In Canada between 2 p.m. – 5 p.m. until January 16th 2011, Starbucks has tea lattes for 50% off.
Update: Cassie of Digging up and Out says that Some locations are only discounting the bagged tea lattes. They’ll do the Earl Grey latte for example, but not the matcha or regular chai one. So ask before you order.
I am a huge fan of soymilk Chai Lattes:
I love the spiciness mixed with the sweetness.
It’s like a 2 for 1, folks. 🙂
I also save $0.70 for each drink, because I bring my own cup ($0.10 savings) and I’m a registered Starbucks member with a Starbucks Card, so I get my soy milk for free ($0.60 savings).
Read about Starbucks Rewards and Deals Year round here.
Just today though, I’ve tried the Starbucks Green Tea Matcha Latte and I LOVE IT.
LOVE IT!!
It’s my new obsession.
I know it looks all funky and green, but I love the slight bitterness matched with the creamy sweetness.
So. Good.
If you are scared of trying tea lattes because you don’t want to waste your money then go try them now at 50% off.
I heard from one of my favourite enablers public service announcement criers, The Asian Pear, there’s an Earl Grey Tea Latte out there too.
I’ll have to try it today.
Just a girl trying to find a balance between being a Shopaholic and a Saver.

I saw that. The VENTRA. Sounds like a monster.
I know you are talking about Starbucks here, but if you like the green tea latte you must try Matcha Green Tea (frozen yogurt) at Yogen Fruz. I absolutely fall in love with it.
My recent post My Own Retirement Plan Without RRSP
I am on board to try EVERY matcha green tea item known to man.
I tried a matcha green tea chocolate concept in Lyon, France and now I actually dream about eating those Voisin chocolates again.
My favourite is the earl grey tea latte (aka the London Fog!). So good. I got one today too, it was only $1.80.
I love matcha lattes too- so good! And good for you (full of powerful antioxidants)
And Chai tea lattes..yum!
I usually get tea lattes if I ever visit Starbucks, so this was a good excuse to indulge in that latte factor 😉
My recent post Weekend Ramblings and PF Blog Love- Renovation Edition
the starbucks green tea lattes are addicting. and when they used melon syrup to sweeten the latte, it was even yummier.
My recent post late tuesday night-early wednesday morning
I never asked about the melon syrup! I don’t taste it.
This appears to be only valid in Canada, so US readers are out of luck
OH NO! Sorry. I\’ll fix that.
(Goodness, we actually get a perk Americans don\’t? That\’s surprising..)
Can you believe I've never tried Starbucks?
My recent post True Savings
AT least try ONE drink!
yummm… I like the matcha latte , but just don't like paying.
My recent post Never Stop! Michael Dyer’s Game Winning Run
Which is why I love it at 50% off
I Love LOVE LOVE Starbucks Green Tea Frap! It's the best thing! I guess the green tea latte is the "hot version" ~ 🙂 I just got a Starbucks gift card.. I may do a little Starbucks run this afternoon… if the promotion is still on 😉
My recent post Really Bummed
I wish I had learned about the green tea latte sooner! Why didn\’t you tell me! 🙂
Oh the promo is still on until Jan 16 I think.
ah dang it!! i should have read this BEFORE i went to starbucks this morning and got my chai!!! however it is 9am and i really reeeeeeeally needed it this morning but thanks for the tip! btw working hard on my budget for this year, i love your posts, keeps me motivated that i can save money and somethings just aren't necessary in life to be happy. side note: bought the chai with a gift card from xmas. 😉
My recent post 15 week ultrasound pics
Well at least it wasn\’t so bad then 🙂 IT was a gift card
Try the green tea one next time.
The Earl Grey one is called a London Fog (it has a shot of vanilla syrup in it) and it is divine! I find it a very comforting drink on a cold grey day. I also love the Chai. Thanks for enabling-I'm craving one now, and I have to wait until this afternoon! 🙂
I can\’t wait until 2pm. I\’m actually counting down.
I tried my first Starbucks green tea lattes after reading the Asian Pear's post. I knew right away that I may become addicted and searched for a DIY recipe so that I could make it at home for less $. I used the first google recipe I found (1/2 teaspoon matcha, some hot water, frothed milk and sugar) and got some matcha powder from David's Tea, and what do you know, it tastes pretty close! I need to refine it a little more to my liking. The Starbucks one has melon syrup in it, but I find that one too sweet. FYI, I frothed the milk using my Magic Bullet.
oh yeah, while I was at David's Tea, I got the Earl Grey Cream tea, inspired by your breakfast post. I love it!
My recent post Craving – Urban Decay “Naked” palette
I am trying that DIY recipe!!!
Some locations are only discounting the bagged tea lattes. They’ll do the Earl Grey latte for example, but not the matcha or regular chai one. Ask before you order :s
Oh no! Thanks for letting me know.
Not a problem! I can't get out of the office between 2 and 5, so I used the last of a gift card and got my chai latte fix this morning 😉
My recent post A Thank You
Hahaha 🙂 Glad you got your fix anyway
How awesome! I had no idea they were doing this! I'm going to have to try and make it into a Starbucks this weekend to get a chai latte. Thanks for enabling me 😛
😉
My recent post 11111
Any time. Try the green tea latte 🙂
Soy Chai Tea Lattes are my favorite and I get them pretty much every morning. I've also been a rewards card user for the past year. 🙂
I might have to give the green tea one a try… I think I tried that and the Roobios one awhile ago and didn't like it, but if I can't remember, I could try again.
The Rooibos one sounds weird to me, but I\’m game at $1.70 each 😛
The Vanilla Rooibos Tea Latte is a sweet drink. The tea itself has peach and apple which makes it sweeter than the average tea, then when made into a latte it gets a shot of classic to make it even more sugary. It isn't that good with soy as it overpowers the taste of the tea. It's very popular with regular milk however.
Thanks for letting me know. I think I\’ll skip it because I prefer the green tea just the way it is, and the vanilla rooibos as a tea without any milk or soy milk.
AHHHH! I have been so good about making my own coffee and bringing it to work this month – totally going to go off the rails with this news. I've actually never had a tea latte but I love chai tea. Now's a perfect time to try one, I guess 🙂 Thanks for the heads up!
My recent post ten on tuesday
Sorry.. 🙂 But go get your tea latte on!
