I really enjoy drinking the Chai Tea Latte from Starbucks, and noticed that they have other flavors of Latte for Christmas such as Eggnog and Pumkin pie (or something pumpkin), but I don't like coffee at all, and I was wondering if these had any flavors of coffee in them, or if they didn't? Also, which one is your favorite Christmas one? Thanks!

Most latte's contain esspresso and cream. Espresso is basically concentrated coffee so yes, these drinks will contain coffee in some form. The only one that you have listed and that I can think of that wouldn't have coffee and would simply work with the milk is the Chai Tea Latte. My favorite Christmas flavor is actually the Gingerbread Latte. To me, their pretty good and they only come around once a year. :(

I dunno, The Pumpkin one doesn't taste that bad especially if you top it with whipped cream, but I can't get used to the idea of a Pumpkin Pie drink.. know what I mean? I'm no fan of egg nog either... their Lattes taste ridiculously watered down to me.
Chai Lattes from TIMOTHY'S is 500 times better than Starbucks. Really, you must try one. An acquaintance introduced me to them a while ago. Chai Latte w/Soy Milk and a shot of Greens+ with nutmeg and cinnamon. Yummmmmm. It's perfect for Thanksgiving and Christmas Time!
*Cafe Lattes have coffee/espresso in them. Chai lattes should not.

Anything pumpkin pie flavoured, stay away from it...I do dearly love real Pumpkin Pie but I have been disappointed with any Pumpkin Pie flavoured seasonal treats out there...If you like egg nog, try the Starbuck's one, get it with plenty of nutmeg and you will not be disappointed! Do not let it get cold though, it needs to be warm or else....ich! Yes, the other Lattes do have coffee in them...still super good though!

yes the lattes contain coffee. but it does not taste like as if you were drinking regular coffee. since they hav ethe syrups in it they are sweeter. maybe you can try one sometimes. but since you dont liek coffee you can always ask for a hot syrup creme which is stemed milk and just the syrup. no caffine in it what so ever.
we have :
-gingerbread lattes(syrup espresso, whipped cream)
-CHAI EGGNOG LATTES which i thik you would like. instead of regular whole milk we use eggnog its delicious! i hate chai and love this drink =D(chai, half water, half steamed eggnog, foam and nutmeg)
- eggnog lattes made with whole or nonfat milk (we mix eggnog and whole milk, or nonfat togehter so the eggnog can actually get steamed. if we steamed the eggnog stright it would basically become scrambled eggs. lol yummy???? )(espresoo, eggnog, foam, nutmeg)
-peppermint mocha (chocolate and peppermint syrup with espresso and whipped cream)
-pumkin spice latte (syrup, espresso, whipped cream)
-maple macchiato (i dont know if this one is seasonal or not) (maple syrup, steamed milk, foam, espresso, and maple drizzle)
-maple latte (syrup espresso and foam)
a drink coming back in january is called cinnamon dolce it was a very poplur drink taste liek a cinnamon bun, very good! my bf who also works at starbucks also loved it he made up a recipe that tates just liek it if you want to order it say you want a grande just say a grande latte with 4 pumps carmel and 4 pumps cinnamon) but the drik is very good =)
well for my favorite holiday drink. i liek pumpkin spice latte, peppermint mochas and chai eggnog lattes =D i dont liek eggnog lattes or gingerbread though lol =)
but all of the lattes and the mochas have espresso in the. the chai of course has chai.
-we can also do peppermint hot chocolates or peppermint white hot chocolates, which are both caffine free.
-we can also do peppermint white mochas which have espresso in them.
**but i suggest you try the chai eggnog latte trust me you'll love it!**

I haven't tried the pumpkin one. The Eggnog one I tried last year and it's gross. I tried a sample of the Gingerbread one yesterday and it's pretty good. I couldn't drink it on a regular basis though. I think they all have coffee in them, but you can't taste it.

These drinks are too sweet and flavored to taste much like coffee, but they are oh so very good anyway! At Christmas time, however, I like to go for the Peppermint Hot Chocolate, it is awesome!
