9 Nasty Truths About Your Favorite Foods

Starbucks is releasing their new Green Tea
Latte in the US today. The green tea lattes are already available at many other Starbucks locations throughout the
world. Unlike their Green Tea Frappuccino from last summer, which was made with a premixed base, the tea latte is built
just like a regular latte - with freshly steamed milk. They are flavored with matcha, which is powdered green tea, a a
splash of melon-flavored syrup. If you like the flavor of the green tea and don't want to cover it up with the melon
flavor, take Hungry Girl's advice and ask
for your latte to be made with half the amount of syrup. Alternatively, try vanilla syrup instead of the melon
altogether.
Just please don't ask the baristas to add a shot of espresso to your tea drink. I know that I have seen a lot of people do it, but it's just not right.

Something healthy, I thought, only to be VERY disappointed with the new green tea concoction which I threw away. Thank heavens it was a free promotional. Keep trying, Starbucks, for us green tea/health nuts.

Although it is cold, the Blackberry Green Tea Frappuchinno, is much unlike its hot cousin. It has a mild green tea taste, complimented by the sweet blackberry syrup, whipped cream and sauce on top. Don't be afraid to try a sample, you might be surprised at what you find. After all, a sample does not cost you anything, it is free.

I work at a Starbucks and the powdered green tea used to make the "new" green tea latte is exactly the same powdered green tea used to make last year's green tea frappuchinno. The "premixed base" is made in the Starbucks store, it is made with fresh non fat milk and a sweetener base. I think if you are going to educate the public you should get all of the facts, not just the ones that support your biased opinion. For our customers, try a sample, it is free and who knows, maybe you will like what you taste.
