saving money on lattes  

I used to be one of those, that bought Starbuck's every day;this lasted for about 6 months. One day,my brain FINALLY decided to work the math. Holy Cow!
Ok, I needed a solution right then&there.I found an espresso maker at a second hand store for $12{it's still working to this day,almost 5 yras later}. I also splurged on a grinder from WalMart for like $15. I bought the Starbuck's whole bean espresso,chocolate syrup,adn other assorted flavored creamers.
To this day, I average about $.030 or so on my lattes every day. I've even gotten good at recipes.. like the love bird{tasted like a chocolate covered cherry}For a 'venti' :
4 shots of espresso
1 1/2 cups of milk{ I use nonfat}
1 tbsp. chocolate syrup
a TINY dash of vanilla
1/2 - 1 tbsp pf cherry syrup{depending on your taste}
done!
I love it,but then I'm Italian and love to cook&stuff..lol
Happy New Year!,
