Agreed!!

And I've not even had it with cream on yet!

WooWooOwl · 13/11/2014 15:42

The sticky toffee latte from Costa is even better.

Kab13 · 13/11/2014 15:50

Didn't knew this existed! Getting one tomorrow, sounds amazing

Celticlass2 · 13/11/2014 15:54

I've had both. They are indeed delishSmile
It's my mission to glug through all of the Costa special Christmas hot drinks between now and December.Wink Next on the list is the white Hot chocolate.
My local Coffee shop is doing an after eight hot Choc with cream. It's very good.

Lonecatwithkitten · 13/11/2014 15:55

No, no, no the gingerbread and cream latte is the best.

Tanaqui · 13/11/2014 15:56

Is it very sweet? The honey element put me off!

Tykeisagirl · 13/11/2014 15:59

Is it like drinking a Toblerone? Please tell me it is.

Eminybob · 13/11/2014 16:01

That sounds amazing! There isn't a Starbucks around here though. I had a sticky toffee latte from Costa the other day, it was nice but a bit too sweet. I'm going to try the gingerbread one next.

Winterbells · 13/11/2014 16:11

Oh, I can't wait to try that one.

I'm loving the black forest and chocolate brownie hot chocolates from costa at the minute. Yum!

DoctorTwo · 13/11/2014 16:20

If you fancy an alcoholic drink that's similar many supermarkets sell Batemans' Hazelnut Brownie. Chill it for a couple of hours et voila! An alcoholic brownie.

fairylightsintheloft · 13/11/2014 16:34

its quite almondy so if you don't like marzipan you may not be keen but otherwise yuuuummm Smile

Scholes34 · 13/11/2014 16:50

You obviously don't have good sex!

Smokedsalmonbagel · 13/11/2014 17:55

I'm more of a Costa girl but that sounds lovely!!!

HappyHippyChick · 13/11/2014 17:56

What scholes said! Are you sure you're doing the sex right?! Grin

Whyjustwhyagain · 13/11/2014 18:02

If you ask at Costa, they will make you a sticky toffee hot chocolate - great for me as I don't like coffee!

itsmeitscathy · 13/11/2014 18:07

It's beautiful but the calories made me cry

Alisvolatpropiis · 13/11/2014 18:11

There is nothing Starbucks do that is better than Costa never mind sex.

wonderingsoul · 13/11/2014 18:15

I think your doing it wrong!

mumofboyo · 13/11/2014 18:16

I have not been into a Starbucks for ages so can't say whether you're bu or not; but I bought some Oreo hot chocolate for the Tassimo machine from Asda last week and they're delicious - like drinking liquid biscuits! Only around 100 calories per cup too Smile v

mswibble · 13/11/2014 18:25

I was ridiculously excited when I heard about these and couldnt wait to taste one. Alas my first was also my last - I only had a small one yet still struggled to finish it as it was so sweet!

AttitcusFinchIsMyFather · 13/11/2014 18:26

YABU, it is disgusting.

RobinSparkles · 13/11/2014 18:29

I had one today but I was extremely disappointed that it wasn't chocolate whipped cream like it was in the picture Sad. Other than that it was nice.

AnyoneForTardis · 13/11/2014 19:15

the toffee nut latte at Sarbucks

and the crème brule latte at Costa.....

mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!

Andrewofgg · 13/11/2014 19:17
