One Sexy Frappuccino Print E-mail

thumb_coffee.jpgBelieve it or not Starbucks is more than a place to pick up chicks or bang out your latest manuscript on your Macbook Pro. Aside from their great hospitality you can actually get a great cup of coffee there too. If you didn’t already know, Starbucks has a rep for catering to the coffee fetishes of the most discerning coffee drinkers but now they’ve taken it to another level with their new However You Want it Frappuccino®.

Just in time for summer you can get the cool refreshment of your favorite caffeinated beverage with as many additional ingredients, toppings and calories as you want or if you’re trying to keep it sexy you can opt for a lighter beverage with soy or non fat milk. The light option will save you at least 33% fewer calories and for those of you doing the “3 Frapp. a-day routine” all those calories could add up.

For example, a Tall Mocha Light Frappuccino® Blended Beverage (no whip) is just 100 calories, compared to a Tall Mocha Frappuccino® (no whip) at 200 calories. You do the math, If you’re drinking drinking 3 a-day, going light could save you 300 calories! In general, killing the whipped cream saves a ton of calories but if you just have to have it, ask for half. For more flavor you can always increase your coffee intensity without increasing calories; just ask for a more coffee. With However You Want it you can really have that caramel soy double Frappuccino half whip® exactly the way you want. Now thats one sexy Frappuccino®.

nuts1.jpgNo, not those nuts! We're talking about the kind you eat. Believe it or not, some of the things in nuts are healthy – but you don’t always have to have nuts in your mouth to stay healthy. Thank God. So here’s the deal. Walnuts are high in antioxidants and ALA, a plant-based omega-3 fatty acid that can help counter the artery clogging cheeseburger you just ate.
