Java Chip Frappuccino vs Starbucks Custom Frappuccino

So my cravings have taken a different turn. My favorite drink at Starbucks is still the Coffee Frappuccino but I have to try something different every once in a while right? Well, so I tried the Java Chip Frappuccino . It was awesome. Not the most awesomest but a great drink nevertheless. It still didn't knock the Coffee Frapp off its pedestal. The java chip added almost but not quite unlike the bubbles or pearl found in bubble tea. It gave just the right kick.

Curb Your Cravings

There are several alternatives to help curb your cravings out there. For example, QuikTrip (QT) gas station also have a Frozen Cappuccino machine.

It is blended to a very smooth consistency and goes down very well.

I view the Frozen Cappuccino from QT as a nicotine patch for cigarettes. It didn't work for me but it might for you. Good luck...
