My friend sent me a link that showed a few valentine drinks that Starbucks carry. They are strawberry or raspberry frapps. I pulled up a picture and they does look delicious. I got a hot chocolate there the other day and I didn't mind it to be honest. We usually get together a few times a year go to the movies, and then starbucks afterwards.

There are three Tim Hortons within 10 minutes of my house, about 7-10 within a twenty minute drive. The closest Starbucks is at least a 30 minute drive. I think I'll pass.

@ricki_911 I live 50 km from the closest Tim's or Starbucks. In that city there are 2 Tim's and one Starbucks plus the Safeway Starbucks. But it's not like in Ontario with so many Tim's.

That is exactly my stereotypical picture of Ontario. Tim Horton's on every corner.

Is a Frappe coffee. I've never had one but if it's coffee Starbucks is way to strong for my liking.

It's an ice coffee sort of drink. i usually get a very small size because I agree it is very strong.

@ricki_911 I probably wouldn't care for that.

They do sound good. I know Starbucks can be pricey at least here which is why I only go special occassions.

@kevin1877uk I am trying to look it up but nothing really says. Just basically says depends on the store.

I am not sure. She sent me the article from Cosmo. So I am not even sure if Canada is doing it this year or has all of them.

Maybe I'll try seasonal desserts if they have any but not a fan of coffee!

I love Starbucks and will travel to the other side of the city to get one of their coffees in preference to the Tim Hortons swill.

@ricki_911 When I cam to Canada I was already a Starbucks fan. The problem with Tim Hortons was that it was like stepping back 10 years, something I wasn't prepared to do.

@pgiblett That does make sense. Tim Hortons is lacking behind but the price is good which I think is why people go to them. I don't mind McDonalds coffee/ hot chocolates.

I do notice a different in taste, but I go to Tim Hortons for the cheaper product and convenience.

I do not like coffe so I would not try any coffee drinks there. I do like hot chocolate.

I find the coffee strong so I would get a very small size. I don't mind their hot chocolate but can be strong.
