Starbucks' drinks

Hello. Do you like Starbucks' drinks? Visit them often at all? Cause I do.
Recently I got hooked on this caramel ribbon crunch shit. It tastes so good, I almost would give them a hundred dollars if that was the price they asked for. Anyway, I have been thinking that going to Starbucks as often as I do costs a lot of money, and these drinks, when you get down to it, are just ice slush mixed with syrups. So I have been thinking, is there a way of replicating these things at home, all by myself? I can sure get a canister of whipped cream and possibly get some of those crunchy brown sugar rocks thing that they sprinkle on the finished drink. But where can I go to buy the syrup, though?
Anybody here tried to make their own "mini-Starbucks"?

Its an expensive habit. Truth be told though you could probably recreate these things at home. Google search a recipe and im certain some fan boys have a decent clone for you.

No I don't really visit them often. When I do, I generally just get coffee..
My wife is addicted to that shit and calls it coffee and I make this face:
Frappuccino and all that shit ain't fucking coffee.. It's a goddamn syrup milkshake with a bit of caffeine added.
--------------------
With my face against the floor I can’t see who knocked me out of the way. I don’t want to get back up but I have to so it might as well be today. Nothing appeals to me no one feels like me, I’m too busy being calm to disappear. I’m in no shape to be alone contrary to the shit that you might hear. You can't wake up, this is not a dream. You're part of a machine, you are not a human being With your face all made up, living on a screen. Low on self esteem, so you run on gasoline

I couldnt agree more. I strong ass cup of coffee with some cream and sugar is far more epic than a bunch of preservative laden shit mixed with ice.
Will get you "higher" too, if you have a low tolerance to caffeine
