Hope you don't mind me commenting -- I clicked on your name when you commented on my fics, and this entry totally riled me up. I love that drink! How could they get rid of it? But you know, they did that with the Toffee Nut Latte, too, and eventually brought it back. Maybe that'll be the case again...
On another note, your addiction's made me feel not so bad about my own coffeeholic ways. ;)
I don't mind at all, it is nice to know that there are others out there who have coffee passion as well.
The guy I spoke to at Starbucks explained that they always do this to new drinks, they introduce them and then pull them after a few months and evaulate their success. He also explained how they had distribution difficulities w/ the Cinnamon Dolce Latte b/c the demand for the syrup was greater then the vendors abilty to supply (which IMO is pretty darn simple - it means the drink was popular). So hopefully it comes back.
The Toffee Nut Latte is really good, perhaps that will be my interim substitute as I cross my fingers for the CDL to reappear.
LOL, next time I go in to Starbucks, I shall complain. "You WHAT? Got rid of the cinnamon dolce latte?" Maybe if we all get people do say that, they'll revive it. ;)

I beg you, buy them as often as you can. Enlist help of anyone who is willing. This MUST be a menu item they put into regular rotation nationwide!
I wonder if your branch of Starbucks would sell me the remaing bottles of syrup????
I am very happy for you and very jealous :)
