10 Unique Starbucks Orders You Should Try
Starbucks has tons of drink options to choose from. Why not have fun and mix it up? Try out a unique Starbucks order next time you go rather than getting your usual! You’re bound to find something you’ll fall in love with among this list of 10 unique Starbucks orders to choose from. Remember – Starbucks baristas won’t know what you’re talking about if you ask for these drinks by their nicknames, so be sure to order them the way they’re typed out in each description!
1. Cinnamon Toast Crunch Drink
Cinnamon is one of my favorite flavorsĀ ever, and growing up, I couldn’t get enough of Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal. Now, you can have the cereal in coffee form! This delicious drink will definitely leave you wanting more. To order this, ask your barista for a Venti Iced White Chocolate Mocha with 2 pumps of White Chocolate Mocha, 3 pumps of Cinnamon Dolce, whipped cream, cinnamon, and sugar. It’s as easy as that! This drink is super sweet, meaning it won’t leave that bitter coffee taste in your mouth.
2. Nutella Frappuccino
Nutella is all the rage, and you can get it in Frappuccino form! This chocolatey drink would definitely be preferable for someone with a sweet tooth, so if you can relate, keep reading and give it a try. If you want to order this drink, ask for a Grande Mocha Frappuccino with heavy cream. Ask for 2 pumps of hazelnut syrup and 1 pump of toffee nut syrup, then top it off with mocha drizzle! This drink is to dieĀ for and I’d highly recommend it.
3. Iced Vanilla Chai Latte With Matcha
Okay, so you like vanilla chai, and you also like matcha. Have you considered combining them? It may sound crazy, but the two flavors pair together excellently, creating a sweet taste you’ll be coming back for. To order this, simply ask for an Iced Vanilla Chai Tea Latte with Matcha Sweet Cream Foam in whatever size you prefer. However, this drink takes sweetness to the next level, so I wouldn’t recommend this to someone who isn’t a fan of sweet drinks.
4. Iced White Chocolate Strawberry Mocha
If you’ve ever dipped your strawberries in chocolate, this is the drink for you. The Iced White Chocolate Strawberry Mocha is bursting with flavor. First, you’re gonna want to ask for an Iced White Chocolate Mocha. If you’re not a fan of white chocolate, you can simply ask for an Iced Mocha. Then, ask for vanilla sweet cream cold foam blended with strawberry puree. It’s that simple! This drink isn’t too complicated of an order, and it’s also delicious.
5. The Slutty Pumpkin
As amazing as The Slutty Pumpkin is,Ā pleaseĀ do not go up to the drive-thru window and ask for this by name (lol). The name of this drink was coined by a Starbucks employee who enjoys the ingredients that go into it. To get this drink, simply order a Grande Chai Latte with 2 shots of espresso and 3 pumps of pumpkin sauce. If you’re a fan of Pumpkin Spice Lattes, consider mixing it up by grabbing one of these instead!
6. Bourbon Apple Cider
Don’t like coffee? With winter in full-swing, maybe you just want something warm to drink. Try the Bourbon Apple Cider! This drink consists of apple juice and it’ll keep you cozy during the cold months ahead. Order a Steamed Apple Juice, then ask for 2 pumps of apple brown sugar syrup and 2 pumps of the regular brown sugar syrup. Top the drink off with cinnamon powder, and enjoy this delicious drink!
7. Sunset Drink
Just as the name implies, the Sunset Drink quite literally makes your drink set like the sun! It starts off as a light color, then the drink gradually turns into a deeper orange color, mimicking the sunset. This drink is as aesthetically pleasing as it is delicious, and it’ll be fun to watch the colors shift. To start off, order a Venti Lemonade, then ask for extra peach juice and 1 pump of pineapple syrup. To finish off, ask for light Passion Tea on top of the ice, and you’re all set!
8. Blackberry Caramel Macchiato
This drink is no stranger to the gorgeous blend of colors you’ve seen from the previous drinks on this list. This drink combines blackberry and caramel, giving it both a sharp yet sweet taste! The brown and purple colors combined give this drink a unique look as well. To get this drink, ask for a Venti Iced Macchiato, a scoop of blackberries blended into the milk, and vanilla sweet cream foam blended with blackberries. Finally, ask for blackberry inclusions and caramel drizzle for the full experience.
9. Red Drink
Despite the boring and simple name, this drink is anything but boring and simple! This drink is great for those days when you’re craving a smoothie-like consistency with a twist. To order the Red Drink, ask for a Grande (or Venti!) Blended Strawberry Lemonade. Next, ask for extra strawberry puree, 4 scoops of strawberries, and to finish it off, ask to have the drink double blended. Add this drink to the back of your mind as winter turns to spring and the temperature gets warmer outside. This drink is unique, and it tastes amazing.
10. Burnt Marshmallow
Another sweet addition to our list of unique Starbucks orders, the Burnt Marshmallow still includes the espresso you need to get through the day. It just has the added bonus of being delicious rather than bitter! Get this drink by ordering a doppio or solo espresso macchiato, then add 2 pumps of white mocha sauce and caramel drizzle. Due to the espresso content, this drink only comes in a short cup, but don’t worry – it’ll give you the perfect kick-start to your day in a yummy way.
