    I rarely drink coffee, so I never bother to go to starbuck, but I decide I want to give it a try, and I don't know what I should order, what's the best drinks that starbuck has to offer? Addict to it is fine with me, as long as it will give me happy.

    Thanks

    happy...... ending?

    I just stick with the regular coffee grande with 2 cream & 2 sugers. I don't like the fancy stuff.

    I'm not joking, I honestly refuse to go to Starbucks. I have never bought anything there.

    Starbucks doesn't offer high end coffee. The coffee beans they buy cost about 3 dollars a bag, which can make about 50 cups of coffee, and they sell them to you for 5 dollar a cup. That's why there are so many Starbucks out there, because they make so much profits.

    For good coffee, you got to go to the traditional coffee house.

    Best Starbucks coffee is the plain ol' coffee Frappuccino.

    When I feel like being a pretentious indie snob though, I choose small coffee houses. Being in college, they're easy to find. I hang out at Common Grounds every weekend with my friends, and I usually get the Rodeo Clown there, which is an iced shaken flavored coffee with skim milk. Very, very good. Especially with cinnamon coffee.

    I like the Strawberries N Cream drink. Its loaded with calories though. I drink on occasion, like if I've been walking in the desert for a long time.
