Winter Time Blues (or Green)
SNOW ALERT!
I've been working all day long (at Starbucks) and what never ceases to amaze me is the amount of cold drinks we sell on days like today. It's snowing out? Okay! It's below 20 degrees? Even better! Right now I would much rather be bundled up with a (very) large cup of coffee than frolicking in the frigid snowy weather pouring an ice cold beverage down my frost-biten esophagus. That being said, if I am all tucked away indoors and have my heat blasting at a perfect 70+ degrees, I would certainly enjoy the company of a delicious green tea frappuccino.
My weakness (The Green Monster) is made as follows:
1.5 pumps of hazelnut syrup- no classic syrup
1 scoop of vanilla bean powder
2 scoops of java chips
2 extra scoops of matcha powder
whipped cream blended inside
Oh how I yearn for the sunshine, warm weather and obnoxious tan lines. During the hot summer days you'll find me delighting in this monster, getting my fix of earthly matcha goodness and chocolate with a hint of sassy hazelnut. I'm always making weird drinks at work--like a fruity pebbles frappuccino--and can always use feedback! If you're adventurous enough, give it a go and tell me what you think!

The Green Monster sounds pretty spectacular. I will have to try that on my next visit to Starbucks.
