Start Me Up!
White Chocolate Mocha, one pump vanilla, one pump hazelnut, whole milk with luscious whip cream swirled on top. Make it a quad please! Venti of course. In the famous words of Mick Jagger, Start Me Up! Some may call it flavored coffee, some may call it dessert, I call it heaven and am glad I chose to Starbuck it today. For me, coffee is a treat. It's definitely not something I drink everyday. But today I'm rewarding myself for getting up at 5 a.m. after being off and sleeping in for the last five days. An early reward for putting up with the BS that comes with work, the BS I know I will face today and tomorrow. It's cruel returning to work on Thursday but today and tomorrow were unavailable for me to take as vacation. One way it's fine. I'll work two days and have two days off before tackling a full week. The other way it stinks! I could have slept in for another two days. (waahhh). :) Are there any barista's out there? I've thought about ordering a small octo one day just to see my barista's face. What's the most you are allowed to add to a cup? What's the most someone has ordered? Curiosity killed the kitty-cat!^..^ Felicia |

You're lookin at a former barista right here! I don't recall anyone ordering anything above a quad, although we definitely had people that would drink mass amounts throughout the day. Their daily totals? I don't even want to know! I once had a lady order 4 double espressos, she then went on to tell me I could just put them all in 1 cup, she would be drinking them before the start of her shift - as a nurse! I'm not sure I want someone nursing on me that's just downed 8 shots of espresso. lol
So you take your white mochas with hazelnut huh? You wouldn't believe some of the flavor combos people order.

I love the hazelnut addition. It really just makes it like a French Vanilla, which some coffee stands have but Starbucks does the split of hazelnut and vanilla.
But just think what the nurse might be like without the kick of espresso. Scary either way!
The kicker is I carry around the completed sleeve with me and just hand that over to the barista. I always get a laugh out of that.
