I love egg nog lattes from Starbucks... I crave them when they're not making them. It's too bad they only make them a month out of the year!!
But, if I was going to choose out of all the drinks I have had. It would have to be the coffee shop in Sacred Heart Children's cafeteria, I don't remember what the drink is called but it has coffee, peanut butter and chocolate. I visited that stand a lot during that week Ethan was there in the hospital.
MMMMM I love their hot caramel macchiatto and hazelnut lattes. And yes, I do feel for those that don't have a Jolts nearby, although DUTCH BROS. is my personal favorite coffee stop!
SPUNKY MONKEY!! We don't even have to tell them what we need to order . . . they just know. Haha!! I love the way it smells in there too, yummy! Even though I don't drink coffee I still think it smells great.
i had a gingerbread milkshake at red robins that was soooo tasty. As far as a favorite smoothie place, i love to make my own, so it would have to be my house. :0)
Oh the memories of Jolts & juice...I still get the spunky monkey EVERY time I go...I just can't veer away, even when it's freezing! I do love the toasted marshmallow hot chocolate too though. Yum!
hmmmmm....when you asked it made me first think of how in High School I loved going to Arctic Circle and getting their lime rickey. But I love an Oreo shake from DQ
An Eggnog latte with a shot of butterrum from Moxie is probably my number one fave. (: Aannnnnddd the eleven other months of the year, something caramelly is delish!! Have you tried Brownstone coffehouse is Nampa? It's just awesome. (:
I love the spiced chai at Jolts!
There are so many possibilities. I love all sorts of drinks. The one that I always get from Starbucks is a non-fat/sugar free vanilla latte. I also have tried the Spunky Monkey and it super yummy.
My fave is the toasted marshmallow hot chocolate...yummy!
I just LOVE Jamba Juice Orange Dream Machine - I end up getting it every time!
I do like a Tall, Skinny, Vanilla, latte every now and then....Just the name....it makes me feel...ummm like I could be tall..skinny..and vanilla! :) lol! Strange, I know! But if you know me, you know I'm not even close to tall & skinny!
I LOVELOVELOVE the peppermint Mocha from Dutch Brothers Coffee. They have to be THE BEST coffee place around - in my humble opinion. No offense to J&J! :)
Tucker Family: if you remember what that coffee-chocolatey-peanut-buttery drink is called, please share. sounds delish!
grace: sounds like you and tasha should go grab a coffee at dutch bros. together! (i've never tried dutch bros... the fact that it's a little drive-through stand has always turned me off. however, i'll give it a try next time i see one!)
JODY LEAVITT: don't you just <3 those jolts girls (and occasional guy)? how they remember all these customers and orders, i'll never know. my theory is that they are programmed robots. super nice programmed robots.
Elizabeth Peterson: come over and make me a homemade smoothie. no really, right now would be great. if you won't do that, at least share how you make it!
Karli: ahhh, my earliest memories of jolts are with you, my friend! i think that was right around when we were able to drive, and i just felt so... POSH cruising to jolts and getting a spunky monkey. we were posh, weren't we?
Kelsey Peterson: lime rickey doesn't sound very appetizing... i think it's because rickey rhymes with hickey. plus, in my mind i'm thinking "what IS a rickey???" but you know what? now i'm curious. i'll try one.
Mommy: no, i haven't tried brownstone coffeehouse in nampa... definitely going to now!
Maggie: that reminds me, where/when should we get coffee??? ( :
Kylee: oh, kylee, kylee... no wonder you're such a hot tamale mama! non-fat, sugar-free??? don't they call that a "why bother?" well, i think you have the answer for 'em!
tamijane: you know what goes well with toasted marshmallow hot chocolate??? delicious chocolate birthday cupcakes with homemade frosting! mmmmm... (well, not really "goes well" but i can't stop thinking about those cupcakes.)
Jenny Bay: is the Orange Dream Machine supposed to resemble an Orange Dreamsicle?? because i'm pretty sure my mom would drive to jamba juice RIGHT NOW if that's the case.
Elizabeth McKinney: wow, that's a great concept - order what you want to be. wait a second, i think that's the method behind kylee's madness....! i'm learning, i'm learning...
Tasha: jolts called me and they are HIGHLY offended and have posted your picture up in the shop with a sign that says "HAVE YOU SEEN THIS LADY?" i would steer clear of that place for awhile until the dust settles. meanwhile, give grace a call. ( :
PHEW!
Your mom would LOVE the orange dream machine then :) Yes, it's like an orange creamsicle and it is AMAZING. I try to branch out, but I just can't make myself....I ALWAYS have to get the orange dream machine! hehe
I know it is not wednesday, but I had to add Rembrants in Eagle. It is this supper cute coffee house built out of a church. They have awesome furniture, that is "divaesk" if that a word. I get an Americano with cream, and sometimes I put Honey in it for a little sweet. It is a smooth cup of coffee, absolutely wonderful.
