    I only go to Starbucks when they have the pumpkin spice latte'!  mmm, it's so good, but it's only there for a couple of months each year.

    This is pretty boring but...

    grande black bold blend coffee. 

    If they only have Pike Place, I do a black or a red eye to cover up the awful Pike Place taste, haha.

    i always get a skinny vanilla latte. Ho hum I know.

    Once I got a raspberry vanilla latte (only half skinny) and it was REALLY good. And pink, which was weird.I was feeling adventurous and it just worked

    I have an espresso maker at home and just bought like, 6 syrups (DH hates flavored coffee, i love it, so i bought syrups instead) and my new favorite is cherry-mocha latte. It's like cherry garcia ice cream (which is one of my faves ever)

    I'm also partial to mint-chocolate flavors and in the UK, they advertised an Orange Belgium Hot Chocolate flavor. I didn't try it, but orange mocha might be nice? I dunno!

    I don't get anything fun...but it does the trick!

    I either get a Grande Coffee or Grande Americano!

    I go there strictly for the caffeine!!

    I love the Peppermint Mocha - I used to get the Peppermint mocha twist - but it has even more cals and also my Starbucks stopped making it I'm pretty sure. 

    For a cold drink I love the Mocha Frappuccino® Light Blended Coffee - the small is only like 100ish calories and sooo delicious!

    I don't go to starbucks much anymore since it can get really expensive if you often, but if I go I get a grande soy chai.

    Sometimes I will get coffee, but it has to be half caf because starbucks has made me jittery in the past.

    @Jaylii and Alisha - and that is why I'm so addicted to coffee! They have way more caffeine than other places. People think I'm crazy. If I'm drinking normal coffee, I have to have 6 or 7 cups.

    Either a half-caff black and white mocha (chocolate syrup and white chocolate syrup) with soy, no whip, or a half-caff sugar-free hazelnut latte with soy. I can't handle starbucks full caffeine drinks. Make me crazy!! And I ALWAYS get the vanilla bean scones. Mmmmmmmmm-my favorite!

    @Ejs-Starbucks doesn't have orange any more. lol. That and almond were discontinued before I started there in Sept. of 2008. = )

    Did you guys know there is more caffiene in our tall cup of coffee than a tall latte? Yep. It's true. lol.

    I like a double tall, 2 pump cinnamon dolce, light whip, with sprinkls, white mocha. Haha.

    We also have this drink (a special made by a partner at my store) called a lebowski. It's like a starbucks double, but in a venti there are 5 hots, a pump of mocha, classic syrup, 1 scoop vanilla bean, and some half and half. It's all shaken together and it is AMAZIN! I like to swap out the classic for raspberry sometimes. = )

    Vanilla latte but in around Christmas time over here they do the most amazing Gingerbread lattes! Yum! 

    I'm also a big fan of their seasonal berry frappés. I think last year's was dark cherry and it was gorgeous.

    I probably go to starbucks maybe.... four times a year? but that is because i don't drink coffee. I have a gift card in my wallet and saving it for the day I"m at an airport and need a hot cup of tea!

    sometimes i do get the white mocha... but that is very rare. I'm no help!

    @hisbarista, I'm not surprised orange wasn't that popular of a flavor for coffee in the US. =] In fact they had LOTS of different flavors over in europe that aren't even heard of here (lychee and elderflower for two) that i've been putting in my coffees at home regularly for a sort of savory flavored coffee.

    @ejs-yeah. It makes me sad. I wish we had orange all the time. They do make great mochas. However, we do have a guy that brings his own almond syrup in and has us put some in the cup before we make it. I bet other stores would do that, too if anyone wanted to do it. lol.

    After being extremely addicted to coffee (I was probably drinking 8 cups/day), I quit cold turkey with remarkably good results.  So now I order a venti chai hot tea (not the latte, they always get this confused and i find that to be disgustingly sweet :X) with soymilk and two packets of raw sugar.

    @danadelphia: I really don't like their coffee either! It's too strong/bitter for me. I usually get a Tazo tea, or if I need a jolt of energy, I'll do a tall coffee with soy milk (boring, I know).

    @hisbarista, wow his own syrup?! He must really like it. To be fair, I have almond syrup at home, too. It's very amaretto-ey and I really do like it. Almond's a really nice flavor in coffee. I'm kinda disapoinmted in how FEW syrups starbucks has.

    The coffee shop down the street from me--er, Cup of Joe? Something like that...has DaVinci coffee syrups (better than Torani which is I think the Starbucks kind? It just tastes smoother and more intense) has like, 30 flavors or something. It's really fun to try something new every single time!

    I love the pumpkin spice and gingerbread lattes, but they're only available during Thanksgiving and Christmas. 

    I usually get a Java Chip Frappuccino or a Caramel Macchiato (sp?) any other time....I'm craving some now...lol

    @ejs-I guess. lol. It smells so good when he puts it in there. lol. I'm not sure what we use, because each bottle says "Starbucks" on it. So It's probably our own. I was surprised that we didn't have a lot when I started, too. Makes me more excited for the holidays since we get some new ones!

    grande one pump mocha - sometimes I'll get one pump mocha and one pump raspberry but only if I'm craving something really sweet. I can only afford Starbucks because its on campus and I can use my meal plan monies. Usually I make my own mochas at home with 2 scoops of Starbucks Mocha Powder (its just as good if not better than what i get in the store)
