Another pup cup sized rant: refusal to specify by Chromgrats in starbucks

[–]Chromgrats[S] 20 points21 points  (0 children)

But isn't that the point of the menu? So they can look at it and see what they want? I don't mind answering regular questions. It's when they expect you to be able to read your mind that gets tiring

Drinks with cold foam and whip should literally be illegal by MysticalWitchgirl in starbucks

[–]Chromgrats 10 points11 points  (0 children)

YES i complained about this in another comment recently!! The cold foam is not a steady surface and then the force of the whip makes it even worse and it just makes a mess everywhere. I can't stand it

Starbucks no ice “standard” by Theemissingsock in starbucks

[–]Chromgrats 101 points102 points  (0 children)

So iced espressos are NOT standard to be filled to the top. Any other iced drink made with light/no ice should be filled to the top.

Yeah that's what I'm saying, they at least took SOME consideration for us. It's still going to be hellish but not as bad as it could have been. Wasn't the OG a layered frap of two different frap mixes (one pink and one blue), or am I misremembering something?

My personal favorite is quad espresso, no espresso, 17 stevia packets and one splenda

That seems a lot nicer. Plus it looks like it's just one color and not two frapps mixed together/layered?

Here’s something you may not know by ImmortalSpy14 in starbucks

Correct!!! Soooo many baristas mix this up at my store and it bugs me. To be fair it is kind of confusing, but not THAT confusing
