What is this coffee drink called?

Question

I normally drink sugar-free vanilla nonfat lattes, however, since the weather is warming up I want a cold, blended vanilla coffee.

Oncer I was told, from a Starbuck's barista, that the drink I wanted was a vanill frappucino - he made it for me and it was EXACTLY what I wanted.

However, since that time, I've ordered a vanilla frappucino from Starbucks and it's not the same ... I've had vanilla bean and also vanilla creme - neither of these have coffee/espresso in them - they taste like a vanilla shake.

I just need to know what to ask for so that I can have my cold, blended vanilla 'latte'.

I FOUND OUT WHAT THE DRINK IS ... IT'S A CAFFE' VANILLA FRAPPUCINO. THANKS!

Answer 1

Vanilla Frappucino with a shot of espresso is what I think you want. If you get a venti, you might want two shots.

Answer 2

Starbucks sells "Vanilla Frapuccino" cold drinks in grocery stores. They usually come in a four pack of glass bottles, unless you get a good store that will also sell singles. Try that, and if it's what you're looking for you can pick up as many as you like and keep them in your fridge at home. If that's not what you want, then I would suggest simply telling the person who's making your drink exactly what you want and then if they get it right tip them well and and go back to that coffee bar/shop. You'll always get exactly what you want from then on out.

Answer 3

Go back to star bucks and explain exactly what you want in the drink. Explain that one time the clerk said it was a vanilla frappucino, which sounds correct to me, but you said the second time it tasted differently. Ask a clerk, give him what you want in it and then ask what it is called. If possible, go to the same clerk every-time.

Answer 4

dont ask for a frappuchino, ask for a vanilla latte cold.

Answer 5

if that's what you want, go to a non-starbucks and ask for a french vanilla granita. mmmmmmmmm.... granita.
