I'm surprised you guys Google them. We always tell people if they don't have the recipe we can't make it.

We only Google them if the customers are friendly to us, lol.

I know the butter beer and the purple drink recipes and I still make people tell me the recipe, I don't want it to catch on that some of know certain secret menu recipes 😂

Good idea lol, we should start doing that. Most of our customers are tourists though, so I don’t think anyone will figure out. 😂

Yea same here, I work at a beach traffic store in WA. I figure I'm doing a favor for their regular Starbucks.

I’m fine with it unless they don’t know the recipe OR get pissed because it costs more.

I will not make you a drink that is not on the menu unless you can tell me how. Google it yourself, Im not even supposed to have my phone on the floor.

The red velvet is core I believe now. I still don’t like making any of the frapps that are below the creme ones on the screen.

Yeah, it’s a core. Double chocolatey + vanilla +raspberry

I totally understand your pain, but just one thing, wasn’t the red velvet frap a menu item at one point? I agree that you shouldn’t be expected to know that, but at least it’s not a secret menu thing.

Was it a menu item at one point? I’ve only been working for about a year, so I might’ve missed it lol.
AaronF181 points5y ago
Yeah I think about 2 or 3 years ago, I’ve actually only been working for like 3 months but I’ve heard someone order it and got it explained
excitable-kitten3 points5y ago
It’s still a menu item on the POS screen. Blended -> other -> bottom of the page
thegaysamurai964 points5y ago
Red Velvet, Cotton Candy, Lemon Bar, Cupcake, and the Caramel Cocoa Cluster were all secret menu items until 3 years ago. Same with the Pink Drink, if they get popular enough Starbucks just adds em in.
