Literally forgot the hazelnut macchiato exists because she is TRASH
thiccplantbabe [OP] 7 points 3y ago
i said the exact same thing. like ah yes, her.
Evcoffeeboy 21 points 3y ago
Whoever got a cascara latte at any point, Godspeed my friend
springolives 7 points 3y ago
I have a regular who gets a venti iced cascara latte with cascara cold foam (I think she invented this modification?)....she is single handedly going through our Cascara bottles lmao.
Evcoffeeboy 1 points 3y ago
I can’t figure out what it tastes like
springolives 2 points 3y ago
to me it just tastes like maple syrup

i was thinking abt this the other day..ppl got them for like a month then they vanished

Sad about to coconut milk mocha macchiato because that was my fave now it’s going to be like a 7-8 dollar drink for customers. The company might be getting a little greedy. I do think they need to allow the mills to be all evenly priced but that’s just my stance.
[deleted] 2 points 3y ago
Yes I agree about the milks. Is the box of coconut really that expensive? I know they price jack but $0.70?? That's a lot to use a different milk...
cardawbal 2 points 3y ago
Exactly. It’s crazy. I know if I didn’t have my partner discount my drink would be 8 dollars at least because I’m lactose.

I'm so glad we're getting rid of that vanilla bean latte. Never had to make them much, but I kinda hated doing it anyway.
PixelFlutter 5 points 3y ago
FUCK yeah at the doubleshot staying, it's one of my faves

And saying __ shots of espresso, in a ___ cup, iced, shaken, __pumps of ___ and light ____ milk on top is such a mouthful.
randomnym 5 points 3y ago
🙃 i promoted the cold foam cappuccino so hard tho, cus of it being health safety-wise better than before cold foam was a thing....
tricializ1 5 points 3y ago
So glad the double shot is staying. But really wish they would make it consistently correct. It is wrong at least 50% of the time. I modify with SF Vanilla and Coconut milk instead of classic and 2% and unless i mobile order, I get charged for the milk and the rest of the time it i often just 2 shots, or everything is shaken or there is so much milk it could be a latte.
PixelFlutter 5 points 3y ago
It's unfortunately not trained very well. It's got a confusing name to a new person, and is juuuuust barely not ordered enough that someone may not learn it/internalize the measurements for a while.

It's one of my favorite drinks to make though, the fun of foamy matcha without the hassle of breathing powder/rinsing goo 🥰
twrizzecks 5 points 3y ago
This may be a dumb question but how would one make an iced cappuccino?
Redacted_Cookie -9 points 3y ago
Cold foam and shots, and ice!
thiccplantbabe [OP] -1 points 3y ago
it’s ice in the cup first, espresso, milk to top line, then cold foam in the rest of the cup
PleaseFeedTheBirds 17 points 3y ago
It's now shots, milk to second line, ice to third, then foam.
thiccplantbabe [OP] 5 points 3y ago
sorry for the formatting, im on mobile
Lotteri 1 points 3y ago
If you're doing this on a compy, i kind of feel bad for you tbh. <3

rip in peace cinnamon almond milk macchiato 😭 one of my fave drinks
[deleted] 4 points 3y ago

lily3600 4 points 3y ago
So does that mean if I order the CMM, baristas won’t know what it is/how to make it? Should I just order it deconstructed from now on? (I.e.. grande iced 1 pump WM, coconut milk, etc)
[deleted] 20 points 3y ago
We will no longer be teaching green beans to make it but if you order it someone may be nice enough to make it for you, if they remember how. Otherwise, yes you will need to order it as a deconstructed macchiato.
thiccplantbabe [OP] 5 points 3y ago
yes that’s the best way to do it!
AgreeableRooster 3 points 3y ago
wait so how will iced cappuccinos be made
thiccplantbabe [OP] 7 points 3y ago
it would be the same way, you would just charge for an iced latte add cold foam
AgreeableRooster 3 points 3y ago
ohh gotcha
boxinghamster16 2 points 3y ago
We make all of these besides the cascara and snickerdoodle on a daily basis. RIP. Karen's will be furious about the price change lmao
pandrea__ 2 points 3y ago
Good thing I just trained my green bean in all of these drinks -just yesterday- now that they’re going away. 🙃
steamed-apple_juice 2 points 3y ago
But why?
thiccplantbabe [OP] 3 points 3y ago
they weren’t particularly popular. according to corporate it’s to make our job easier
angrylatte13 1 points 3y ago
But it's not making our job easier. People still order these drinks and they aren't hard to make. Getting rid of the buttons and making us type things in with their "handy substitute menu" page they gave us makes the drinks come out really expensive and they take extra time to punch in. Then I gotta explain the drink to the customers sometimes and they get confused. What would have helped us the most was keeping this stuff and just stop coming up with crazy confusing drinks.
