Favorite Beverage at Starbucks?

White Chocolate Mocha Frappe, non-fat, tall.

Of course, that’s like, five million calories, so not having it. But it’s the only way I’ll drink coffee.

Alternately, salted caramel hot chocolate, tall. Or a hot caramel apple cider. Again, though, tons of calories, so I’ll stick to Diet Coke, thanks.

I rarely go. Usually I get 8 to 10 shots of espresso in a cup, with some raw sugar.

Coffee. Large coffee, always. There’s no excuse to drink coffee if one isn’t going to drink it out of the largest available cup.

And thank you for not “correcting” me by saying “venti” when I ask for “large.”

People will hate me for this (unjustified, as you’ll see by my explanation:)

I order a “trenta” sized beverage. Yes, the 916 ml sized beverage that is allegedly bigger than the average adult human stomach.

Even if I bought that criticism (which I don’t, I’m a large dude) - what I usually order in the summer is a trenta black iced tea, unsweetened.

Say what you will, but Starbucks’ iced tea is pretty tasty. I like it better than Caribou’s, which is the only other chain in the area. The iced tea and coffee that I like to order (unsweetened) are pretty much just water. Yeah, it has a “premium” cost (~$3 for water?!) but I’m not about to spend the time brewing or steeping it myself. And it is delicious. So hurrah for Starbucks iced tea and coffee!

The hot chocolate is the only thing I like there. My daughter tells me the Strawberries & Crème Frappuccino is very good but according to their website it has 450 Calories, Calories from Fat 150!
:eek:

Another coffee hater here XD Green Tea Frappuccino all the way! I used to LOVE their Caramel Apple Cider drink until I saw them pouring it out of a jug of cider you buy in the store yourself. If I’m going to overpay for a drink, I’d rather do it in blissful ignorance tyvm.

Coca Cola.

I despise coffee! :smiley:

Most times it is a grande non fat latte. Sometimes I will go with a skinny vanilla latte.

I do partake in the eggnog latte when avaliable and occasionally I will get a half sweet caramel macchiato.

Lite caramel frapuccino, please. Repeatedly.

We were at a convention in Arlington, VA in 2008 and there was a Starbucks kiosk in the lobby of the hotel. I spent way too much money on lite caramel frapuccinos. Way too much.

Awake tea, with sugar and milk.

That’s my usual order. Sometimes, a grande instead.

I would argue that someone with simple taste would get a coffee like I do… with enough milk and sugar to kill a small animal.

I can’t stand the taste of black coffee.

One acquaintance of mine has a conpiracy theory that Starbucks made Americans like dark/French roast coffee because it takes fewer beans to brew a cupful than it does to brew a cup of a lighter roast. Therefore, they use less beans and have a higher profit margin if their customers buy dark roasts.

As for me, my favorite drink at Starbucks is the croissants.

Venti Latte, sometimes with whole milk, if I’m feeling like a pig. :stuck_out_tongue:

The only thing I really look forward to is the eggnog latte. The pumpkin latte is good, too. Once they are in season, I try to limit myself to one or the other every couple of weeks. Too expensive for me to make a frequent habit!

Grande Hot Chocolate w/whipped cream and cocoa powder. And a pepermint shot in December.

Marble Mocha Macchiato.

Medium pumpkin spice latte with skim milk, whipped cream, cinnamon on top. I could drink this every day and twice on Sundays, but I limit myself in season.

The best is a raspberry mocha latte, with an extra shot of espresso

I don’t think I could pick just one. If I’m getting plain old coffee-flavored coffee, the new Pike’s Place is pretty good.

I like the various seasonal drinks, like the pumpkin spice latte and the egg nog.

Yesterday I had a coconut mocha frappachino that was incredible. I was going to just get plain old coffee, but it was hot out, and decided I wanted something cold.
