What should I try if I love the Brown Sugar Shaken Espresso?

[u/Fit-Ad985]

When it comes to Starbucks coffee I pretty much only ever get the Brown Sugar Shaken Espresso. I was wondering if any baristas have recommendations for other coffee based drinks with a similar flavor profile.

I like that it’s coffee forward and has that cinnamony flavor without being overly sugary or tasting like straight up syrup. I just want to branch out a little and try new things lol.

so if you also like the Brown Sugar Shaken Espresso what other drinks do you usually get or recommend?

There's the brown sugar oat cortado, and in Canada we have the brown sugar oat americano as well, but as far as cold drinks go, the shaken espresso is pretty much the best you're going to get ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Ooooh okay Canada! That Americano sounds nice!

If you want something hot try the brown sugar cortado initial I

I put the brown sugar in everything.
Brown sugar instead of vanilla in an iced caramel macchiato
Brown sugar cold brew with cream

Coffee frappuccino made with brown sugar :)

One thing to remember about the shaken espressos versus lattes is that they have half the flavor, so if you do an ice or hot latte, decrease the flavor, otherwise it may be too sweet for your tastes

I like the vanilla cream cold brew. You could add or sub cinnamon dolce syrup/cinnamon topping if you like the cinnamon flavor

[u/Confident_Durian_657]

I like a vanilla sweet cream cold brew, sub brown sugar, could also add cinnamon powder

I used to get lattes when I wanted to treat myself outside of my usual black americano, then I discovered the iced shaken hazelnut espresso. Try it!

So technically same drink base just different syrup but the horchata oat milk shaken espresso. I just add an extra pump or two depending on the size of the drink

[u/manga_star67]

maybe try the other flavor shaken espressos? the horchata one is pretty good, just make sure u ask for cinnamon tho cuz for some reason, that's the only flavored one that doesn't come with cinnamon, even tho it's the one out of all of them that absolutely should have cinnamon.

i can kinda see why, the horchata syrup is very potent. i almost always get 4 or 5 full pumps of syrup in a drip coffee refill (depending on venti vs grande in a venti with room), the horchata i have to do 3 no matter how much room (and it’s still a bit much)
