Wow, just as I get introduced to the drink, I find out that they are discontinuing it.

I know someone who is a BIG fan of the drink and in fact he is the one who introduced me to it. I was never excited by the concept. I could not finish it when I tried it for the first time. It was too thick and rich for me. But after having it a few times, I was finally able to at least finish the damn drink.

It still did not do much for me, and Starbucks marketing department got it right apparently. And they had the guts to yank it out. Good. One less choice when I go to Starbucks :-)

Being in San Diego in 75+ degrees nowadays, the drink du jour is Iced Coffee, sweetened.
