Delicious white chocolate pudding in drinks

Starbucks Coffee (Wan Chai)

When I found out about the new drinks at Starbucks I was captivated by the white pudding in it.
There is a choice of dark mocha or green tea, both with white chocolate pudding at the bottom.

I couldn't decide which to get so I got both, I was expecting the green tea to taste better because I don't really like coffee but the dark mocha tasted the best out of the two.

Dark Mocha White Chocolate Pudding Frappuccino® blended beverage:
The dark mocha did not have strong coffee taste which was great and in the drink there where bits of solid chocolate to chew on.
The white chocolate pudding was nice because it balanced out the mocha taste and it was creamy and tasted like Nestle's milky bar chocolate.

Green Tea White Chocolate Pudding Frappuccino® blended beverage:
This was the usual green tea frappuccino but it tasted too sweet and with the white chocolate pudding it was a bit sickly.

2012 Jump into Autumn series - Dark Cherry tart at Starbucks

Walked past to see if there were any new items and they had the autumn series.
The autumn series had these cute mini bagels, Dark Cherry tarts, Molten chocolate cakes (which McCafe is now serving as well) and the cinammon, pear and muesli yoghurt cup.
I got the cherry tart because I love dark cherries.

Dark Cherry tart:
Basically it was a chocolate coated butter short crust tart base filled with a thin layer of chocolate cake, cherries and covered with cream and a cherry on top.
The tart was really delicious and the sweetness was just right.
It was really good there were more cherries beneath the cream because cakes with cherries do not often have much cherries in it.
I just felt that there was too much cream so I scraped some of it away.
If it had been freshly whipped cream it woiuld have been perfect or if the crust was not so buttery because the buttery flavour was a little too overpowering.

Ice shaken Lemon Tea @ Starbucks

After trying the COOL LIME I decided to try the Ice shaken lemon tea which has been on the menu for a long time.

In comparision to the COOL LIME I found this drink much more refreshing and natural.

As for the tea, there is a choice of green tea and red tea for this drink.

Cool Lime and cheese and broccoli pie @ Starbucks

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Cool lime
The drink looked quite nice when I got it, lots of frothy bubbles on top.
However there was some solid bits which I thought was lime but then it turned out to be plastic when I took it out, perhap part of the lid.
As for the taste, there was nothing wrong with it, but not my cup of tea because it had mint and lemongrass which I do not like but the poster just said Cool Lime so I was expecting Lime to be in it and not those ingredients.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Cheese and broccoli pie
I expected the pie to be nice and cheesy and did not expect to use the ketchup however the pastry had a really strong butter taste and smell so in the end I needed the ketchup because the cheese and broccoli filling was tasteless.
