Looking Back at Starbucks's Best and Worst Moments of 2015

In order to appeal to serious coffee drinkers, Starbucks released a flat white, but according to Macy Williams, it's a pass. "Intrigued by its latest espresso drink, I visited the nearest Starbucks to try it . . . but its flat white was a little underwhelming. I expected to taste a foamy beverage, filled with extrasmall bubbles. Instead, I tasted a run-of-the-mill latte, with a distinguishable layer of froth on top of the liquid. I was also left hoping for a stronger espresso flavor — the Starbucks flat white has more milk in it rather than equal parts milk and espresso."
