Calling out all Starbucks lovers stuck inside: You can still order the drinks you love from the comfort of your home. Here are some of Townsend students’ favorite drinks you can try.
Matcha Frappuccino
The Matcha Frappuccino is a blend of sweetened premium matcha green tea, milk, ice, and sweetened whipped cream on top. Senior Angie Chan finds that “The flavor of the Matcha Frappuccino [is longlasting]. It is not too sweet and has a slight undertone of bitterness that accentuates the creaminess.”
Strawberry Acai Refresher
The Strawberry Acai Refresher is made with blended ice, strawberry acai base, fruit juice, natural green coffee extract, and freeze-dried strawberries. Junior Fabiha Samiha likes this drink because “it’s not too sweet since you can ask for no additional sugar… Also, the strawberries are naturally sweet and it adds a subtle but nice flavor.”
Iced Vanilla Latte
The Iced Vanilla Latte is a mix of espresso, milk, ice and vanilla syrup. The vanilla syrup adds a delicious twist to the classic espresso flavor. Freshman Evelina Sargyan enjoys the “simplistic” elements of the drink and how each flavor stands out and works together to create a rich blend.
Mocha Frappuccino
The Mocha Frappuccino has mocha sauce, Frappuccino Roast coffee, milk, ice, and whipped cream. Senior Marion Yacoob likes that it “tastes sweet like chocolate but has the roasty undertones of coffee. The whipped cream on top adds an extra sweet, creamy taste.” This drink can also be drunk affogato style with a hot espresso shot poured on top of the Frappuccino creating a blend of hot and cold coffee.
