Simply Starbucks

The holiday drinks are out at Starbucks! What is your favorite drink?


Maybe it's one of the Lattes? Gingerbread, Eggnog or Caramel Brulée?

 
Or perhaps it is the Peppermint Mocha, which is my personal favorite.
 
 
Or maybe your choice is a simple cup of coffee.

 
"Mothers are those wonderful people who can get up in the morning before the smell of coffee." ~Author Unknown

 
Could it possibly be a steaming cup of tea?

    I love coffee. I will try some of the exotic flavors. But our all time favorite is a bit of vanilla flavor. So I am mixing coffees all the time..xo, Susie

    My favorite but that I couldn't drink all the time is Coke.
    Most Favorite because I would drink all the time is TEA (but for the black).

    I always envied the taste of Coffee Lovers because I could never like it. When years later I was diagnosed with a disease that become agravated with the consume of coffee I couldn't thank enough my good luck ahahahah

    But in the coffee lovers there's something I envy more than your taste for it, it's your passion for Starbucks. Sometimes I enter one just to fill a bit like you and those stores are magical and so welcoming that I think when I'm over 90, I'll be a daredevil and live in one ahahahah

    Cheers with my Mug of White Tea to a Lovely Week at Red Rose Alley!

    so funny when you don't drink tea or coffee ...i am a herbal tea person but do indulge in a hot chocolate now and again...6 years ago while in New York i went to a Starbucks and asked for a hot chocolate...imagine my surprise when they did not know how to make one....!!!!! i told then what to do as they had chocolate powder and they were excited to try one when i left with mine ..free of charge of course...i bet they make hot chocolates on the menu now!!!!!!

    Cappuccino is always my favourite although I think I should try gingerbread latte - so festive and will get me in the mood for Christmas. At breakfast it has to be tea - English Breakfast tea!

    Can you believe there are only 2 Starbucks in Finland?!?! Both in the airport, how about that.. I should start a petition for opening more, I mean, come on.. I used to love the vanilla lattes when I was living in Ireland, now I redirected to Robert's Coffee and other places.. but this weekend, since I actually live close by the airport, I am going to go have a taste..
