    Starbucks. Venti organic latte. (Unless I'm watching my calories, then it's a tall.)

    Chai latte....I've concluded that it is a perfect recovery drink. Well, according to me, that is.

    My logic? Chocolate milk is supposed to be a great recovery drink. Milk and sugar with the antioxidant properties of chocolate. By that reasoning, I can justify my chai latte--milk and sugar with the antioxidant properties of tea, not to mention the effects of the spices.

    Peets! Large Nonfat Latte please! Starbucks in a pinch. Local barista - I love Orchard Valley in Campbell. Palo Alto Roasting Co is good too.

    I have become a coffee addict. It's a bad sign when you crave a latte instead of a LemonDrop

    Peets for me!

    Also have many local coffee shops. Jobob introduced a bunch of us to Mission Coffee Roasters and now that's my recovery bev provider after any AC Trail ride.

    Soy chai latte, soy double-shot latte, or plain ol' black brewed coffee.

    I don't know that I have a favorite place to get coffee, but I love Chocolati; they sell their own truffles and you just can't beat a coffee and a locally made truffle! MmmmmmmMMmmm!

    10 Speed Coffee Shop Hood River OR

    My local coffee shop is called 10 speed. It's the bestest. The owner, Brian, is a triathlete, rides a Trek Madone and also races cyclocross. They make very good lattes. They always use whole milk. Mmmmmmmmm.

    He has old Tour de France photos on the wall, sculptures made out of bike parts and bar stools made with old rims and schwinn saddles.

    We have a little cafe called "cuppa de oro". And they have great coffee, but my favorite is a Ice tea drink called "Green Dragon". It is Green tea with a touch of Soy milk , honey, and mint. Over ice of coarse. It is so yummy. I like to get one on monday during our farmers market that happens right in front of the coffee shop. They also have really yummy bagel sandwiches. I think I need to go!

    Starbucks, are you kidding? Darling daughter works at Dunkin and I can't stand that stuff. Starbucks Grande Peppermint Mocha Latte is my fave.
