\"Starbucks<\/p>\n

What is the Starbucks Black & White Mocha?<\/h3>\n

Starbucks has brought back its Black and White collection, which includes a Mocha, Hot Chocolate, and Frappuccino. The Black and White Mocha, which I tried, has both dark mocha and white chocolate mocha, whipped cream, and chocolate \u201csequins\u201d (read: chocolate pieces).<\/p>\n

How is it?<\/h3>\n

I consider this the regular Mocha\u2019s older sibling who is all dressed up for New Year\u2019s Eve. It\u2019s trying to make the Mocha fancy, but it just tastes the same – with a fancy description. The chocolate taste is super prominent, with no real white chocolate traces. And although it has 80 milligrams of caffeine in a tall, you\u2019re not getting any coffee taste (which might be a draw for those who don\u2019t like coffee but still want a caffeine hit!). <\/p>\n

I do appreciate how smooth the taste is – it\u2019s a decadent drink that\u2019s more like a special dessert. It\u2019s definitely a calorie bomb at 350 calories for a tall alone. I wouldn\u2019t add this into my morning rotation, but make it more of an afternoon sugar rush.<\/p>\n

Is there anything else you need to know?<\/h3>\n

I enjoyed the drink, but the reason I have it at a 6 out of 10 is that it doesn\u2019t separate itself from a good old Mocha. I was hoping for something a little more exciting, but it fell a bit short. So it has a good taste, but it’s a bit of disappointment in the build up. <\/p>\n

Conclusion:<\/h3>\n

If you\u2019re a sucker for specialty drinks, it\u2019s worth a try. But if you\u2019re looking for an advanced Mocha, you might not find it.<\/p>\n
