Starbucks

I read the thread on Starbucks and couldn't really find an answer as to how to get a Mocha Decaf Latte'.
Or one from Dunkin Donuts.
Any one know?
thanks

Re: Starbucks

It's funny - I had to write down before I went Friday what I found online so I'd remember when I ordered. I got a Grande Triple Decaf Breve (heavy cream)Sugar Free Cinnamon Dolce no whip. Phew. They always seem to get it right even when I can't get it out yet McDonald's can't seem to EVER get an order right. Go figure!

I prob'ly won't do it often because I'm not sure how many servings of Splenda that would make that (or cream for that matter) - plus it's almost six bucks

Re: Starbucks

I think the breve latte's are made with half and half...??
You have to be careful with those, half the drink is half and half and WAYYYY more than we should be having... And a venti drink has 5 squirts of sf syrup... Yummy but it could lead to disaster! lol

Re: Starbucks

Oh, but I do go I get the sugar free vanilla breve latte...
I've heard that sugar free cinnamon dolce one is awesome though!!

Re: Starbucks

OH duh! Thanks for the tip! I had forgotten how much half-and-half must be in it! Maybe if you ask for it dry (more foam then liquid - see I'm learning the lingo!) it might be okay? And probably ask how many squirts of syrup they put in.

Re: Starbucks

Re: Starbucks

I'm so lost when it comes to coffee lingo! lol I used to get the SF caramocha at Borders. I'm pretty sure it has too many carbs for me now, but man it was good. I'd like to find something for an occasional treat, but I don't want to pay $5 for a cup of something that I won't like and I don't know the lingo to know what means what and how I can change it to fit my tastes/woe. Sigh...

Re: Starbucks

I know this is kinda off topic, but Starbucks paid for almost the entire funeral of my niece who died in a house fire last week, Tho they my be pumping us full of caffenine and sugar they sure did help a family in dire straights this week.
Thank you STARBUCKS!!

Re: Starbucks

That's wonderful! It's good to hear stuff like this about companies. It helps my decision on whether to caffeinate at Starbucks or some other place. I'm very very sorry to hear about your niece though. My condolences.

I still think they put crack in their coffee - it's so addicting! LOL!

Re: Starbucks

Wow, that's awesome!!!
I love Starbucks... sure their coffee is the friggin' BOMB, but they do a lot of good all around the world... How can you not love that?

gmprgrl - I agree about them adding crack! lol...

Re: Starbucks

Here's a starbucks' warning - their new herbal red tea latte has sugar in it. Sugar syrup. Fortunately Mr. Suzy noticed before we'd had more than a sip, but I was mad. They advertise it as tea latte. Maybe starbucks regulars expect lattes to have sugar syrup in them, I would expect it in a vanilla latte...but a herbal tea latte?

They make me really mad sometimes...
