I have never been to Starbucks before, what should I order? :)?

Question

I'm a girl from Denmark, and I have heard some very good things about Starbucks, so I figured that I wanted to try something out when I'm going to Amsterdam in about 3 weeks.

Do you have any good suggestions on what to get there?

I'm only talking about things you can drink :)

Answer 1

Well that depends.  What kinds of things do you like?  Do you like just plain coffee?  Ours is good (obviously or we wouldn't be so big) but it is pretty strong (at least for Americans lol I don't see many people from other countries wussing out when they come in.  Kudos for knowing what a cappuccino actually is!).  Our lattes are very popular and you can get those will all kinds of flavors like, to name the more popular ones,: vanilla, hazelnut, caramel, cinnamon dolce, white mocha, and mocha.  Both the mochas come with whipped cream and are pretty sweet.  The caramel macchiato is also really popular but that's made a little differently, the espresso is added almost last so it sits on top of the drink instead of all mixed in and the flavor changes as you drink (if you don't stir it anyway).

Or if you're in the mood for something cold we can do any of the aforementioned drinks over ice!  Or how 'bout a frappuccino?  Those are kind of like a light milkshake and come in a bunch of flavors, with or without coffee.  Strawberries and creme is big and so is the caramel frappuccino.  I personally like the mocha with a lot of whipped cream (if you mix it in it tastes like tiramisu ^_^).  

If you're looking for something healthier, you could try out our new Vivanno line.  We have that in either the orange mango banana blend or the the banana chocolate blend.  They're kind of like smoothies but a little odd because they're not that sweet and have the consistency of cake batter.

There are plenty of teas, hot or iced that are great if you don't like coffee, also the frappuccinos mentioned and a few hot drinks too.  There's the vanilla creme (kind of like drinking tapioca or vanilla pudding), hot chocolate, and my personal favorite: the caramel apple spice!  Basically apple cider with whipped cream and caramel drizzle and full of goodness.

Answer 2

Their coffee is overpriced with what you get.

Order this - "Venti Shaken Ice Tea Lemonade, passion fruit, sweetened."   They will be impressed with your ordering and you will really enjoy.

Their new blended lemonades are ok but you can ask them to add strawberry; also a great choice.

Answer 3

I like the carmel lattes. :)

Answer 4

Go to Dunkin Donuts instead.  They are the best.  I hate Starbucks because their coffee is so strong and to me it  taste burnt.  (here come the thumbs down.  Don't care everyone)

Answer 5

Starbucks is the place for coffee. They also have oringina there (soz if i spelt it wrong) and i love that and they also have good hot chocolate.

Answer 6

My choices:

- cafe mocha (hot)

- iced vanilla latte

- passion iced tea

- caramel affogato (cold)

- signature hot chocolate

- coffee jelly frappucino

Hope that helps!

Answer 17

I'm not sure if they still sell them but I like the Italian sodas.  They have fruit flavours like raspberry, peach, and others but I like caramel. Cafe mocha is my second favourite, but I love chocolate so much.  If you want something cold, caramel frappuccinos are nice... or the mint chocolate frappuccino.

Answer 20

i agree with the first poster, they have great coffee

Answer 21

order a chocolate or cream based java chip

it is lovely

you can have it with coffee

or chocolate

cream based is my favorite

Answer 22

caramel Macchiato and cinnamon dolce latte are  good hot drinks if your looking for a cold drink try the caramel frappuccino double blended or vanilla bean frappuccino theyre so good!!!!!

Answer 23

I would suggest that you try a plain cappuccino. Their coffee is so over roasted that it needs to be covered with milk to be pleasant. Then you can try adding some flavorings. My favorite is vanilla, when they don't have egg nog.
