It's very rare that I hit up Starbucks these days because of McDonalds' Iced Coffee. Cheaper and more convenient. I'm more of a plain coffee kinda gal. Just good coffee. None of this skinny/non-fat/soy latte/macchiato crap for me.
Ewwww..... Me and one of my sisters tried that one night and promptly threw out and got soda instead! lol!!!

McDonalds of Hawaii uses only Kona Coffee. It could be that you and your sisters were drinking shit coffee.

When it comes to coffee, I'll pay $2.71 for good coffee instead of $4.50 just for the name.

my fav is a caramael frapaccino, lite, no whip.

i don't get the often (maybe once every 6 months?) because even the smallest one has a zillion calories.

This goes for any of the gazillion espresso stands in Seattle: I drink nonfat lattes and Americanos with a bit of half-and-half, and in the summer, iced nonfat lattes with just two pumps of sugar free vanilla syrup. I don't go for the super sweet stuff, and from the time I spent working at Starbucks up here when I was in college, I'd say that's pretty typical in Seattle (except for the caramel macchiato fans).

I don't know many people that drink frappuccinos...they were created by Starbucks to pull in young customers, and boy did it work. There is actually A LOT of caffeine in the coffee/mocha ones. And as the poster before me noted, a lot of calories, too.

Tip for those of you who order "light" vanilla lattes at Starbucks: "light" vanilla at Starbucks means half the amount of syrup. It doesn't mean nonfat/skim. Just in case anyone didn't know that

Vente non-fat chai latte. It's breakfast, in and of itself.

I like their iced mochas in the summer and I enjoy their baked goods, but there's not much else I like.

Peppermint Hot Chocolate
Mocha Valencia (and it kills me that they've replaced the valencia syrup with a too-sweet orange syrup)

Also, I refuse to buy into Starbuck's nomenclature, so I specifically ask for a small, medium or large coffee. Does anyone else do that?
