Starting tomorrow, Saturday, August 28, 2010, you can secretly order a Starbucks favorite, the Pumpkin Spice Latte. This seasonal drink finds it way back to the baristas, but only if you ask for it since it won’t show up on the menu. The Pumpkin Spice is on Starbucks’ secret menu. Never mind that they blogged [...]

Bought some newly available Starbucks VIA Ready Brew Iced coffee yesterday and am ready to live taste this drink. Got my supplies sans the ice (I don’t really trust the ice here). 12:35 That packet is full! Stirring… Lots of coffee crystals to dissolve. After about a minute of pouring and stirring, I think all [...]

… the now-defunct line of Starbucks canned iced coffee. Available at your favorite Costco is illy issimo Cappuccino, but of course, being Costco, the canned coffee drink only comes in a 12-pack. The drink isn’t bad, but it’s not very distinguishable. A 8.45-oz can contains 100 calories and 64 mg of caffeine and a mean [...]

Does Starbucks have a new lid for its hot drinks? This one looks more plasticy. And still not recyclable in Hawaii (it’s a number 6).

Seattle’s Best Coffee is popping up all over the place, and it isn’t by accident. Sure, sure Starbucks owns the red-logoed coffee chain, and now SBUX capitalizing on the SBC brand. Heck, Seattle’s Best Coffee even has its own ninja force who ransacked Starbucks HQ.

Do you have your Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf shirt “Where you BEAN?” When you wear this $17 shirt into Coffee Bean locations on Wednesdays, you’ll receive special offers like free drinks, double stamps, and more. Interesting idea for a promotion, but I’m not sure I’d participate. Sorry, too lazy to change my clothes before/after [...]

Those clear insulated tumblers that Starbucks is selling are called “To-Go Cold Cup Tumblers.” These are now available online at the StarbucksStore at the same in-store price. But… these cups aren’t regionally personalized like the Aloha from Hawaii versions.

Whatever the reason Steve Consalvi had for running out on the field during a Phillies game and whether or not the use of a taser was excessive, I’m not judging. But to remember this event, I designed a Frappuccino that looks like this. I started with a Green Tea Frappuccino base to match the grassy [...]

So this clear insulated tumbler is quite popular on the mainland. Local Starbucks are stocked but not so on the mainland. On the backside of this cup, it says “Aloha from Hawaii.” And yes, these tumblers are showing up on eBay.

Wait, the Starbucks Frappuccino blended drink is 15 years old? Okay, now that I got that out of my system, this teenaged drink is going through puberty this summer, changing its look and composition. Starbucks is finally letting its customers customize their Frap drinks to help resuscitate this popular hot weather drink. With the However-you-want-it-Frappuccino, [...]

Is Starbucks coffee from Kapolei cheaper than other Hawaii locations? Maybe I just wasn’t paying attention, but I didn’t think a grande iced coffee was just over 2 bucks. I thought it was like around $2.40? This was from the oasis Starbucks in Target Kapolei so not sure if that matters. Sadly, this location doesn’t [...]
