The funny thing about those keto refreshers is that the water doesn’t contain the sugar in them. So when you remove water and replace it with heavy cream it still has all the sugar from the refresher base.

I gave up trying to explain it to them, just let them suck down their giant cup of horse shit 😂

Not only that, a normal scoop of berries ALONE has sugar too...never mind the extra thousand scoops they get.....

Plus that amount of heavy cream is +/- 50% of a keto diets total daily carb allotment.

1 tbsp has 2g of sugar...
SurgeQuiDormis 2 points 3y ago
... and even just two ounces=8g of sugar. If it's heavy cream/no water(as have every one of these refreshers I've had the displeasure of making in two years) that's a minimum of 16g of sugar, up to 24+g.
Keto=20g carbs max as a general rule. Some do 40, but testing indicates that doesn't actually keep your body in ketosis so it's not really keto. 50% was actually a very generously low percentage.

I had one yesterday who was trying to get a keto peppermint mocha frapp.
I did some figuring, and I now know that a pump of frapp base has ~ 15g sugar, and for every two tablespoons of peppermint syrup, you have 17g sugar. A tablespoon is .5 oz, and one pump of syrup is about .35 oz, so for every pump of peppermint syrup you have about 6g sugar.
From that I found that a grande coffee frapp with peppermint and skinny mocha has approx. 57g sugar, which is 27g more than the daily recommended intake of added sugar for women. Even without peppermint syrup, that would be 45g of sugar, which is still 20g more than recommended.
Some of these keto drinks are absolutely wack.

Not a keto drink, but I was looking up the “nutritional value” of some of the drinks on the app, a Venti Toasted White Mocha has....... 91 grams of sugar. So that nonfat milk people require doesn’t do jack shit.

i’ve learned to identify the real keto ppl from the fad dieting keto karens. the real ones always get their coffees with a lil bit of heavy cream in it and the ones who do it for the clout are like “SuGAR fREe VANI LLA?? BETter GEt 15 pUmPs!!1!!1!2!11!” and expect it to work??? like nah sis it don’t work like that

also just plain black coffees and unsweetened teas (maybe a single stevia in there). those are the only true ‘keto’ drinks one can have. the fad dieters never wanna be wrong so give them all the sugar they ask for,, it isn’t anyone’s fault but their ego that their bodies aren’t in ketosis 🙃
priyasingh25 3 points 3y ago
yeah we’re not dietitians so who are we to tell the fake ones what’s right and what’s wrong. just let them do what they think is right and carry one
smaidit 4 points 3y ago
our real keto people get americanos with light heavy cream or grande pikes with 2 butters. the fake keto people at my store get iced coffees with 8 pumps sf vanilla and 8 pumps sf cinnamon dolce extra heavy cream extra whip 🙄

TinyItalian 19 points 3y ago
Our most popular keto order at our store is a passion tango with no water, heavy cream, and sugar free vanilla.... es nasty 🤢
Meinax151 [OP] 10 points 3y ago
I love when it takes that person like a few minutes to get to the window and all the proteins start to separate and make the drink look pulpy 🤢
pleasesurpriseme 8 points 3y ago
We get those a lot, but with 6-8 splendas added too. Grossssss.
clostri 17 points 3y ago
You forgot the splenda 🤢🤢

LKP95 5 points 3y ago
I hate that we are allowed to make that lol
Meinax151 [OP] 13 points 3y ago
I'm a firm believer that the customers of Starbucks have wayyyyyyy more freedom in the drink making process than they deserve
DizzyCroutons 3 points 3y ago
This guy comes in around 6 or 7 every night and orders a tall latte with five shots, 7 pumps of sugar free cinnamon dolce, and heavy cream. i worry about him.

Someone came through the DT today and said “can I get the keto refresher” and the DTO replies “I don’t know what keto is”
Meinax151 [OP] 3 points 3y ago
I always tell "secret menu" people that the drink they're requesting doesn't exist and only if they have the recipe and not a vague description I can try to make it but most people just whine and bitch "but it's called so and so you MUST know it, it's all over tik tok and Facebook" me not looking at either "I can't help you" them "FINE JUST GIVE ME AN ICED CARAMEL MACCHIATO" me "what size?" Them "An IcEd CaRa" me "yes I know I said WhAt SiZe Karen"
AndrewtheRey 2 points 3y ago
So far, my store is pretty lax with all that. Customers generally know what they want here and will usually not cause any trouble trying to get it. I had a guy come in the other day and request a tie dye Frappuccino and I didn’t even know that was in the menu before and the SM told him that we didn’t have the ingredients to make all of it, and he thankfully was fair. I can’t believe it but I haven’t had to deal with a Karen yet. My customers are generally very patient when I’m doubling drive and politely ask them to wait. My problem though is when I’m busy and I get to the window, read them their total and scan their app and they don’t have enough money and they say “oh wait, I need to reload X.xx on my card” and one day someone came to the window with a van full of children and they’d ordered a ton of y’all Frappuccino’s and cake pops and they said “I need 6 venti waters too” and I think the look on my face pissed her off, but hey, “make the moment right” amirite

Fuck Keto
decaturking 2 points 3y ago
I educate them about the amount of sugar they are consuming in the berries and that the drink is very NOT keto. Then make a true (easy keto) suggestion.
BoringBrittany 2 points 3y ago
I have someone who does this but asks for it without base and gets mad EVER time when it has a weird consistency, even though we tell her every time its gonna be weird and gross.
darkwolf523 1 points 3y ago
Nah I’ll just walk away and get things like milk, refreshers, etc
