    Salted caramel mocha is disgusting compared to the salted hot chocolate from last year.

    I was really disappointed.

    I can see how a hot chocolate would be good too, but I really like the caramel/mocha mix. When I worked at the SBC cafe I made up my own caramel/chocolate *** all the time.

  • And I will say that even my favorites disappoint me from time to time. It's all so varied based on who makes the drink. There is nothing worse than bitter espresso because the steamed milk wasn't added in time. Yuck.

    Yes, 45ish minutes away. We go every so often. I will have to order both a pumpkin and a salted carmel mocha now and drink them over three days. Last time we went, my husband bribed a barista to put pumpkin spice syrup in an extra cup for me to use. Embarrassed

    You can buy the syrup pump bottles. I think they are around $20.

    Ask for them to make the drink upside down and stirred well. That way shots are poured last. Burned shots get the drink sent back asap. I had to talk a person working at DD (ick never again) to remake a drink because she burnt the shots. Like she didn't believe me that could happen.

    Oh I definitely send back drinks for burned espresso. After I was a barista I became so anal about it because it's so easy to avoid.

    Syrup yes. Sauce no (mocha, white mocha, pumpkin, and chai). They are like closer to 15. I used to work there. I make my own simple syrup for like 7 bucks with vanilla bean. Although I have thought about getting some cinn dolce. Which is awesome when added to pumpkin spice.

    I'm still kicking myself for not loading up on syrups and sauces when our store closed. The close-out + the employee discount made them like $3.

  • I liked the SC mocha I've had two I think and they were both OK.

    I'm not a huge pumpkin spiced fan but I would really love it if it was cold enough for me to want to order a hot drink.

    I can't wait for my peppermint white mocha's to return.
