Save the Spoon: Dairy/Egg/Peanut/Wheat-Free Lifestyle Blog: March 2016

Throwback to the days of Frappaccinos and Madeleines, Starbucks is no longer just a place for the dairy loving, gluten-chomping crowd! Today, dairy, soy, and gluten are simply a choice at the world's largest coffee chain. After exhaustive research, taste-testing, and trial-and-error, I believe that I have found Starbucks beverages and snacks that can bring the excitement back to the Starbucks lover in you.

5. Peach Tranquility Herbal Tea

What: Yummy and completely gluten and dairy-free, this a great alternative to old-school coffee.
When: Personal favorite for evening study sessions. Tastes like a Nicholas Sparks Novel- you'll feel like you're strolling down the path of a peach orchard. No caffeine, no problem.

4. Classic Oatmeal
What: An old school favorite. Comes with brown sugar and nuts (in a separate bag, so you can omit if you desire.) Warm, delicious comfort food at it's most basic.

When: Perfect for breakfast. When your friends are craving a Spinach Feta Wrap or Turkey Bacon Sandwich, you can opt in for the oatmeal, or it's counterpart "Oatmeal with Blueberries."

3. Fruit Cup

What: Fruit. In a cup. Refreshing and clean and bright.
When: When you're craving fresh fruit there's nothing that could be better. Personal favorite in airports- the number one place on the planet that people crave fruit. Or at least, the place I can never leave without buying a gosh darn fruit cup for $8 at a kiosk.

2. Americano

What: Coffee but not. How the Europeans tried to explain our coffee because their espresso is far to fancy for us on this side of the pond. Tastes good with soy or coconut milk.
When: This drink makes me think of rain. So I'm going to say it's ideal for rainy days. Or when you want coffee but are looking for a bit more sophistication.

1. Tall Double Shot Coconut Milk Latte

What: Let me kick off by saying that I am not a coconut fan, but this is by far the winner of my Starbucks search. Creamy and smooth with just the right amount of caffeine, I am excited to replace my skinny vanilla latte with this bad boy. Gone are the days of feeling sick for hours after splurging on Starbs- this tropical and joyful drink comes with kick and great taste!

When: When you wake up. Before class. Before a final. After a final. Road trips. Plane Trips. Train Trips. Literally anytime you need a pick-me-up and will be awake for at least 12 more hours. Just do it.
