[07.17.06 entry, revisited...]
Just curious… what’s everyone’s ‘standard’ Starbucks order?

For Grace+I, depending on environmental conditions and mood:
- Grande light-iced non-fat Chai Latte w/ 1 honey
- Grande Iced Coffee w/ half+half and 2.5 packs of Splenda

tall or grande iced decaf nonfat white choco mocha, no whip
yummy [:
new favorite is espresso con panna (espresso shot with whipped cream.. but light on the cream)- with a sprinkle of nutmeg and sugar on top. my usuals are tall, upside-down, non-fat caramel machiatto or tall house.
ps: where are your wedding photos! you guys must have had a fantabulous wedding.
tall soy chai latte w/splenda
tall zen with half hot half cold water
or
grande lemonade mixed with black ice tea
i thought i was high-maintenance with my soy chai, no water, but apparently i am not.
my favourite green tea latte
Grande Chai Tea Latte
great, now I want one..
chai tea latte, no water, extra pump & extra hot w/ 2% milk.
if you are a chai tea latte fan, you must try one from The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf. It’s one of the most popular coffee places in southern cal (one avaliable in san francisco on market street). they use real tea leaves to brew and use their signature sugar powder than granulated sugar (very interesting). nonetheless, this is a must try beverage! it’s the best chai tea latte ever – guaranteed!
grande iced chai, or tall house coffee.
tall or grande ice caramel machiatto, extra caramel and light ice
=)
grande peppermint soy mocha~
calm..
grande easy ice chai tea no water latte
or
grande easy ice black iced tea w/2 pumps of valencia
seattlelites are serious about their coffee:)! (i’m an ex-seattlelite and an ex-starbucks employee. i worked at the one across from belle square.) what i have depends on the weather. i live in az, so right now, i have anything COLD! i like a simple grande lite-iced, non-fat latte with two raw sugars. fun question!

tall soy no water chai or iced grande with melon syrup green tea lemonade.
My ultimate fave is green tea frap. : P..
medium drip [everyday before work] or medium vanilla americano with room. ‘medium’ because it’s from peet’s. i once ordered a ‘grande’ and got a stange look from the barista. never will i make that mistake again as a san franciscan.
grande iced vanilla soy latte
tall iced coffee sub classic syrup for caramel with room for half and half. or double tall 2% carmel machiato with extra carmel sauce (the important thing is there must be foam…) you take your first slurp and it’s a mixture of flavors in your mouth.

wow, this is amazing. 50 comments in less than 12 hours, i may have to share this with our beverage team…absolutely fascinating how many variations and unique drinks people have. excellent post, ghkim.
i want to go through and correct everyone’s drink order in starbuckese….tempted but i will hold back…that will take too much time.
my drinks…
when i’m sitting and reading – tall 2 pump toffee nut no room americano.
when i’m walking around and it’s cold - double tall 1 pump toffee nut 2% no whip 2 pump white mocha.
when i’m walking around and it’s hot – grande no whip strawberry bananas and creme frappuccino blended creme or a grande sweetened iced coffee with a splash of whole milk.
nice survey! i’ll always take a tall soy latte… but if i’m low on cash, i’ll take an ice americano (and add my own cream and splenda at that bar thing).
Venti, nonfat caffe latte with chocolate, two raw sugars, nutmeg, iced.
Venti Vanilla Bean frap, three scoops of chocolate chips, heavy caramel and mocha syrup, and caramel on the bottom of the cup.
Oh, and I work at starbucks. Making the mocha is fun.
Feel free to comment back. All of you.
hm I’m going to starbucks in a little while and I’m ordering an Iced Grande Nonfat Sugarfree Vanilla Latte. good stuff.
And I thought that was a complicated order..
On hot days I like a iced, tall, non-fat, vanilla, latte or iced tall soy chai. On cold days I like a tall, nonfaf, extra, vanilla latte or a tall, nonfat, extra-hot, no water chai.
You obviously have a ton of Starbuck drinkers… So I would like to add that I always get the Grande Non-Fat Vanilla Latte with a double shot of expresso…
tall extra hot skim vanilla latte ( easy on the vanilla) . on hot days…just make the same drink cold =)
tired days: all ice vanilla americano
december: grande non-fat 180 degree peppermint mocha or pumpkin spice latte (w/no foam)
sick days: one calm tea bag in a grande cup, steeped for just a few seconds
other days: tall non-fat 180 degree caramel machiatto
During the holidays…its a tall decaf half non-fat, half soy pumpkin spice latte 140 degrees in a grande cup. I need the grande cup so the coffee doesn’t spill over in my stroller. I am so craving this drink right now. Why can’t they have pumpkin spice latte all year long?!?

Warm weather: Iced grande hazelnut americano w/ creme
Cold weather: Grande hazelnut americano w/ creme
A scone.
There has to be another Seattlite out there who agrees with me on this one: Starbucks coffee is often times slightly watery.
tall mild drip w/ room
I prefer cafe ladro or uptown espresso, but when i HAVE to order from sbux, I’ll get the double tall latte w/ raw sugar or vanilla syrup.
i used to be all about the sugar free soy venti latte…that or an americano with room. but these days, i’m pretty content to drink drip coffee.
tall chai latte
haha wow. so specific! tall hot cocoa with lots of whip for me.

Dude, keep it real. and simple!
Tall drip, double cup.
I love my Grande no water no foam extra hot chai tea latte’s and my iced no room white chocolate americanos…
actually, not coffee.
i order a tall hot water and have tea (yes i’m cheap it’s tea i packed in my purse – i’m a tea packer), and to make up for it, i order with my hot water a pastry – usually a chocolate/mint brownie or pumpkin scone. mmmm…
your injury stories are horrible!
starbucks: tall toffee nut creme
story: my dad made a last min decision to go see the passion of the christ. we had about three mins until the movie started, so i was told to get ready as fast as i could. i threw on whatever i could find when halfway out the door, i realized that my pants were too big and it wasnt going to work out. i went back to my room to grab a belt so i could put it on in the car, but it slipped out of my hands. i stepped back to reach for it, before i realized that the belt had landed upside down and i had stepped into the hook. i lifted my foot and the belt came along with me. i took it out and had a hole in my foot. it was a bloody mess. i didnt know what to do, so i got tissues, a bandaid, went to the movies, and afterwards… saw a doctor and got a tetanus shot.
now, the cravings begin… mmmm.
I wonder what the longest starbucks order is..
