Java chips are not vegan for sure.

Big disappointment. I thought I read in this thread that Java Chips are vegan. I guess I'll stick to the Mocha fraps.

They WERE vegan. Or the ingredients were wrong.
Buttheads just changed it last week.

the website AC linked to originally said that they were (they got the info on ingredients from starbucks), but it was later updated that they contained milk.

and hey: they didn't have dark cherry when I worked there, AC. I only keep up with them so much after I quit! Also, sb is right... it probably sucks, as seasonal flavors usually do. I remember when they had orange mocha... after the promotion was over, we sold one once a week to the same guy. he said he liked it because it tasted like froot loops. every one else said they hated it because it tasted like froot loops. Yeah.
Raspberry's ok though. It definitely goes better in mocha things than in the iced black tea (i tried it once).

I got one last weekend, and was trying to remember this thread. All I could come up with was java chip = vegan, so I got one. I didn't even see where the ingredients would be, but I guess I should have asked. Boo.

my favorite was the special dark chocolate cherry flavor - awesome.

You are wrong.  I tried that flavor and it was distgusting!  It tasted like nasty cough syrup.

I've only gotten the coffee frappuccino since the introduction of the however-you-want-it frapp. I have to say, I was disappointed. I mean, my favourite used to be the espresso frappuccino, and then this flavour...but I thought it was way too sweet and left a strange after taste. I may try cinnamon dolce or mocha next time. If I don't end up liking them my frappuccino days are officially over :(

I don't like sweet coffee drinks. Are all of these sweetened?

yeah, they're all sweetened. i guess you could get an unflavored iced latte blended, but it wouldn't be the same texture (too melty), though i did that for customers sometimes.

They are, but you can request less sweetener. I did that a couple times because the drinks are sometimes too sweet for me.

Add in espresso shots if you want it less sweet (and extra caffiney.) mm.

The Soy lattes at starbucks are borderline too sweet because they use Silk, which is WAY too sweet as is.

they switched from silk to something else. i'm not sure how sweet it is compared to silk though.

Oh yeah? Well that's good to know! I typically don't go to starbucks because i'm not a huge coffee drinker, but sometimes it's inevitable. I'll look into it
