If you're anything like me, you're the typical college student on summer vacay that can usually be found at some sort of coffee shop, more often than not, Starbucks. That's where I find most of my inspiration as well, as I sip on a refreshing cool drink in my hand. However, now that summer is almost over, there's a few drinks I need to recommend you try before school starts.
1. Double Chocolate Chip Frappuccino
This honestly comes in at the top of my list because hey, who doesn't love chocolate? Between the mocha syrup and yummy chocolate chips blended in, this is made for the chocolate lover. And if you're like me and watch the calories (sometimes), you can opt out of the mocha drizzle that comes on top and cut a few of those bad boys out without sacrificing the flavor.
2. Strawberry Acai Refresher
This one is great for anyone on the go, since it's not frozen and won't melt in five minutes in the summer heat. Its a sweet strawberry drink over ice with just a hint of tartness that mellows it out, and the real strawberries give it a fresh refreshing taste.
3. Iced Caramel Macchiato
Caramel, milk, and espresso? Who could say no to this sweet treat. Ask for one with coconut milk for a tropical zest, or extra caramel if you're like me and can't get enough of it. This one is always my top photographed drink (basic, I know) because it layers perfectly in the cup and looks super pretty, but not too pretty to drink!
4. Vanilla Bean Frappuccino
With this drink, the possibilities are endless. Since its a plain vanilla drink (it tastes like a milkshake!), you can customize it to your heart's desire. Ask for one with a pump or two of raspberry syrup for a yummy drink, or ask for a pump of white mocha syrup and blackberries blended in (seasonal).
5. Mocha Frappuccino
Yeah yeah, another frappuccino, but trust me, these frozen drinks are truly worth it. Chocolate on chocolate makes this one amazing. This is a great customizing one as well; ask to have a banana blended in for a chocolate covered banana taste, caramel for a sweet swirl, or raspberry syrup for another chocolate covered fruit taste, you literally can't go wrong.
6. S'mores Frappuccino
To save the best for last, one of the best summer drinks has to be listed, because what's summer without a s'more? Marshmallow whipped cream both in the cup and on top, graham cracker crumbles on top, and Chocolate swirls make this one a reminiscent of a warm summer night around the campfire. Get it quick though, it's only available until the end of August!
