Starbucks Frappuccino Coffee Drink — 

 

Starbucks Coffee -  Frappuccino Coffee Drink

   Starbucks has obviously become a mega sensation for all coffee drinkers across America. Starbucks has nailed the mass marketing, advertisement, and franchise strategies that have made the name-brand a part of many coffee drinkers every day vocabulary.

   Every visit to a Starbucks coffee shop that I make always ends in a very happy or gnashing your teeth experience. Unlike a McDonalds, Starbucks does not have a track record for consistency in their precise preparations of 'my' drink order with every visit.  For example, Friday's visit was the perfect mix of ice, sugar free vanilla, 2% milk, and three splenda's that resulted in the most immaculate creation, also known as 'my iced coffee'; but Saturdays order was completely botched with not enough 2% milk, melted ice, burnt tasting coffee, maybe one splenda, and no vanilla. After several visits of my feelings becoming hot and cold to Starbucks coffee, I decided to try an alternative to the coffee shop. 

    I was at Target and decided to try a Starbucks bottled Mocha Frappuccino Coffee Drink. I was in a bright mood that day, had some wishful thinking with my shopping, and decided just to go ahead and get the carton of four.  I got home, filled my class with ice, and started drinking the most well prepared mocha frappuccino coffee drink that I have ever tasted in my life (I am a coffee addict and drink about 10 cups of coffee a day on average). This Starbucks 9.5 fl oz. bottled Mocha Frappuccino was perfectly created and consistent through out those four bottles, and every bottle I have had since.

    It does have 180 calories. Those annoying little suckers can be worked off, along with your dinner, with only 20-30 minutes on the treadmill (which you should be doing that anyways). In reality those calories are measly nothings compared to the 1000+ calorie drinks that you order through the Starbucks drive through.

   If you buy them by the carton it is about 4 bucks.  Every sip is well work each penny; especially when Starbucks Coffee shops charges 4 bucks for just one drink.

   The bottle advertises the drink as a low fat creamy blend of Starbucks Coffee and milk. Honestly, I would still drink it if it said it had five week old milk in it. It really is that spectacular!

 

 

Go enjoy, you finger pushing happy brewers out there.

Super review. I may have to try this. I'm with lilsquibb on not being a coffee person, but you made this sound too good to not try.
