Starbucks drinks

In every season, Starbucks drinks have their own tastes and colors. In this article, I will talk about some of the most popular drinks.

Summer drinks

When I started to work in Starbucks I had the opportunity to taste all summer drinks, the most popular are fresh, some are sweet like frappuccinos and others with a fruit base. I tried also some iced tea, and I can say that is very cool.

In this post, I want to share with you the most request fruit drinks. If you have spent a summer day and want to drink a special cold drink, you can try:

1) Strawberry & Lime:

A refreshing drink made with green tea mixed with strawberry concentrate. Then all is blended after adding the ice cubes. To finish the drink is served with a straw.

2) Tropical Mango:

A refreshing drink made with black tea mixed with mango concentrate. Then all is blended after adding the ice cubes. To finish the drink is served with a straw.

 

Halloween drink

London in the Halloween period is decorated with pumpkins everywhere, in every street. Even Starbucks to celebrate Halloween wants to charm its customers with the new drink called Phantom Frappuccino.

This totally black cold drink is vegan and has a unique taste. Inside it is composed of a mixture of fruity ingredients: coconut milk, mango juice, and lime slime. And also it has a dark coconut whipped cream on top, made with coconut milk and black coal powder.

 

The Classic Hot Chocolate

The winter is coming and you can’t renounce to taste a delicious hot drink. One of the most popular hot drinks requested from our customers in Starbucks is the Classic Hot Chocolate, made with milk, mocha sauce, and whipped cream on top. This drink is perfect for everyone, even for children, and I often suggest it when a family asks me for advice.

This is one of my favorite drinks. I love the mocha sauce, and why don’t ask for more pumps inside the cup?

Keep warm your body with this sweet drink and enjoy it in one of our comfortable armchairs.

The Starbucks’ Berry Hot Chocolate, made with love!

Starbucks has launched a new lovely hot chocolate, available for a short period: The Berry hot chocolate!

It is combined with raspberry syrup, milk, chocolate and topped with a delicious raspberry-infused cold pink foam, to make happy every hot chocolate fan and to celebrate this Valentine’s day with love.
I tasted this yummy drink with a sweet heart-shaped biscuit, another symbol for this day of love that you can find in every Starbucks store.

But to be in love means to share this sentiment every day, with your girlfriend or your boyfriend, but also with your family, your children, your best friend. For this reason, I like to remember one of the famous campaigns launched by Starbucks during the past years: “Meet Me at Starbucks”. I will write a new post on this topic

And your favorite Frappuccino is…?

As I have already written before, the most popular beverage in the Starbucks store is the Frappuccino, a drink that you can personalize if you want. In this post, I describe three types of them.

First of all, I would like to explain how I imagine preparing a frappuccino:

I think that is like an assembly line and after having understood all the steps to be done, harmony is created with every colleague. And like the musical notes that together create a sound that amuses your ears, so the work of all bartenders creates a drink that delights the palate of the customers.

Here they are:

Cookies and Cream Frappuccino: 

It is an amazing drink prepared with whole milk, cream base, ice, cookie crumble into a blender, whipped cream and cookie crumble on top. It is perfect for everyone, especially because is without coffee.

Strawberry Donut Cream Frappuccino: 

It is a fantastic cold drink made with whole milk, cream base, ice, donut crumble, strawberry sauce, whipped cream, and strawberry topping. It is one of the most request frappuccinos from every young girl or guy, and not only.

Caramel Frappuccino:

Is a sweet and creamy beverage, blended with whole milk, coffee base, ice, caramel syrup, whipped cream, and caramel sauce on top. This is my favorite frappuccino, and  I love the caramel flavor in everything.

And you? What kind of frappuccino do you prefer? 

Blond or dark?

Are you curious to know what this question means?

Are two different types of Espresso beans. Each espresso blend has its own unique roast profile, and if you can’t start your workday without drinking a good coffee, now your choice can make your day very special:

The Blonde Espresso Roast, launched from Starbucks and made from Latin American and East African coffee beans for a new experience coffee, is lighter, with a natural sweet taste and a smooth flavor, but with more caffeine.

The Signature Espresso Roast has a bold, rich, and an intense flavour, and is made with dark roasted beans from Latin America and the Asia/Pacific region. 

Main differences:

-The Blonde Espresso Roast: lighter roast, citrus, smooth and subtly sweet.

-The Signature Espresso Roast: darker roast, rich, and intense.

To try a full Blonde Espresso experience, there are three new drinks, in particular:
