Their scones are good too!

But they stopped making their Herb Cheese scone! It was incredibly unhealthy, but it made my damn mouth water it tasted to good.

Yes, I would definitely try their's if I could. Because I don't really discrimihate when it comes to coffee. I just have favorites that I prefer when I can get them. I really have come to enjoy making good coffee at home more in the last couple years, though. Probably something to do with age.

The biggest earl grey latte they make!

OMGz, I have discovered tea lattes in the last month or so. I can't drink coffee anymore (not even a sip, my throat starts to close ), so I've been slamming black iced tea by the gallon.

Now that the cold weather is here, I've found the joy of tea lattes, including Earl Grey and my new fave, the smoky, almost-coffee-like Lapsang Souchong.

White chocolate mocha if I do Starbucks, which is rare. McDonald's hooked me with their caramel mocha. Still longing for 7-11! Say hi to Chico for me John, I'm still trying to be there this summer! BTW, a man looks so hot with whipped cream on his upper lip....I would not be revoking cards lol.

The McDonalds caramel mocha is sweeeeeet! Yum.

The Starbucks parfaits are delicioso too. Nonfat yogurt with fresh fruit and granola....so tasty in the A.M. But honestly the $4 is too much.

I started making my own at home....voila!

Either the hazelnut or chai latte.

dunkin donuts are great when u have a ton of coupons to get them for 99 cents

I do enjoy chai but I generally don’t brew my own, no. I’m not sure why that is.

I stick to fairly basic black teas, but with all the different kinds (Ceylon, English breakfast, Darjeeling, Assam, etc.) I get such a nice variety.

I’m also fairly caffeine sensitive, so I generally only make one pot (3 tea cups worth) on weekends and one 16 oz. thermos for weekdays. I really could add more variety in now and again.

Yep. I think you could get along with The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf And that's not even their menu, just what you can order online. Looks like they have some menu exclusives, too.

Liquid cocaine, that's all it is.

Liquid and legal ~ take it with you anywhere you go! LoL like their new packets of "instant" coffee. Really didn't realize the value of those until I had an early morning meeting last week and no coffee in the bulding (true) -- man I would have given $5 for one little packet of starbucks via.

the ones with coffee and chocolate

kinda hard to venture away from what we know we like...

Cerebus said:

A grande black eye in a venti cup (coffee with two shots of espresso - and I order a size down in the bigger cup so I get the full size I paid for, but still have room for my non-fat milk).

Or, get ready. A quad, grande, non-fat, no whip, light chocolate mocha. In the winter I sometimes order a quad, mint, grande, non-fat, no whip, light chocolate mocha. And in the summer sometimes it's raspberry.

Wow, I recently noticed they were downsizing their drinks! glad you mentioned this, I'll try it.

Your drink sounds mega-strong! Hair on your chest much?

I've been in a Starbucks once

I think I got lemonade or tea

Try going back again, I warn, its habit forming.

Are there no Starbucks in your area? What about Pete's coffee, they're good too?

Been there 3rice ... no consuming desire to return

I make coffee at home more now than ever, even if I'm taking it with me (a good thermos changed my mind about all that). I probably only go to a Starbucks or Peet's three or four times a month these days. But there have been times when I was working someplace where the work coffee was crap and one of those coffee shops was on the next block (or literally right across the street, which happened with a Peet's) when I was going as many as ten times a week (just for regular coffees, and the Peet's would give me the refill price if I brought my cup back for the second trip). The number of times I've been to some kind of coffee shop is easily in the thousands. Probably approaching five thousand since I got heavily into coffee in my early twenties. Don't think I haven't considered what all that coffee cost, either.

Hi is Caribou a brand?

I never go to Starbucks -- I don't drink coffee and they don't sell diet Coke so there's no point.

Tripple grande soy latte. I get it everyday to wake me up b4 heading into work...

Mmm... I love those too!

americano .. large .. or a latte ..

Caramel Macchiato or Strawberries and cream.

I gotta try this salted caramel hot chocolate though. It sounds great!
