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.
