The Drink: Starbucks Cappuccino Overall Rating: 3 out of 5 cups The first drink that I ever tried at Starbucks was their cappuccino, I must have liked it because over a decade later I still go back to Starbucks on a very frequent basis. The last cappuccino I had was from McDonald’s and it was [...]
What I’m Drinking – 7-Eleven Iced Coffee
The Drink: 7-Elven Iced Coffees Overall Rating: 2 out of 5 cups I’ve suffered so that you don’t have to. Last week, I tasted the new “coffee” drinks from 7-Eleven.
