    It's about 50/50 for me. I normally do try and get the light roast if I'm at a Starbucks, but sometimes they're out.

    I wasn't into Starbucks much before I found out I had celiac disease, but they know what's in their stuff and it's the same stuff no matter where you go, and I like that about them. They will also sanitise the pitcher once they're sure you understand that it will take more time. This is important because some of their syrups have gluten and it doesn't rinse out, but sanitising gets it out.

    I do not care about PSL.

    I am white peppermint mocha girl.

    Here's something amazing: java chip frappuchino but with the white mocha flavoring. Still pretty rich, but not quite as overwhelming as the normal java chip is for me.

    also from that other thread about the coffee being possibly burnt/old, generally what you are tasting is the fact that starbucks default espresso is a really dark roast

    but also if you drink drip coffee and just happen to see a little red flashing light on the big coffee urns, that actually tells you that that coffee has been sitting out for a long time and should have been changed a while ago. in that case, I'd go ahead and recommend that if you have a bit more time to order a pour over, which usually doesn't cost extra.

    things definitely can get busy and hectic at starbucks, but keeping the drip coffee fresh doesn't have a whole lot of excuse in my personal opinion, it's something that ought to be worked into the basic routine of the store, so I don't think it's being harsh to politely bring it up to a manager if it's a consistent problem.

    Today I got a green tea matcha creme frappe at Starbucks and holy shit it was good. Too bad I probably shouldn't have had it since green tea reacts badly with my blood pressure meds. I just forgot =_=

    Iced passion tea lemonade is a pretty good pick imo, It used to be my default choice. Although it's kinda bitter if you don't ask for sweetened
