2Starbucks Vanilla Latte Hot Drink

The Starbucks vanilla latte is a sweet way to get your caffeine fix. While you can select from a wide selection of awesome flavored syrups to add to your latte, the vanilla syrup is one of the most popular requests that Starbucks baristas report adding to their customers’ lattes.

When you get your drink, sprinkle some raw sugar on top. Be careful to wait until this beverage has cooled down to drinking temperature because you won’t be able to fully enjoy this incredible liquid version of a warm sugar cookie if your tongue is burnt!

7Soy Chai Tea Latte Starbucks Hot Drink

Although you can order a Chai tea latte with any type of milk, this beverage is particularly delicious with soy milk because soy milk perfectly compliments the warm spices in the Chai tea.

You should try to enjoy this popular drink leisurely rather than rushing through it so that you can get the full effect!

Although this is a beverage, it tastes exactly like the incredible Nutella spread and it is just as addictive!

22Cool Lime Starbucks Refreshers

The Starbucks Refreshers are a series of fruity and refreshing cold drinks that Starbucks offers to customers who may not be in a traditional coffee flavor mood, but who still want the benefits of caffeine from coffee beans. Starbucks uses Green Coffee Extract to give these fruity beverages a boost of caffeine, but the extract does not contain any of the toasty coffee flavorings that accompany traditional coffee beverages. The cool lime flavor is one of Starbuck’s most popular flavors because it is the perfect combination of tangy and sweet. You should definitely give this one a try if you are in the mood for something fruity and energizing!

23Strawberries & Creme Frappuccino

Starbucks makes incredible frappucinos and the strawberries & creme flavor has become one of their most popular.

28Iced Coffee Starbucks

Iced coffee is a very standard cold drink, but it is so incredibly refreshing! If you want, you can request flavored syrup to personalize your drink. If you want to add a little milk or cream, don’t forget to ask your barista to leave a little bit of extra space in your cup so that you can add your desired amount.

29Mocha Light Frappuccino

Frappuccinos have not become one of Starbucks’ most popular menu items because of their low-calorie count. The reality is that many of these drinks are very sugary and not something you should treat yourself to every day if you want to continue to fit into your jeans. However, Starbucks has created lower-calorie options that taste almost as good as the real thing! In particular, the mocha light frappuccino maintains its flavor integrity especially well, in spite of the ingredient changes that make it lower in calories. If you want to treat yourself, but prefer to do so in a healthier way, you should definitely consider trying out the mocha light frappuccino from Starbucks!

30Iced Chai Tea Latte

Starbucks makes an incredible hot Chai Tea Latte, but this drink is just as good over ice! If you are looking for a beverage that is not too sweet but packs a lot of flavor, you should definitely try this one out! You can also ask your barista to add some vanilla-flavored syrup if you prefer your drink to be a little sweeter.

Starbucks Pistachio Latte
