I was also a bit thrown off by the sprinkles on top of my drink, but I was wrong! The Sugar Cookie Latte was my personal favorite. The latte was a well-made drink, but it wouldn’t be my first choice to drink if I wanted something with caffeine.Įmily: After trying the Caramel Brulee Latte, I was expecting the sugar cookie latte to be plain sugar and milk with a touch of coffee. Nothing was too overpowering, but I would still rate this drink an 8/10. You would think that the combination of cookies and coffee would be a little much, but the flavors were surprisingly very balanced. Starbucks was spot on with this drink because it had the exact flavor of a sugar cookie. Molly: Over the past month, I’ve heard mixed reviews about this drink, so we had to give it a try. The flavor was there, but I would advise you to ask for a few less pumps of the caramel brulee syrup unless you’re a caramel fanatic. The more I had, however, the better it tasted.

As soon as I tried it, I was overwhelmed by the sweetness. Although the Caramel Brulee Latte is preferred hot by most, we decided to get it iced to change it up a bit. This was definitely a fun holiday drink that I recommend trying.Įmily: In my freshman year, my diet consisted primarily of iced caramel lattes, so when I laid my eyes on this drink, I couldn’t resist. This drink included the taste of espresso mixed with creamy brulee flavoring and a hint of sweet caramel. Despite the slightly strong sweetness, I would rate this drink an 8/10.

It didn’t have the most appealing look to it, but it ended up tasting much better than I anticipated. When I first saw this drink, I was kind of hesitant to try it. Molly: For our third drink, we got an Iced Caramel Brulee Latte topped with whipped cream and chocolate shavings. To me, it tasted like vanilla ,which pretty much defeats the purpose of mocha. You couldn’t taste any coffee whatsoever, only this strange sweet taste that didn’t really resemble white chocolate. My final rating would be a 9/10.Įmily: I don’t like white chocolate at all, so when we got this drink, I was a bit skeptical. My only critique would be that it was very sweet, so I wouldn’t buy it as my everyday drink, but I would definitely consider getting it again this season. For someone who doesn’t like white chocolate that much, this drink was surprisingly one of my favorites that I tried today. The White Chocolate Peppermint Mocha tasted very milky and included a hint of white chocolate that wasn’t too overpowering.

Molly: As someone who wouldn’t normally pick white chocolate as a first choice, I was pleasantly surprised by how much I liked this drink. My one critique is that there really wasn’t anything different about this drink than the peppermint hot chocolate. It wasn’t too sweet and the peppermint wasn’t overwhelming to the extent that it tasted like toothpaste. It basically tasted like hot chocolate with a hint of peppermint. I could give this drink a 10/10.Įmily: I LOVED this drink. I would 100% recommend buying this drink if you’re in the mood for hot chocolate, but want a little bit of caffeine. The peppermint mocha tasted almost exactly like their hot chocolate with a hint of mocha flavoring. Molly: Personally, I’m a big fan of Starbucks’ Peppermint Hot Chocolate, so I was initially really excited and curious to try this drink. In this review, we’ll be rating four of Starbucks’ annual drinks that are only made around this time of year. With the holiday season approaching, Starbucks finally brought back their classic holiday drinks that we couldn’t resist trying.
