The Best Non-Coffee Drinks At Starbucks

Not being a coffee drinker should not keep you from going to Starbucks. As a non coffee drinker, I completely understand your pain and confusion of trying to decide what to get at Starbucks when you are out with your coffee-obsessed friends. If you’re struggling to find some good non-coffee drinks from Starbucks, here are a handful that you need to test out! Head to your local Starbucks and taste test away!

White Chocolate Creme Frappucino

Out of all the non-coffee drinks, this one tops the list! If you love hot chocolate, you definitely need to try this! It’s a delicious blend with white chocolate sauce, milk, and whipped cream.

Very Berry Hibiscus Refresher

Do you love blueberries? If so, this non-coffee drink might just be your new definition of perfection. It’s mixed with ice, fruit juice, and blueberries. You can also add lemonade if you’re feeling daring.

Strawberry Green Tea Infusion Lemonade

It may not sound like the best out of the non-coffee drinks on this list, but it is absolutely delicious, as proved by its raving reviews. This one is for the green tea and lemonade lovers out there.

Violet Drink

The Violet Drink is a mix of the Very Berry Hibiscus Refresher blend combined with coconut milk and ice. The violet hue will make this drink the perfect aesthetic booster for your Instagram, trust me.

Pink Drink

Another drink that every Starbucks lover seems to need to take a picture of is the infamous Pink Drink. It is a mix of the Strawberry Acaí Refresher blend with passion fruit and coconut milk. Mixed together, these ingredients create the perfect shade of pink.

Strawberry Acaí Refresher

This delicious drink is one of the most popular non-coffee drinks from Starbucks (well, besides the coffee ones)! It is a mix of strawberry, passion fruit, and acaí. You can also get it with lemonade as well to sweeten it up even more.

Blended Strawberry Lemonade

Awarded as one of the most refreshing summer drinks, this blended strawberry lemonade is one of the perfect non-coffee drinks to keep you cool during a day trip to the beach or on a hot summer day.

Comfort Brewed Wellness Tea

If you’re not a coffee person, maybe it’s time to test out tea. This tea is perfect if you are super stressed out and need something soothing. The Comfort Brewed Wellness Tea includes lemon, ginger, fennel, licorice root, and mint. All of the ingredients together will hopefully start to ease your nerves!

Iced Passion Tango Tea

Not a fan of iced coffee? Iced tea is the way to go! This Iced Passion Tango Tea is a blend of hibiscus, lemongrass, and apple. This flavorful drink is almost guaranteed to put you in a good mood.

Mint Majesty Tea

This tea, blended together with mint and just a little bit of lemon verbena, is the perfect drink if you’re in need of something refreshing. Plus, it’s good for you and caffeine-free! Side note: you can actually ask for any tea as a latte as well. Doing this is way healthier than ordering a normal latte, so you’ll feel better drinking it.

Caramel Brulée Frappuccino

This drink is perfect if you’re looking for something that will satisfy your sweet tooth. Frappuccinos may be high in calories, but they are definitely a delicious choice if you’re looking for a blast of sugar. If you are obsessed with caramel, this frappuccino will take care of your cravings.

Peach Tranquility

Have you ever been so overwhelmed and just needed a break? Well, take a seat with this tea in your hand and just relax. It is a mix of peach, candied pineapple, chamomile blossoms, lemon verbena, and rose hips. It also doesn’t have any caffeine in it, so you could even drink it before bed!

Chai Tea Latte

Made with black tea, cardamom, black pepper, ginger, cinnamon and cloves, this latte tastes like heaven. You can get it hot during to warm you up during the winter, or iced for a refreshing spring or summer cool-down drink.

Salted Caramel Hot Chocolate

This is another drink to get if you’re looking for something sweet. Tired of drinking just normal hot chocolate? The caramel in this hot chocolate will definitely sweeten it up. This drink will make you wonder why you never tried salted caramel and hot chocolate together in the first place.

Double Chocolate Chip Frappuccino

If you want a non-coffee drink that tastes like a milkshake, this is the one for you. This frappuccino is made of mocha and chocolate chips blended together for a ton of chocolatey goodness. Chocolate lovers everywhere need to try this drink ASAP.

Caramel Apple Spice

Imagine apple juice topped with cinnamon syrup and caramel sauce. That’s basically what this drink is. And, lucky for you, you don’t need to imagine it because this drink is just a Starbucks run away. This non-coffee drink is made for those cold winter nights when you just want to drink hot apple cider and sit by the fire.

Iced Peach Green Tea

As a non-coffee drinker, I know how hard it can be to get energy. Thankfully, iced tea exists, and this drink is perfect if you need some extra energy to get you through the day. It has just the right amount of sweetness, so you won’t feel like it’s too much or too little. Green tea doesn’t taste that great to me normally, but with the peach flavor you can barely taste the green tea.

Peppermint Hot Chocolate

This peppermint hot chocolate will warm you up on those cold December nights right before the holidays! Also, this hot chocolate isn’t seasonal, so you can get it any time of the year. If you’re feeling like Christmas in July, simply take a trip to Starbucks and order up! This non-coffee drink will give you that holiday feeling no matter what time of year it is.

Strawberry Banana Smoothie

Smoothies are my favorite drink year-round. I know the last drink people think of ordering when they go to Starbucks is a smoothie, but their smoothies are actually pretty good. I always get the strawberry and banana smoothie, so this is the only one I have tried, but I’m sure the other blends are just as good. You can also add protein powder to any smoothie. This drink is great if you are aiming for a healthy alternative!

Contrary to popular belief, Starbucks doesn’t just sell coffee. All of these drinks are all well-liked and guaranteed to make you want to keep spending all your extra money at Starbucks.
