Don't worry, not all the choices are PSL (Pumpkin Spice Latte for those of you who aren't fluent in "basic white girl").
If You LOVE Pumpkin
Pumpkin Spice Latte
Everybody knows about the obsession all the girls have over this drink, and to be honest with you, you should be obsessed (in fact, I'm drinking it right now)! This drink has the right amount of spice so it's not to sweet, and the right amount of flavor so you can't taste the bitterness of the caffeine. With the PSL comes the optimum posting opportunity as well, Starbucks even made the drink it's own Twitter (which yes, does follow me). You can tweet the account pictures of you and your friends drinking the latte and maybe even get featured (just make sure you use the hashtag #PSLisBack)!
I think this is something I'm way too proud of...
If You're Into Chai
Oprah's Teavana Cinnamon Chai Tea Latte
Oprah does this thing where she designs drinks for Starbucks, and I think it's pretty awesome! The drinks she has created in the past have been stellar, and I drank them often. This drink though has got to be my favorite. It doesn't contain too much cinnamon so you're not overwhelmed by the flavor. I definitely prefer this drink hot, especially due to the weather. Props to Oprah for being a Starbucks master!
You get a latte, and you get a latte, everybody gets a latte!!
If You Want to Try Something New
Toasted Graham Latte
Starbucks just came out with a new drink this fall, and I think this is another great seasonal latte (along with the PSL). I have only had this drink once, but based off of that one time I think I can formulate a somewhat accurate opinion (let's be real, this is the internet... nothing is usually accurate). The flavor is very consistent with a graham cracker BUT it does not taste like a s'more (it does not have a marshmallowy or chocolatey taste)! This is a good drink if you're looking to try new flavors.
If It's Christmas Time All Year Long for You
Hot Chocolate
I don't know about you, but normally I only have hot chocolate during the winter time (specifically during the holidays). Hot Chocolate seems like something most people indulge in when Christmas is approaching. There's something about hot chocolate that makes it so special, that makes you feel like you're drinking a warm cup of cheer. Sometimes the right cup of hot coco is good for the soul, no matter what time of year.
If You're Holding onto the Last Shred of Summer
Shaken Sweet Tea Lemonade
Summer has been officially over for a week now, but I understand if you're still wishing for the warmer weather back. Fall is a hard season to commit to (believe me, I know). Although the clothes are really cute, autumn also brings school and all the stress that comes with it. I could see where you could find sanity in believing summer never ended. This drink is AMAZING (it's like an Arnold Palmer, but even better)! I would order this drink all the time over the summer. It was my go-to Starbucks pick-me-up (yes, it was THAT important). If you want a little summer in a glass, you came to the right place.
Thank you for taking the time to read my latest blog post! I know this one isn't really college student specific, but I was hoping you would enjoy it anyways. Let me know what you thought and if I should just stick to topics for college life. I know this post is directed towards Starbucks drinkers, but with my obsession with their menu, I really couldn't help it (sorry not sorry)! If you haven't tried Starbucks before, I think you should definitely go at least once (but don't blame me if you become as obsessed as I am- I'm warning you).
Happy coffee running! Stay preppin', stay smilin', and most importantly, stay dreamin' With Love, Maria
