Tips for Ordering Hot Drinks
- Save money: a Short is not on the menu board, but you can still order it for most hot drinks.
- Stronger flavor: add an extra shot, or switch to a Flat White.
- Fewer calories: ask for nonfat or almond milk and fewer syrup pumps.
- Not too hot: ask for “kids’ temperature” so you can drink it right away.
