My original 'always drink' was the grande drip in a venti cup (cuz I pour tons of milk in there).
$1.68
Now I only go there every once in a while (every couple of months or so) if someone else wants to go...and I'll get like a tall 5 pump low water chai. I like a lot of the BAM spicy chai taste.
Ever since the Pumpkin Spice and GingerBread went away for the season, I have been drinking the Cinnamon Dolce Latte with nonfat, extra whip and 2 shots of expresso. I am bored with that. I drink Fraps from time to time. But I want a good hot drink for those cold mornings.
What is your original hot Starbucks drink?
Grande Skim Decaf Caramel Macchiato, although lately I prefer the iced version much better.
And of course, my tried and true, Americano, because it does the job, and has nearly no calories.
Venti 7 pump Vanilla 7 pump Chai Soy No Water. I switch up the milks all the time. Sometimes I don't feel like the soy.

Sorry, I posted it like I order it and didn't explain what it was. Chai is black tea in cooked milk (however Starbucks uses steamed milk) w/ spices and optional sweetners.
The drink in detail is as follows:
Venti Vanilla Chai Latte (Standard drink consists of Vanilla Syrup, Chai Syrup and Lowfat Milk and sometimes water)
+2 Extra Pumps of Chai
+2 Extra Pumps of Vanilla
-Lowfat Cow Milk
+Soy Milk
-Water
What's with all the "nonfat" brouhaha. I don't get it.
I was in the coffee shop the other day. Dude comes out of a BMW, a cookie cutter yuppie, he is in decent shape and he somehow ends up ahead of me in the line.
I've been loading up on straight from the cow milk over and over, and am still wearing a 30-31 waist pants. I'm not dead.
I've sworn off the starbucks cult. Their coffee makes me sick these days anyway, like some genie went into the stomach. Give me authentic local coffee shops any day.
I still go to starbucks. Am a mug collector. But if I were to drink the eeww they serve, I'll take a white chocolate mocha with "real" milk.
Me too! But in cold weather I do like it hot---black and strong!
Sounds like my wife except she likes it Brown and Strong.
