Best Starbucks drink?

I enjoy the taste of coffee. i don't enjoy avoiding commercial entities because it might me look cool to be anti-establishment and drink something someone is pushing because they're "craft and local" :)

There’s. Commercial entities like Seattle and Vida that actually do know how to brew a decent coffee though, without burning everything.

Plus, all those syrups and creams and stuff that Seattle offers, that’s just there to disguise the low quality of their coffee.

I don’t avoid them because I’m trying to be cool, I just really don’t think they make decent coffee, and it seems to be universal, no matter where in the world you buy seatle, they burn the coffee and the milk.

I've got a CW Voucher from an unnamed source that I need to burn through. Will be making a turn to Starbuck/Starbucks later when I'm there.

Can any of the Starbucks fanboys recommend a lekker drink?

The Caramel Frappuccino does speak to me, anything else you guys can advise?

Not a fussy drinker, I just like something tasty that "goes down well", level of sweetness does not bother me.

Done & dusted.

Considering it was "free money" I decided on Starbuck/Starbucks.

Tall Java Chip frappuccino, with cream. 67 buck.

Goes done pretty well, fairly pricey what it is. Well presented. Frappuccino chips gives a sweet crunch at the end.

7/10.

Side note:

Mike is my white man name, nothing to read into.

Caramel Macchiato, hot or cold but I prefer the hot.
 
This thread turned me ghey.

Jokes aside - unless you have vouchers to buy fast food and beverages - make them at home. Invest in a good coffee machine. It will save you 100's of 1000's of rands over the decades.

Same with takeout food. Get good kitchen appliances and cook them yourself - it will be much cleaner and a ton healthier. I never could understand the need to buy dirty food that will cost you more in health and QoL in the long run.

People will say "Oh but I don't have time" - Perhaps look at what you are spending your time on and go from there.

Seems like you judging them too harshly from a small Control group of experimental beverages drunk by you.

Seattle Coffee varies by location slightly just like every other international brand.
 
Coffee frapp 5/10
It’s decent but you don’t taste much coffee. Their iced lattes are better than this.
