Why would I even mention it if she didn't mention Starbucks?

You left off the second part of what I said though. Not only are chai lattes a legitimate drink that plenty of coffee shops do serve, but the only places I've found even halfway decent ones are Starbucks and at a mediation retreat where it was done very traditionally and such (and basically is what chai tea latte is supposed to be), so I really think that it's totally legitimate for her to mention Starbucks in that context...
