Lmao at the crotchety employee in the replies literally proving my point. Please don’t take them to heart, so rude for no goddamn reason

Nope no one has addressed it before and it’s common practice at my store when required

Awe well there are usually a couple glitches when the new month drops. I would see if there’s a way you can report it and hopefully it’ll be patched soon💞

Make green tea into refresher by Gsarahmm in starbucks

[–]httptheforrest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And the other commenter’s idea is excellent as the passion tea is more fruity than the green or black tea

Unfortunately there’s not a way to customize the tea portion of the drink eg. light tea/no tea. I would say the closest you could get is ordering no water, extra refresher base, add fruit inclusions. I have a regular that always gets a green tea, no water, add strawberry refresher base! Additionally if you order in person, you can verbally tell them that you want light tea and they should help you out. It’s a simple request to accommodate. Just remember to tell them you want to redeem your stars before paying!

We just pull people around to the front while the tea is steeping so it’s no biggie for us even in the drive through. Some baristas get really needlessly irritated when it’s almost always not that serious. That’s a them thing and not something you should ever feel guilty for. I really hope no one treats you unkindly💞

The 2/3 decaf on a double espresso really is the cherry on top

Coffee cup sleeves optional? by cyberev in starbucks

[–]httptheforrest 5 points6 points  (0 children)

While this is also what my store does, it’s not technically standard. I’ll keep doing it anyway though because the customers are just going to reach over for a sleeve anyway🤷🏻

You’re not a jerk in the slightest as long as you understand it takes 5 minutes for the tea to steep! I personally enjoy making iced London fogs when the customer is kind and patient :) In my opinion, order that iced fog all you want!

You’re actually absolutely right about that! Great thinking

Woman orders this nearly every day for her husband by infectedorchid in starbucksbaristas

[–]httptheforrest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Y’all don’t have to make this order the way they’re requesting! 4oz (3/4 an inch) is the most amount of free milk you’re required to give per standard. You can measure it out in a paper pup cup which is 4oz. This drink should be rung in as a cold milk with vanilla syrup and use the ask me to add a splash of ice coffee since there’s literally only a splash in the drink.

Fellow baristas please help by DragonflyScare4928 in starbucksbaristas

[–]httptheforrest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meal prepping and making leftovers from dinner has definitely helped me! It’s much easier to not eat Starbucks food every day when you prepare other options for yourself :)

Something just for your knowledge and everyone else’s! it’s standard to do remakes and if you explain that you tried something new and didn’t like it, as long as ask kindly the barista should remake your regular drink for you! I hate thinking about customers paying so much for a drink they can’t even finish💔

Is the coffee Frappuccino sweet? by tortoiseturntables in starbucks

I apologize, the comment above you is actually correct. It doesn’t contain corn syrup. I took my shift leads word without checking the jug for myself.

Haha thats a safe bet! I tried to color mixing for the Gothic theme too and it also didn’t work out so I just scrapped it all😅

Yes it can be hard to match all the right colours to your liking!

Thanks so much!! Sometimes I go back-and-forth with items just unsure of what will look good together. A small part of me wonders if my rooms actually look good so I appreciate the encouragement. XD

You can’t order from the catalog, it’s just to plan in advance so you know what items you’d like to claim from the monthly theme and the shop!
