Starting out a busy night of writing and housework with a chai latte.
I’ve never managed to get these as good as out in the shops, maybe because I don’t drink chai with sugar at home. I had my first, (delicious!) chai latte from a little van outside Haymarket Station in Edinburgh. I’ll need to try Starbucks’ version some time.
Anyone gots tips to share on awesome hot drinks? What’s your favourite beverage?

If you are ever in Edinburgh again you should try eteaket, It’s a lovely tea cafe with all sorts of different tea’s and CAKE! It had a great atmosphere and beats places like starbucks hands down. When I was there I had a white tea, I can’t recall the name but it had a taste of melons! I’m going to go back next time I’m in Edinburgh!
In terms of starbucks beverages my favourite was always the gingerbread latte with a skinny lemon poppy seed muffin- tastes like Christmas!
I hadn’t heard of Eteaket, I’ll definitely need to stop by there. Their website is great, it makes me want to buy a tea timer.
I meant to go to The Elephant House last time I was down in Edinburgh, but we never found the time.
The gingerbread latte, and every other Starbucks coffee (the strawberries and cream frozen thing!) all sounds delicious, but I still don’t like the taste of coffee. One day! I need to start liking it, then I can become a huge coffee snob and buy every coffee related gadget in the world.
Until then, maybe I’ll ask them to put the gingerbread syrup in their hot chocolate. :D
To be honest Starbucks coffee isn’t that great, I just love gingerbread xD.
I would buy nice coffee for the flat but due to wages I can’t afford to do so xD, For now TESCO… =[
I got some Monin syrup from the Costa in Inverness, it was a little pack with nutmeg, caramel, and gingerbread as well I think. I’m planning on using it for hot chocolate. :)
Yeah, coffee is so expensive. :( I can almost never afford to go out for it, so I stick with making fancy-ish drinks at home. Green & Blacks hot chocolate with frothed milk, a bit of caramel syrup, whipped cream and cinnamon = a great night in.
