Starbucks people, what's your usual?

[Deleted]

Mine is a venti quad iced latte. When I want to be fancy, I add sugar free vanilla syrup.

What's your usual?

[penguingrrl]

Triple grande nonfat no foam latte. I like to taste the coffee itself, not just the milk, and don't like sweet coffee at all.

[lattelady5]

Venti Cinnamon dolce latte, soy.

If I want something iced I just do iced coffee with a little hazelnut.

[momin2013]

Tall Caramel Macchiato. If I'm feeling fancy, a Tall White Chocolate Mocha.

[mamaalysson]

When I could drink coffee: double tall 2% latte.
Now: tall chai latte.

[quesyrah]

Grande iced coffee, classic syrup and whole milk. If available, cold brew instead

[melew]

Tall vanilla, no foam latte.

[ashb62]

I'm a coffee drinker, but I don't care for Starbucks coffee.

When it's cold, I get a tall chai tea latte.

When it's warm, I usually get a green tea frappuccino or, for a real treat, a double chocolate chip frappuccino.

[quesyrah]

Oh and when we have a free item reward we get a venti iced caramel macchiato (to share).

[abs]

Coffee, black.

In the summer I usually splurge on a frappacino once every few weeks. The s'mores and salted caramel mocha ones are my favorites but seasonal.

[gastro]

Short decaf extra shot soy latte.
Or tall decaf Americano with a heavy splash of milk or soy milk (they use a vanilla soy milk so if I'm craving a little sweetness).

Do you use the Starbucks app? I've gotten many free drinks after starting to use the app.

How do you earn free drinks on the app?

We use a registered Starbucks card via the app. Maybe we just don't go often enough?

[gastro]

I think it's every 10 or 12 drinks? I go about 3x a week.

Doesn't chai have caffeine or is coffee cut out for a different reason?

You get a reward every 12 drinks but you have to be "Gold level" for rewards to count. You need 30 stars to get there so 42 stars (bags of coffee, drinks) to get a free drink. Lol Then every 12.

[Deleted]

I'm a gold card holder and it's every 12 stars. Can use rewards for food or drink. On a side note, their breakfast sandwiches are delish!!!

I don't like coffee so I always get white hot chocolate or a smoothie.

Try a hot apple blast.

Yes, it has caffeine, but not as much as coffee. And, for whatever reason, even caffeinated tea doesn't trigger a migraine like coffee does. After two months of NO CAFFEINE, that was a happy discovery. :-)

I usually get a grande Pike Place and a bacon gouda sandwich on my way to work on Saturday mornings.
If I go in the afternoon I will usually get a mocha with whipped cream in the summer and coffee Frappuccino in the summer.

Chai latte

Nearest Starbucks is 40 minutes away though.

[trizzie]

Trenta shaken black iced tea, unsweet with 4 splenda and one pump classic.

It is! You must try one

[cna]

Grande mocha frappuccino or mocha hot coffee. Easy peasy.

Yes! It is so good! There is also a cheddar croissant sandwich that looks really good. I always forget to try it though.

[quesyrah]

Yum, I saw a BBQ brisket sandwich advertised at one I don't normally go to that looked really good

I was told they don't always have this? Use to be my favorite, haven't seen it in years.

[dizzycooks]

I may need to go get coffee after I grocery shop this morning.
