Starbucks has Happy Hour - Half Price Frappuccino Promo Again!

Chaos is brewing as Starbucks has officially started their "Half Price Frappuccino" promo once again.




The new promo is available every Monday from April 30 all the way to May 15, 2012...


The promo runs from 2pm to 6pm and I tell you guys, its absolutely elating. I already got a treat from a departing officemate so yeah, I'm digging this. Now you're officemates will no longer have that same old excuse that the fraps in Starbucks are expensive. 

While were on the subject of Frap might as well read the Starbucks Mocha Cookie Crumble Review I posted.

REVIEW: Starbucks Mocha Cookie Crumble Frappucino

My initial reaction for Starbucks' new "Mocha Cookie Crumble Frappucino". 


If you're interested in tasting new flavors from Starbucks, I suggest you try out the new mocha cookie crumble frap. Why should you? Here's a list:

  • It's got a sweet twist of caffeine. If you're one of those peeps that do not want to skip a beat in terms of getting their caffeine fix.
  • I'm still in transition to becoming an all-around food blogger but this drink had a nice dark chocolate taste which in my opinion was a good mix into the drink. 
  • The cookies were a nice element. It made this concoction a sure winner. Plus in fairness to this coffee shop, the cream that went on top of the actual drink complements to the overall texture. 
I don't have any qualms per se with regards to the taste. But I do have a slight problem with the price.... Unlike the other coffee based drinks Starbucks offers the Mocha Cookie Crumble Frappuccino was a bit pricey for my taste. 

Here's the price:

Tall: 165
Grande: 175
Venti: 185. 

And the regular drink I get which is the Caramel Frap only costs Php 135 for the tall. Soooo, I guess you know where I'm coming from on this one. 

Regardless, it's still highly recommended. I love the mixture and even the conio girls near me who also had their first sip of this was saying that this was good. Thanks conio girls. :)
