Wow, I wonder if SF caramel has made it to Pittsburgh yet? (we're usually behind the times ) Cinnamon dolce is my current addiction too, but will try SF gingerbread in the next few days.

I haven't checked the website, but last year they had an eggnog latte that was addictive. I think the flavoring was a syrup, not actual eggnog.

When I was talking with my Starbucks folks about the new SF gingerbread latters, I happened to ask about the eggnog ones. They said that they used real eggnog in the carton for those and pulled out the carton of eggnog to show me. We all read the nutrition label and it was the real, full sugar, full fat stuff that is a black hole of calories -- something like 340 calories in a cup. Eggnog lattes aren't listed on the Starbucks website yet, but the calories would have to be through the roof! Guess I'll be skipping those this year.

I spent one summer working at a coffee place on the upper east side. There was a woman who came in every day for a cappuccino breve. Those things are divine! She wasn't the slightest bit overweight, despite the breve habit. I doubt I'd be so lucky.
