I can’t believe there is skim milk powder in the syrups! Do you know if that is in most of the other syrups or just the holiday drinks? I recently cut out dairy pretty drastically because I discovered it was causing my chronic migraines so this would be a big deal for me!

  I know, right!! I looked at their menu/ingredient list online at it seems to be in quite a few syrups, sauces, and toppings.

I always get my Starbucks with coconut milk because it makes it taste soo much creamier!

I love the Holiday Spice Flat, I drank it a lot last year with almond milk and enjoyed it! It's not as sweet as the other drinks and less sugar, which is why I like it.

I'm not vegan, but I order like one. I just prefer the taste of the nondairy milk.

AS soon as I got a text yesterday saying it's time, I was there. Tried the same ones you did with almond milk. I'll be going back today.
