Its a tradition for me to drink this at Xmas and they don't have it yet!

Im friendly with the staff and they told me that theres only a limited supply and to come in at the start of december but it won't be on the board and then they gave me a voucher for a free drink!

So if you like this drink go in then...if you haven't experienced go in its delicious!

It's coming back on the 1st December, and it WILL be on the boards - just very, very, very small. Because there is a limited supply, and we don't like making it very much

Just the sound of it makes me want to puke, but I like the sound of the toffee/nut combo, and I want to taste their dark cherry mocha.

PMSL I thought I was in the X-Factor thread too

I found it rather sickly. I much prefer the pumpkin pie iced coffee Starbucks

Eggnog tastes quite alcoholic actually, not a fave of mine!

Toffeenut latte is ace, dark cherry mocha is tasty but pretty sweet. If you don't like your drink too sweet but want to try the dark cherry, go for a dark cherry hot chocolate.

That's an unusual one that is - I always thought that one tasted alcoholic too.

Because the bigshots have finally realised how unfair it is to throw a different kind of milk at us during the holidays, so have reduced the amount we'll be selling/have to make.

So when your barista tells you: "We have no eggnog left I'm afraid" please believe them!

Couldn't you bring your own supply of eggnog syrup to work and mix it with your own coffee and milk

Do you really need to spend £3 a go at Starbucks for a weak milky coffee with a shot of eggnog?

For a second I thought I accidentally stumbled into the X Factor forum.

It's not a syrup we add to coffee and milk - it's a pure eggnog base, that we steam like milk, and add to coffee.

See now you've made me feel guilty for wanting to order this.

I normally order a Chai Eggnog Latte , mmmm. I first had it in America. It's delicious. The starbucks staff at my local place always gave me odd looks when I ordered it.

Edit: I should add, Starbucks imho is the most under appreciated customer service out there. They are great customer service.. probably the best I've ever had the pleasure of being served by.

Sorry! It's Christmas, you're allowed to indulge at this time of year I know someone that gets a Chai Latte with caramel syrup and whip on top, which is stranger than your order if you ask me!

The gingerbread latte is so good - have it with skimmed milk - can't be too calorific then

I've never liked the Eggnog Latte but I know a few people that have been a bit put out that it's not on the menu this year.

However, the chocolate cookie latte from Costa is amazing. I can't get enough of it! Anyone else tried it?
