Anyone tried this from Starbucks? I love the Gingerbread one but can't decide whether or not I'd like this one! Ah, decisions, decisions  |

Nope....I am waiting for their egg-nog latte  I wait all year for them to have it for about 3 months  But it is a good thing it is not year round as I would get super round!
because to truly enjoy it you have to have FULL fat, none of this skim milk stuff |

| OMG! It is soooooo good! I have been downing those like there's no tomorrow! Their spiced pumpkin cap is good too! I get mine with caramel suace on the whipped cream (as if whipped cream isn't fattening enough!) LOL! |

I got one last year and thought it was good.
I'm trying to avoid starbucks now to eat healthier. |

Now this is when it is no good having a lactose intollerence, I have to stick to the fruit teas and fruit smoothies.
I remember once I thought oh I'll be OK with a latte and spent the next 2 hours in the public toilets, it taught me and I have never ever again been bad |

same with me! i can't bear it sometimes. i thought it was only me until i realised it was lactose intolerance - i feel soooo terrible after i have anything like a latte. i still do now and again, and suffer the consequences! |

Hi! I just tried the gingerbread latte and it is fabulous!
yusufosman and rosebud: Can you have soy? My Starbucks (or the one I frequent, rather ) substitutes soymilk for cowmilk. With all the spices, I'm sure the taste is similar, although I've never tried it.
Happy Lattes, ladies! |

| I don't go to Starbucks often in Australia but I think I'll go next week to actually see if we have this available at all and also the gingerbread one. My impression when I was in the states was that there were way more different types of coffees available at Starbucks than here. On another note though, the Aussie starbucks has "Caramel Apple Cider" - has anyone tried that? |

i begrduge paying the 35p extra for soya milk when the price of their coffee is so high already!
i've never tried their drinks with soya though, so i have no idea what they would taste like. i'll stick to making my own (cheaper) drinks |

...we don't get starbucks in Scandinavia... But when I was in New York in the spring it bugged me they were EVERYWHERE...and they are a bit pricy..we get Wayne's coffee and Robert's coffee though - maybe spinoffs? I hope Starbucks won't come and invade us the way 7-11 has  |

| Hi, I tried it and I would say it is ok. I thought it was a bit too spicy but I really like the Maple hot drink. |

| I ended up missing the Pumpkin Spice latte...I guess that's the price of indecision! I did stop in today and get a gingerbread latte....yum. I don't fully believe that winter is almost here until I have one of those! |

I have not even looked at milk for years now and unfortunatley am also intolerant to soya.
I've just got used to it though, I'm very much into fruit teas now and don't even mind drinking black tea, I love earl grey.
I do think it's a bit of a rip off paying over £1 for some hot water and a tea bag though but I supose your paying for the surroundings.
Yes I have even stopped being naughty and sneaking chocolate now because it really does make you feel bad afterwards.
I once had a fruit smoothie when out shopping and didn't realise it had yoghurt in until it hit me on the bus on the way home, oh god it was awful, we got stuck in a traffic jam and my stomach was doing sumersaults, it was an hour until I could get to the toilet.
Anyway I have just discovered a chocolate substitute......popcorn I just love the stuff, who needs chocolate when you can have hot freshly made popcorn And it's good for you |
