Starbucks' Secret Menu

Captain Crunch Frappuccino
MyGloss: We know that many chain restaurants have secret menus — most Los Angeles-area fans of In & Out Burger are well aware of the chain’s infamous “secret menu” which isn’t that big of a secret anymore. But Starbucks’ secret menu? That was news that our friends over at TheDailyMeal.com shared with us.

So what’s on Starbucks’ secret menu? Here’s a quick look at a few of the items — head over to TheDailyMeal.com’s slideshow for a full list and a closer look.

Chocolate Dalmatian — A White Chocolate Mocha with java chips and chocolate chips sprinkled in.

Cake Batter Frappuccino — Perhaps a little deceptively named, as there are no actual piece of cake or cake batter in it, this beverage adds vanilla and almond syrup to a Vanilla Frappuccino.

Green Eye — A Red Eye or Black Eye, sure — that’s one and two extra shots of espresso in a regular drip, respectively. But those that go for green get a sure-to-jack-you-up three shots of espresso boost to their cup of coffee.

Zebra Mocha — Sometimes also called a “Penguin Mocha,” this drink combines the white chocolate mocha with the regular mocha for those who can’t pick a favorite. Or, if you really want to take it to the next level, ask to have raspberry flavoring added for something called the “Red Tux” Mocha

Captain Crunch Frappuccino —Fans say that the combination of hazelnut syrup (though some folks contend it should be toffee nut) in a Strawberries and Creme Frappuccino is a dead ringer for the flavor of Captain Crunch cereal.
