I do recommend the caramel apple cider. Very addicting and an excellent choice if you don't like coffee.

Great, now I want one.

And if you like your warm beverage with a little something extra, try hot chocolate with a little Butterscotch shot in it. MMmmmmmm.

:coffee: + :cheers: = :D

I enjoy a nice Soy Hot Chocolate. The butterscotch shot in the cocoa sounds yummy!!

Caramel in hot chocolate... two of my favorite flavors! :) Have to try that.

Hot beverages I enjoy: chai lattes from Coffee Bean. They also have this horribly addicting Pomegranate Blueberry Tea latte. Oh. My. Gods.

Hot chocolate, of course. I like a lot of tea varieties; my tea shelf at home shows this. Not so much varieties of black or green tea, though I do have some of those, but a zillion herb teas.

Starbucks caramel apple cider is fabulous but be warned- it is pretty sweet. Cavity in a cup, anyone? Now I want one. The other thing that's pretty good there is a steamer. Hot steamed milk with a shot of flavor syrup- you can get pumpkin. Avoids the whole bitter coffee dilemma. The other thing I like is having cafe au lait- regular coffee (not espresso) with steamed milk, about half and half. You can get flavor shots in those, too.

Ice water.

I'm not a fan of hot liquids (from soup to tea to coffee I don't like them), though every once in a while I will have a hot chocolate. But no matter how cold it is, I am still most content with just plain water as cold as liquidly possible. My theory is that the reason cold feels cold is because of the differential between outer and inner temperature. So bring them in balance.

I like hot green tea.

Or

Hot chocolate.

Depending on my mood.

I'm not a big fan of Starbucks, Tullys' or S.B.C. They don't so much roast their coffee as burn it. Ech. Yes, yes, I'm a coffee snob. But I will drink it to flood my system with the vital, nutrient-rich, life-giving caffeine, of which I'm a true and blue addict.
But I do like Teavana. The Thai Tea blend is quite yummy, and I really like their Irish Breakfast blend.
:cool:

The burntedness! That's exactly why I never liked Starbucks.

Then I stopped drinking coffee entirely. I think it's better this way.

Another vote for Chantico. You know, you can get it in a Venti. :evil:

I love tea. English Breakfast or Earl Gray. That and hot chocolate. I'll do coffee ocassionally, but it's not my favorite. It's gotta be goood coffee (i.e., NOT Starbucks).

After drinking that, the mind would be doin' a whole lot more than boggling!

We have a friend who's on a restricted diet (gluton free), so we asked for the ingredients of a chantico to see if she could have it. They are as follows: cocoa, sugar, cocoa butter. Then they steam it with whole milk. That's it. So freaking rich. But really, probably the most natrual thing they sell.
