Trying My Followers Fav Starbucks Drinks
If you know me, you know I’m a big Starbucks gal. It’s the type of coffee that’s smooth and rich without being overly sweet. The baristas are overly friendly and kind (at least at our local drive through). It’s honestly something I look forward to doing when I leave my house. Which is why I wanted to try all of YOUR favorite Starbucks drinks! Specifically Holiday creations! I’ll definitely be doing more challenges like this in the future so if you’re not already, follow me on Instagram! That’s where I post most of my life updates, everyday finds, polls, and more!
Grande Cold Brew, Sweet Cream Cold Foam, 1 pump of Peppermint - All I have to say about this is…YUM. This drink will most likely be my new go-to drink during the Christmas season. It’s refreshing yet flavorful and gives you the perfect boost you need first thing in the morning. The cold foam at the top evenly distributes throughout the drink and compliments that peppermint so well.
I’d give this a solid 10 out of 10, will definitely order again!
Grande Caramel Brulee Latte with Almond Milk - Next, is something I would never order but was open to giving a shot! It’s a grande caramel brulee latte with almond milk. I will say, I was skeptical about this one. Especially because I don’t like sweet drinks and prefer something that has a strong coffee flavor. I was pleasantly surprised with how good this was though! I’m not sure if this would be a daily drink order but on occasion, I can get behind this. It is VERY sweet (as expected) but I think if you were to lessen the syrup pumps and take off the whip, it’d be better.
I’m rating this drink a 7 out of 10.
Grande Caramel Apple Spice, Extra Whip, In a Venti Cup - I’m so excited to share this with you guys! I’ve actually had this drink before (many times) but never really tell anyone about it! If you’re not into coffee or tea, this drink is for you. It’s pretty sweet but not too sweet. I’d categorize it as a fancy apple juice! Lol. You can’t forget the extra whip though - it 1000% ties the drink up with a nice little bow after each sip.
This drink is a 10 in my book all day long. Go get one!
Grande Iced Toffee Nut Latte with Almond Milk - Oh, I had such high hopes for this drink and was ultimately let down. I figured I’d get a salty/sweet combo with this and got the exact opposite. This drink was the sweetest of them all BY FAR (so much so, that I couldn’t even finish it). It had a thick consistency and tasted nothing like coffee. I was NOT a fan.
I hate to say it but…2 out of 10? And that’s being generous.
Grande Iced Dirty Chai with Almond Milk and Salted Cold Foam - Ok if you’re a chai fan, this drink is for you. It’s salty but sweet, not overpowering, and definitely gives you some energy (especially if you snag a double shot like I did). Overall, this was tasty and well worth the money.
Going to give this chai creation an 8 out of 10!
