No one hates a combination of their favorite Frappuccino with hints of chocolate. If you love what I mentioned, the Starbucks Swamp Monster is the perfect drink. I first saw this drink in a Walmart store after I spotted someone with it across from where I was shopping.

Its bold green color was the one that caught my eye, and I had to ask what the drink was immediately.
