None of the new drinks are my favorite. I work at a Starbucks in a grocery store. We're busy nonstop now.

I feel your pain 😭 I'm at a vons in the middle of a neighborhood and everyday were crazy busy, store sales (not Starbucks) up to 250,000,000 a day literally a million dollars a week!

I feel bad when customers order this

it’s actually amazing with vsc instead of nonfat

Tastes even better with packaged honey versus the honey pump!
Tangofett427 points3y ago
Don't tell people that! Peak baristas hate the packets
hushdrinkcoffee2 points3y ago
Baristas do hate it. Thought the honey pump stuff is vile. I had such high hopes for it.

It’s not because of that. It’s way too viscous to deal with especially with cold drinks.

it tastes like salty dish water

If any customers ask me about it, I’m gonna straight up tell them it’s not good...I want to tell them not to order it anytime somebody does. I’ve even told a regular not to order the golden drink when she asked about it, it’s so nasty.

lol I like the golden ginger drink, I find it very fragrant. I always let them try it out, and I’m always prepared for a remake honestly. It surprises me when they don’t bring it back.
_retail_bitch_3 points3y ago
I have been telling people its not good, because it’s fuckin nasty, I usually suggest the salted caramel one
official_koda_3 points3y ago
It would be better if it was made using the vanilla sweet cream...not sure who came up with using regular milk, it’s horrible
_retail_bitch_1 points3y ago
I also have added vanilla syrup to the cold brew and I’ve done that for a few people and they actually really liked it. Idk the whole idea of using nonfat for that drink was just dumb, like I get it foams well most of the time but in a drink that’s wack to begin with... ew
official_koda_2 points3y ago
I think it’s also just not a good mixture of ingredients in general. At a local coffee shop near me I’ve had cold brew with honey syrup(a MUCH better tasting syrup than ours) and it was really good. And I’m the type of person who usually always needs milk or cream in my coffee so I was hesitant at first but it was great.

U rite tho
Imnewtoit4 points3y ago
It needs a base with more fat in it. Maybe half and half or cream

One time we had someone in drive get a HCMT with 10 packets of honey 😔
Ziaheart3 points3y ago
I liked it. Not a fan of the salt, but all the other parts, I thought was good. /unpopularopinion
Inimitable--original2 points3y ago
Same!
rolizzl1 points3y ago
IT DOES!!! the salt was wayyy too overpowering for me lol
Meinax1511 points3y ago
I had to spit out the toasted honey cold foam when we first got it, the toasted honey salt topping tastes like chemicals!

It tastes like sweat to me

Every barista at my store who tried it said the exact same thing.
crzyshiba1 points3y ago
Hahahah
Getpa-1 points3y ago
Lol, all my co-workers mentioned that as soon as they tried it and most hate it. Me being a guy who don’t care still like the drink and order it once in awhile; even when my co-workers refuse to make it for me. 😂

espressnooo-12 points3y ago
