Writing exercise

My mother gave me coffee when I was very young. So I am used to drinking coffee. I knew Starbucks in my 16 years old. I am a coffee fan so I went to the shop and bought one. I still remember my first coffee in Starbucks was a cup of mocha. It was my first time to drink coffee with chocolate and cream. It was amazing.
I like Starbucks because I think it tastes the same everywhere I drink it . That is important for me. Now more and more different coffee brand come in China and we have a lot of local brand. I have been to many other coffee brand but maybe once in three is not good. So I still choose Starbucks. I go to the shop very often. I have had every kind of coffee in it .Recently I like coffee latte with a little milk and sugar free. Now I like to collect Starbucks cups also.
