It&#8217;s also where Starbucks just opened its new Reserve Roastery. This espresso-meets-mocha drink consists of espresso, mocha, and whole milk.<\/p>\n<h3>How is it?<\/h3>\n<p>I enjoyed the dark mocha flavor &#8211; the description says it has a taste of dark chocolate, which I definitely tasted. It felt like I was indulging in a super dark chocolate bar. Give me all the chocolate! There&#8217;s more of a coffee taste than Starbucks&#8217; regular mocha, which in my opinion is creamier and less coffee-like. Because it seems like I&#8217;d be drinking dessert, I rarely get a regular mocha. Coffee is what I want! <\/p>\n<p>I took my time with it and found it to be more of a sipping drink that can last you through the morning.<\/p>\n<h3>Is there anything else I need to know?<\/h3>\n<p>The menu sign at my neighborhood Starbucks advertised this as a short, but you can get it in any size. My friendly barista shared that both the short and the tall have two shots of espresso, so it just depends on how much milk and mocha you want with it.<\/p>\n<h3>Conclusion:<\/h3>\n<p>I thoroughly enjoyed the sophisticated feel of the Starbucks Cordusio. Heck, even the name sounds fancy! I&#8217;ll definitely get again, now that I&#8217;m finally moving to hot drinks after iced coffee season.<\/p>\n<p><b>Purchased Price:<\/b> $4.45<br \/>\n<b>Size:<\/b> Tal<br \/>\n<b>Rating:<\/b> 8 out of 10<br \/>\n<b>Nutrition Facts:<\/b> (Tall\/12 fl. oz.) 200 calories, 9 grams of fat, 5 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, 25 milligrams of cholesterol, 110 milligrams of sodium, 20 grams of carbohydrates, 17 grams of sugars, 9 grams of protein, and 155 milligrams of caffeine.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>What is the Starbucks Cordusio?
