Fuck the Mocha Cookie Crumble (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by cobanat
Can we all agree that the Mocha Cookie Crumble is the worst drink to make and sell? It’s literally a more expensive Java Chip

Were you around for the Witches Brew or the Sunrise/Sunset drinks about a year and a half ago? Those were the stupidest and most convoluted drinks ever. They were literally only made for the instagrammable aesthetic. They tasted like shit

Must’ve been further back cuz I don’t remember those. I did have to deal with the Tie Dye Frap that was basically just aesthetic

I left right before that drink. The sunset/sunrise was summer 2018 I believe and the witches brew was Halloween 2018.
Sunset required cold foaming a powder and 2% which never worked properly, if I remember correctly. It was an ombré type drink. Basically the whole drink was foam

At least those were limited time, now the mocha cookie is a core item 😐

I actually liked the sunset drink.. it was 50ml no fat and 50ml of passion tea. The drink base I don’t fully remember though. Reminded me of a fancy drink I’d get at Disneyland/CA Adventures!

I suggested that our team get pins or something, like pilots marked downed planes, for every tie dye frap we made.

I stole the Tie Dye Frap sign after it was taken down. It’s just in my room now

What about the monstrosity we called the protein blended cold brew 🤮🤢
suenologia 14 points 3y ago
imma go out on a limb and say that the new honey almond flat white is officially *worse* than the protein blended cold brew – flavor-wise at least
murphmanfa 3 points 3y ago
My ASM called it "aggressively neutral" in flavor. I feel like that has to be better than protein blended anything.
suenologia 3 points 3y ago
is “aggressively neutral” corporate-speak for “tastes like cardboard”

Possibly. I haven't tried it myself but he said that it was basically "yes, those are all flavors in this. They are not bad. They are okay"
There's nothing to really stand out, flavor-wise. The honey is a neutral flavor, the almond milk is a neutral flavor, the blonde espresso is pretty mild already and it's even more so since it's pulled ristretto. I have very little coffee/latte knowledge, but even I can tell that.
