They’ve got a secret…
February 4, 2015
A recent craze among food chains recently is having “secret menus”. Basically, these menus consist of items off the regular menu that are a bit strange and are usually revealed on social media or by word of mouth. A classic example from Chipotle is the quesorito, a quesadilla-wrapped burrito that’ll have you needing an ambulance after all those calories! One of the most famous secret menus is from Starbucks. Over 200 types of off-the-menu drinks are catalogued on many websites (check out http://starbuckssecretmenu.net/) and available at many stores. Here are four of the most popular secret menu drinks!
Cotton Candy Frappacino

This drink is known to taste just like cotton candy from a fair! To order, ask for a Vanilla Bean Frappuccino and add raspberry syrup.
“Dirty” Chai

This little creation gives you the boost of coffee with the benefit of tea. Just order a Chai Latte and add a shot of expresso.
The Nutella
For all the chocolate and hazelnut lovers of the world, try “The Nutella”. It’s a bit more complex than the rest, but worth the trouble. Order a Cafe Misto, add mocha syrup, hazelnut syrup, and a few drops of caramel drizzle.
Peach Ring Tea
This childhood throwback is reminiscent of the peach ring gummies many devoured as children. To order, simply get Half Passion Tea and Half Valencia Orange Refresher, ask for no water, and add peach syrup.
