I know, I know. Starbucks is evil and nobody should ever give them money for anything ever, and I'm going to Hell just for starting this thread.

But DAMN those Green Tea Frappucino thingies are good.

I need to figure out how to make this cracktacular treat at home, because this chit's expensive...if anyone else is curious about trying it, be careful. Once you get a taste, you're hooked.

My Chantico thread was better.

I think I give starbucks way too much money.

Maybe if they'd fire Michelle, I wouldn't go there so much....

hmmm... I have been eyeing them coyly, but I've yet to make my move.

don't do it! they're too good! resist!

Mocha Coconut Frappucino will always be my first love:



Green tea sounds good though. I may try it this weekend.

I will do my best. But it looks so yummy.

if by "better" you mean "a pale shadow", i couldn't agree with you more.

OdysseyMiles said:

i havent seen any here for ages i miss them

OdysseyMiles said:

that sounds good...there's not shaved coconut floating around in it though, is there? i hate that, it feels like someone put toenail shavings in my food.

The Green Tea Frappucino is the best thing they have!

I hope it's not one of their "seasonal" drinks, because I am addicted to them bitches.

I have been waiting and waiting for their slow asses to come out with a good green tea drink. I'm an obsessive green tea drinker (2-3 cups a day).

The Green Tea Frap tastes like green tea ice cream, almost...goddamn, you've got me craving one RIGHT NOW.

It has the green tea mochi flavor...if you have a Teavana near you, get the green tea mochi in a big ass cup. I had it in SF and it was the best damn cup of tea I've ever had in my life. I still salivate thinking of it.

I tried the Green Tea Lemonade today and it was good, too.

I mean, while you're packing in all the calories of a Starbucks frap you may as well get the Green Tea one, 'cause green tea is so good for you.

Goddamn you, Starbucks.

And goddamn you, Anx. Now I want one. Again.

i wish i DID have a teavana nearby, because that sounds damn good.

when i lived in new york, there was a great noodle shop in the west village that had the best green tea desserts - cake and ice cream - and the starbucks frappies taste SO much like those desserts. it's unfair, cuz they've got me hooked.



maybe if i could keep myself from getting the green tea fraps, i could make myself try one...i've been curious...

Anxiety said:

Well...it's not as tasty as the fraps, obviously...but if you are looking for something lighter, and something cheaper, go for the green tea lemonade.

thescandalouslife said:

maybe one day i will quit being a big fat jabbacino glutton and i'll make myself get the lemonade.

CarrieMpls said:

Me either...thought about it tho

MMMM Starbucks MMMMM

I got tired of wasting money on Starbucks and Jamba Juice, and I just quit going.

You always find ways to spend your money. You might as well enjoy if it's worth it to you!

God bless America. Nice cups and comfy sofas and straying further away from the good shit with every fancy shmancy product. Perfect audience for it though.

if there were more jamba juices around where i frequent, i'd probably blow lots of cash on them, too. they're yummy. i got one on that 105 degree day last weekend, and it was a lifesaving nectar of the gods.

Tasted one, was bland as fuck The green tea smoothie @ Jamba Juice is really good though

JEALOUS!!!

naw, seriously, i just picked up a pound of roasted yerba mate to combat my green tea frappo addiction - it's better for me, it has the same taste and satisfaction as coffee, and i can keep adding water to the same pot all day and have yerba mate coming out of my ears, so it's very economical. plus it's good without cream and with just a little sweetner, so it's nice and simple. once i get back on the yerba train, it's buh-bye starbucks.

Anxiety said:

Hey, you, share the wealth with another addict. What is this "roasted yerba mate" you speak of, and how do I get my hands on it?

Anxiety said:

There used to be .
Now, I think they just serve mocha frappucinos without the coconut shavings. They can, however, add some coconut "flavoring" (ya know, that syrupy stuff).

Who the fuck is Michelle! Are you cheating on me already?

My boyfriend spilled his on my brand new jeans a while ago, it stained

They are good though.
