It’s safe to say that I’m addicted to coffee. I order Starbucks an unhealthy amount, but I tend to fall into a pattern of buying a basic vanilla latte over and over again. In an effort to break out of my comfort zone, I vowed to taste-test celebrity Starbucks orders. Some of these drinks were amazing, and some of them were interesting, to say the least (looking at you Khloé Kardashian)
Below, I’ve ranked each order from the absolute worst to the best.
- Khloé Kardashian
-
Khloé orders a seven-pump, no water, chai latte. A standard chai latte comes with five pumps of chai, which is then diluted with water. Adding two more pumps and mixing the water makes this drink extremely strong. After trying it, I was left with a bad taste in my mouth and several questions. What milk does she get? Is it iced or hot? How did she arrive at such a specific order? I guess I’ll never know the answer to these questions, but what I do know is that I won’t be ordering this drink again.
- Justin Bieber
-
Inspired by Justin Bieber’s song “Peaches,” the Fuzzy Peach Refresher is a venti, dragon fruit refresher with peach juice, two pumps of vanilla syrup and light coconut milk.
No offense to Justin, but this drink is disgusting. The ingredients combine to create a sickeningly sweet concoction that literally made me gag. If you don’t want to experience a sugar high, proceed with caution.
- Kim Kardashian
-
Kim revealed her Starbucks order on the Ellen Show, explaining that she doesn’t drink coffee, “but if I have to have one just to wake up, I’ll have the smallest size, white chocolate mocha with whipped cream and take, like, three sips.”
As someone who craves that bitter taste of coffee to make it through the day, this mocha was a tad too sweet for me, but I didn’t absolutely hate it. I might consider re-ordering it in the future with a bit less syrup.
- Taylor Swift
-
Taylor usually orders a grande, caramel nonfat latte. Her drink is nothing new, but I still enjoyed it. It’s the perfect coffee for a chilly day, and sipping it while surrounded by fall foliage and listening to “Folklore” added to the autumn aesthetic.
- Zendaya
-
According to a questionably reliable tweet and a backstage photo from Euphoria, Zendaya orders a venti, matcha latte with coconut milk.
Zendaya never misses, and her Starbucks order is no exception. The matcha is refreshing and the coconut milk adds the perfect amount of sweetness. It’s a great drink to casually sip while studying or reading a book.
- Harry Styles
-
If you’ve ever wondered what Harry Styles orders from Starbucks, look no further. His drink, a vanilla latte with a shot of caramel syrup, is simple but delicious – a refreshing twist on classic coffee.
- Olivia Rodrigo
-
Olivia orders a grande, iced matcha latte with coconut milk, four pumps of raspberry syrup and vanilla sweet cream cold foam blended with strawberry puree.
This drink did not disappoint. The raspberry syrup blends perfectly with the earthy taste of the matcha, and the cold foam adds just enough flavor without being too overwhelming. After tasting this matcha, I swear I ascended to heaven. I now know what my new go-to drink will be at Starbucks.
Overall, trying these orders did help me diversify my Starbucks orders and helped me to gain some insight into celebrities’ daily lives. Some of them have great taste in Starbucks, and some of them… not so much.
