Non-Coffee drinks at Starbucks

Even if you don't like coffee, Starbucks still has some options for you. Personally, I can't stomach regular coffee, but I LOVE their mocha frappaccinos. It's basically mild iced coffee blended with finely crushed ice and chocolate - and it is topped with whipped cream. It tastes a lot like a chocolate milk shake and not very much like coffee.

Regardless, if you don't want coffee at Starbucks, here are some options:

Vivanno Nourishing Blends - they have two flavors: Orange Mango Banana and Banana Chocolate. What is a Vivanno Nourishing Blend? It's basically a whole banana blended with juice, protein and fiber powder, 2% milk, flavors, and ice.

Tazo Teas and Lemonades - Starbucks has a large lineup of Tazo teas and mixes. They range from hot teas like regular Tazo tea, green tea latte, chai tea latte - to chilled tea drinks like the new lemonade blended beverage with green tea, green shaken iced tea lemonade, and passion shaken iced tea lemonade.

Frappaccino Juice Blends - basically just regular lemonade. The official description is:

Fresh lemonade flavor with real lemon zest, blended with ice. Refreshing and delicious.

Classic Favorites - Classic favorites at Starbucks usually include hot chocolate, apple juice, caramel apple spice (heated apple juice topped with cinnamon syrup, whipped cream and caramel sauce), and vanilla creme (steamed milk and vanilla topped with whipped cream).

How to order regular coffee at Starbucks

Starbucks is known for their "fancy" drinks like frappachinos, cappuccinos, and espressos. There are lots of different ways to order a plain/normal coffee at Starbucks. Regular coffee is sometimes known as drip coffee. Here's some steps to get you started:

1. Decide on your size (small, medium, large - or in Starbucks language, short, tall, grande)

2. Decide what roast. Most Starbucks will usually have a dark roast and a mild roast. Dark roast generally tastes a little stronger, but mild roast has a bit more caffeine.

3. Decide if you want it black or with cream. If you want to add cream yourself, ask them to leave some room in your cup for that.

A standard cup of normal coffee is can generally be ordered by asking for any one of these:

Black coffee
Drip coffee
House coffee
Regular coffee
