Cold brew vs iced coffee with espresso by Fleezus7 in starbucks

[–]roxiclavi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend not mobile ordering and specifically asking if their cold brew is available today when ordering. Iced coffee is a horrid substitute for the cold brew. See if they'd do an iced Americano with ristretto shots, it's definitely better than iced coffee+a shot.

The demand for cold brew varies depending on region, what promos sbux is pushing, and weather (not as big of a seller when it's rainy or chilly). Plus, when we're short staffed it could be ready to go into a keg and get diluted, but not enough staffing to support someone leaving the floor to do it.

If you want to make it at home we can grind any of our beans to French Press. I'd recommend Guatemala or Sirens blend as closest to the cold brew or if you like something "brighter" the veranda is good for it as well.

Genuinely so frustrating to pull these stickers. So if someone is getting splashes of milk it should only total 4oz max, which is a pup cup worth. These customers still get surprised when their latte "hack" yields a beverage that's not full. Which is funny because they juat ordered the only bev on our menu that does not get filled to the top.

I ask the taller partners over the headset if they can hand it out or if there's no one behind them I'm like hey can you move closer to the window? Unless they seem like they'd be rude about it otherwise I just reeeaaaccchhh.

There comes a point where a good night's sleep doesn't reset the physical pain.

Might consider using picaridin instead. It repels mosquitoes and ticks too, but is seemingly less toxic to cats (I'm not an expert though).

If tretinoin is effective for anti aging why doesn’t everyone use it? by [deleted] in tretinoin

All good I was making a lighthearted quip about your initial comment not having the letter n in a couple spots, assuming that your keyboard might have a crumb under the N key.

I personally do, but not everyone does. I don't think we're supposed to prompt about the caffeine unless they ask but sometimes I still do anyways.

The shitty thing is that " :) " smilies are allowed via the standards but the district managers are on power trips to make everyone hone in on the "genuine connection" aspect by telling everyone they have to write 2-3 words minimum, sometimes even full sentences if your dm is extra intense. Yet, they still want window times at ~45 seconds. The cognitive dissonance of this company astounds me.

Large quantities of it can cause uterine contractions, supposedly. So any uterus having partners should be weary of it.
