At first, it was difficult. No lattes, macchiatos, refreshers, cold brews, the list goes on and on AND ON! So I was forced to look into the menu and found drinks to order for every mood which contains ZERO caffeine! Here are three Starbucks drinks you NEED to order if you are looking for that caffeine-free option.

1. Iced Passion Teas

The Passion Tea and Passion Tea Lemonade are incredible caffeine-free options!

Pro Tip: Add in strawberry puree for an extra element of sweetness.

2. Creme Frappuccinos

Hello Magtazine

While Starbucks has Frappuccinos with coffee added, they have a few without. Check out the Pumpkin Spice, Chocolate Cookie Crumble, Caramel Ribbon Crunch, Strawberry, Double Chocolatey Chip, Vanilla Bean, AND White Chocolate flavors!

Pro Tip: Customize your flavor by changing the sauces, syrups, and types of milk in your Frappuccino.

You can also blend in banana if your heart desires.

3. Blended Strawberry Lemonade

This is the perfect mixture between a refresher and Frappuccino. PLUS, it doesn't have any caffeine!

Pro Tip: You can blend in dried fruit or a variety of juices (apple, guava blend, peach blend).

4. Steamed Milk aka "Steamers"

I'll be honest, my initial thought was ... EW. However, this is basically any latte, just without the espresso.

You can personalize this to your own taste, changing the milk, sauces/syrups, and toppings ... ultimately creating the perfect hot beverage!

Pro Tip: Get in the fall mood and add 1-3 pumps of Pumpkin Sauce, nutmeg, cinnamon, and 1-2 pumps of classic syrup for a caffeine-free PSL.

5. Steamed Apple Juice

Either try the basic steamed apple juice or caramel apple spice drinks for the PERFECT Fall drink!

Pro Tip: If you want a mock apple cider, add cinnamon and nutmeg to the basic steamed apple juice.

6. Hot Herbal Teas

Starbucks continues to change its menu when it comes to hot caffeine-free teas.

But the Mint Majesty and Peach Tranquility have been lasting favorites!

Pro Tip: The hot teas are ... HOT! Ask for your tea in a larger cup size with a tall cup of ice on the side. This will help you to make it room temperature while also enjoy the full cup of tea.

And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
