ICE CREAM that is. Being an ice cream junkie I have found heaven. Starbucks has the most incredible coffee ice cream you will ever taste.

A real coffee bud taste is present, along with a creamy rich mixture that is not overly sweet.

If you are an ice cream lover, try it. You will be pleasantly surprised.
 
I think I've heard that before. As someone who consumes as much as ten to twelve pints a week in the summer, I'm always open for suggestions. It's a lot less in the cold months, and as much as I hate to patronize Starbucks, I guess I'm going to have to break down and try their coffee ice cream.
 
The good thing is that you do not have to go to Starbucks to get their ice cream. I have only seen it in the supermarket as I do not think the average starbucks has a large enough freezer to store this product. I can concur that the ice cream is pretty good. It, (unlike their coffee), does not taste burnt or over roasted.
 
My disabled son loves Starbucks Frappacino. We go to the store in Canton, Ga. for a treat. EVERY time that I ask for a "cup of coffee" the employees act as though I wanted the Holy Grail. It must be in the posted language somewhere, but I've been unable to locate it, and some of the concotions strike me as sacriligeous!! I mean, if you need milk, cream, whipped cream, amd flavoring all in your coffee, why not just get a milk shake from McDonalds? It'll be a good bit cheaper, too. :?
 
I have never been to a Starbucks. I haven't had coffee since 1993 so all these new high tech flavors are foreign to my pallet. I am highly susceptible to caffeine due to my diet.

Starbucks ice cream is available in 1 Qt containers only. Most supermarkets have it. When I endulge I eat it so often my insides get sick. It also gets me running in high gear due to the heavy amount of caffeine.

It is worth the suffering to enjoy Starbucks coffee ice cream.

A friend of mine gets plain 'ol coffee anytime we happen to go to a starbucks. Somewhere on the menu is is listed... the plain coffee is called their 'house blend'. At home I use starbucks coffee, and I prefer the french roast. It is very dark roased and strong, and I like to drink it with cream and sugar. I usually buy it at Kroger, and once or twice at wall-mart (they usually only have ground, and I like to buy whole bean). When I actually make it to a starbucks (none in my nehghborhood), I always get a breve cappucino, and add a bit if light brown sugar to it.
