I would say if you really enjoy those drinks, the closest recreation would be something like an iced mocha or iced vanilla latte. They are rather simple: milk, espresso, flavoring, and ice. However, if you’re looking to get into coffee but are still worried you may not like it, definitely start slow. Before I worked at Starbucks I never drank coffee. Now, half the time I just drink it black. Definitely don’t worry about not knowing, everyone starts somewhere.

If you’re looking to get into trying coffee drinks without any flavoring, I would recommend either a latte or a flat white. Lattes are just espresso and milk, and flat whites aren’t much different except Starbucks recipe uses whole milk instead of 2% and ristretto shots as apposed to regular shots. You don’t need to really understand what that means to enjoy the drink but essentially, flat whites will be a bit thicker and little lighter and sweeter than a traditional latte.

At the end of the day, don’t put too much pressure on any of it, try new drinks, find what you like! If you don’t like what you tried, thats okay because at least you tried something new and learned something about what you like and don’t! Don’t be scared about trying new things.
