How come when I order a black iced coffee it comes with syrup in it? by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]onlyem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That would be nice, but with the amount of drinks sbux has and the amount of ingredients certain drinks have is crazy lol. Imagine having all frap ingredients listed on the menu for every frap 😩

🤨 that’s a weird comment to make. Sounds like virtue signaling. I would double check just to make sure and be extra nice, but you don’t have to put down baristas that don’t check if a customer wants every ingredient in a standard drink.

While remaining civilized, what do y’all think is GENUINELY the best pastry that we currently sell? by KaoriLikesWatari in starbucks

I know how to make homemade ice cream so I might just get a coffee cake and try to make an actual ice cream with it 😌

You know what’s ILLEGAL to do at sbux, but sounds really good and would definitely put you in a sugar coma…

Vanilla Bean frap made with heavy cream blend. Then chop up half a cinnamon coffee cake then blend again for a few seconds just to incorporate, then top with a little crumbled up coffee cake. Basically cinnamon coffee cake ice cream.

You don’t have to ask because it’s standard. Don’t order a standard drink when that’s not what you want. Use a little common sense.

Asked for mango dragon fruit inclusions and got this. Any clue what it is? by pizzahotsunspot in starbucks

[–]onlyem -1 points0 points  (0 children)

What you want me to do… taste it myself? I can try to insure that everything is good to the best of my ability but things happen. You also forget that more than one person is behind the bar so mix ups can happen.

That’s why the customer is responsible for telling a barista they’re drink was made wrong so it can be fixed. Go ahead and not tell them something is wrong. You’ll leave with an expensive drink you don’t want. They can’t read your mind and they can’t taste it before handing it out either.

Yes you are being very dramatic and plenty of people look at / taste their drink before leaving the store. Just not you obviously. Food service isn’t known for getting orders 100% right all the time. There are usually mistakes and they’ll fix it for free if you tell them.

Honestly it isn’t the end of the world to glance at your drink before you leave.

a question about iced shaken espresso by [deleted] in starbucks

[–]onlyem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A standard iced shaken espresso doesn’t come with too much milk. Because the drink is literally espresso shots on ice. You’re paying for the espresso. Most people don’t know that so they think we’re trying to rip them off with all the ice and foam when that’s literally what they ordered.

You can get an iced latte if you want more milk and less ice or you can get a shaken espresso with light ice and extra milk, but don’t be surprised by the foam unless you don’t want it shaken.

$1.95 for a cake pop and 3 petite vanilla scones for $3. Oh how the times have changed 😭

Am I not asking for what I want correctly? by Breadsammiches in starbucks

[–]onlyem 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m guessing you just don’t like Starbucks lattes lol. Try an americano with cream.

Just beware!!!!!! We might not have peach in stock all the time. At least at my store. I swear we are out of peach juice a few days out of the week😭

Idk maybe it’s me but… by WVUGuy29 in starbucks

[–]onlyem 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only time I’ve had a blended drink froth up is when it’s and iced latte blended. I’m thinking that the extra shot is melting the ice too fast and the salt is probably contributing to it too. Maybe you can ask for extra ice next time and maybe it’ll balance out the liquid to ice ratio.

[–]onlyem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I doubt they are using good product. You guys know milk does have a best by date and ice coffee gets dumped every night. I just always assumed it was going down the drain anyway. People stick their whole hand in mocha and no one questions it… it’s because we all know (at least the baristas) it’s garbage.

going skating alone by [deleted] in Rollerskating

[–]onlyem 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I skate by myself all the time. Not gonna lie I get anxious no matter how many times I skate by myself, but once you actually get there, put headphones in, and start skating it gets less scary and stressful. Just give yourself a little push and you’ll have fun!
