I really like starbucks coffee. The only thing is that everything on the menu is expensive, but the coffee is good so I guess it just comes with the territory.
What is my favorite drink? There was a time that I would go to starbucks multiple times in the day just to get a venti mocha. I would even get the whipped cream on top. Pulling up to the drive through and getting one of those was a great way to start my day. Then in the afternoon, after things had started to slow down, I would go back and get something else.
Coffee is not all that I would get from starbucks. The other item on the menu that is really good is the lemon pound cake. It too is expensive but it is just right. Not too sweet, but a little tangy and it goes perfectly with a cup of coffee. They have a lot of other pastries that look okay, but the only other item on the menu that I like was the cinnamon pastry. Then I think it dropped off the menu.
Venti Mochas are expensive to begin with but I would even upgrade the drink a little bit more. I would add the flavored syrup to make the drink even better. Adding raspberry syrup took my hot mocha up a notch. Then for some unknown reason starbucks decided to change the type of raspberry syrup that they were using and it didn't taste as good anymore.
Do you ever try new drinks at starbucks or are you kind of locked in to your favorites? When it is really hot outside, you might decide to switch from the hot drinks to the frappacino line of coffees. The venti mocha frappuccino is really good and hits the spot. Don't drink it too fast, you might get a brain freeze.
They would sometimes give you a sample of something new. There are a few other drinks that I might try when thinking of being a little bit adventurous. During the holidays you might be tempted to try one of the holiday specials. I usually just stick to the favorites.
Why is starbucks the best place to get coffee? They added the drive thru window. It is so much better to sit in your own car and wait for your drink than standing in line inside.
Get a starbucks gift card and use it to buy your drinks. You can register the card online and track your status. Getting a gift card is great because you can log into your account and transfer the balance to your other cards. Starbucks has different levels that you can attain. You can get drink upgrades and even get a free cup of coffee on your birthday.
