Seasonal Drinks

Winter brings on hot chocolates, (milk) teas, Horlicks and coffee. And coffee just wouldn't be coffee without mentioning Starbucks. I kinda hate the publicity it gets and feel a need to find a better (and cheaper) place to get a delicious warm drink...

Anyways, it's time for Starbucks to pull out their seasonal drinks. I stopped by one during my break in class to get a gingerbread latte


I'm greeted by red and white and the usual green decorations. Decals on the windows and a small table filled with holiday gift ideas. Even the menus were switched to red backgrounds with white text. — Now that gets me into the holiday spirit. 


It was my first time trying a gingerbread latte, and I give it a neutral rating. These seasonal drinks are always tricky, I have no idea how they taste like until I buy it.
Then I saw...:
11/18 - 11/21 Buy a holiday beverage at a participating Starbucks, get another one for free!
You're gonna see me visit another Starbucks sometime soon. With a friend. Maybe you will too.



no pictures, boohoo.

Saw that Sbux deal too! Definitely stopping by for some pumpkin spice latte and maybe the gingerbread one.

Tried the gingerbread and peppermint mocha.
Gingerbread was ok but not great, I preferred the peppermint mocha.
