Have you tried the new Tea Lattes or Tea Infusions at Starbucks? Starbucks is finally having TeaTime!
I've had a couple of the Tea Lattes and I definitely like them. There are 3 flavors - Vanilla Rooibos, London Fog (made with Earl Grey tea), and Black Tea. All are made with Tazo teas. There are also 2 flavors of infusions (Chai tea mixed with juice) - Berry Chai and Apple Chai.
Here is what it said on my cup sleeve tonight:

Oh Starbucks - I love you! Thanks for the excellent suggestion - LOL!
I HAD to show you what the tea bag looks like. It's actually good quality loose-leaf tea packaged in a special infuser bag, much better and larger than the usual tea bag.
I tried the London Fog tonight, but it did confirm for me that I am not a big Earl Grey tea fan. I had the Vanilla Rooibos the other day and really liked it. I normally drink my tea unsweetened and these lattes automatically come with sweetened syrup (either Classic or Vanilla depending on the flavor you get) - 4 pumps in a Grande. That is a little too sweet for me personally, so tonight I asked for 2 pumps instead. It was good and let the tea flavor really come through, though I might actually like 3 pumps of syrup. And I'm sure I could ask for sugar-free syrup instead. Starbucks is nice that way - making it any way I like!
I haven't tried the tea infusions so can't give you any thoughts on those.
Have you tried any of the new tea drinks at Starbucks? What did you think?
Sounds yummy! I will definitely have to try them :o) I will be near Starbucks today. So I know where I'll be going for a special little pick me up! The nearest one is 45 mins from my house.
ReplyDeleteBTW, I was able to fix your soup on Sunday. It was very yummy! I have pics up on my blog :o)
Hmmm my husband got a Starbucks card for his Birthday. I may have to try one of those out. Nah! I'll just get coffee! LOL.
ReplyDeleteMaybe another time though!!!!
Blessings to you my sweet friend.

I haven't tried them for the following reasons: I really don't like Earl Grey...or Rooibos. I don't drink my tea sweetened at all most of the time. I make better tea at home most days. Why I WILL eventually try one? I'm bound to meet a friend there, and will have to drink something!

ReplyDeleteI just reacently tried a tea fusion - a berry one. Very good. I also like their Vanilla Chai Latte.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by today. I'm a chocoholic myself! I may have to try this Friday meme.
Have a blessed weekend.
