I totally agree ONBarista. I need to get myself down to Sacramento soon and see if these are still down there. It’s been about 4 months, and it’s really possible that the test is over.

I loved the Honey Vanilla but maybe it’s too expensive?? I really can’t recall where I heard this, but I’ve heard that honey is an expensive product to use in a coffee house – That the honey latte was expensive too. I wonder if it’s just not an economical beverage?

Far easier to make another sugary drink with a syrup like dark cherry than to launch yogurt and honey, I bet.

oh, I hope they launch these. I love yogurt smoothies. I get smoothies once in a while instead of eating something heavier, but I can see that happening a lot more often w/ these!

I tasted the Vivanno and liked it as well. Not my favorite but certainly a decent snack

Dana, I’ve experienced that “chalky” taste as well and realized that it’s the protein&fiber powder they put in it. Try the Vivanno sans that powder and you will probably like it more.

I tried the Vivanno and didn’t like it at all. The honey vanilla sounds good but all we have are fruity flavors that taste chalky. Or did I just go to a bad Starbucks?

*WANT* I need to try the Honey Vanilla Vivanno now…omg I REALLY do! Some mornings I actually DON’T feel like a coffee – that would be a good time for these!

Hi Melody it’s me again. I just love Vivanno and can hardly wait to try the new flavors and wonder why since the headquarters of Starbucks is here in Seattle they don’t introduce them here. It’s a conundrum!

@Akarisame – I really wanted to try both new Vivannos but I only had one shot in Sacramento and after drinking a whole Vanilla Yogurt & Honey Vivanno and had no room for another. All I can say is the sooner these get launched, the better.

Well here I am Melody as promised and I must say I am quite impressed. I too was sort of curious but not as curious as you and certainly did not get up early to see it. I happened to have a doctors appointment at Group Health so after my appointment I went up to look and I must say I was definately not impressed and just stayed long enough to put my business card on their bulletin board. Oh yes I think I asked if they honored the gold card! Sure hope Howard has gotten this out of his system!!
