I drank SO MUCH coffee today, and its only the first day. I can still taste the coffee at the back of my tongue, lingering. It's amazing that I'm even yawning and sleepy-ish right now ( Read more... )

Not knowing that something's a secret? Eh? You know you have to tell us. There's something in the coffee, isn't there? ;)

Mmm...I'd probably know 'em when I see 'em. The clothes and shoes I mean.

Otherwise, could you keep a look out for the hazelnut iced mocha recipe? Ice cubes not the frappe. It's all I ever drink at Starbucks, I love it so much. :)

Oh well, you know, there could always be some compensation for your efforts. ;)

My housemate who works in Coffee Bean used to work as crew before he got himself promoted into IT officer at their HQ. The stories he told us...

But I've always preferred Starbucks anyway. Starbucks has loads more class than Coffee Bean will ever have. It's all about standards you know...

Is there a Taipan branch?

The pumps of hazelnut syrup are kind of giveaway. ;)

But how do you make the iced mocha and what are all the ratios like?

the secret is the bar mocha mix that sbux hq sends in... iced mocha... erm, pump in the required amount of mocha syrup, then the espresso shots, followed by milk and ice. lol.

actually there aren't many trade secrets to divulge as most of sbux's stuff comes in plain packaging , ready-mixed.
