Starbucks

Sonya Cornelia Wibowo

The tradition lives on! The red cups are out and we are all collecting stickers once more... The launch of Starbucks' holiday drinks heralds the start of the Christmas season for me. Nothing tastes more like Christmas than the Peppermint Mocha IMO-- so minty and rich and comforting. It is something to look forward to for sure! The toffee nut latte is a close second; a cup that's not as sweet as the former, with nutty undertones. I prefer this drink hot, which I find accentuates the subtle flavors. The drinks are not the only ones to look forward to. The chicken fajita roll makes a comeback and I just really enjoy this one. I also love the toffee nut loaf, which is perfect paired with the namesake drink. Though some may not enjoy the peppermint brownie, I love the screaming minty flavor of this treat! And for the nth year in a row, I still don't like the third Christmas drink. I have never enjoyed one and the streak continues. The Santa Hat frappe doesn't quite spell Christmas for me and I felt that it was a bit heavy handed on the darkchocolate. I'm sticking to the Iced Peppermint Mocha and the Hot Toffe Nut Latte. Happy holidays!🙃Addendum:I was also able to try the Single Origin cake and it was delicious. Huge and good for sharing.

I ordered Chocolate Java Chip if my memory serves me right and well, it's  good. The place isn't really cozy because it can get super hot outside so if you don't smoke, just stay inside and enjoy the smell of coffee.

For the love of collecting stamps for a planner. I got Toffee Nut frappe (170Php), sweet as always and I need to detox after this holiday. Placed was packed too.
