starbucks straight up lies when naming drinks?? (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by blueteas
the guava passion fruit drink has NO passion fruit in it just the guava coconut milk and pineapple ginger syrup. and the very berry hibiscus doesn’t have hibiscus in the ingredients nor is it a tea? correct me if i’m wrong on either of those but how is it legal for starbucks to name a drink with an ingredient it doesn’t have???

I figured they were calling the combo of guava and the pineapple syrup “passion fruit” but it still doesn’t make that much sense tbh

oh i 100% made that wrong today then lmao, i haven’t had a chance to look at the recipe and someone ordered it and i made it with passion tea and guava

The good thing is they don’t really know what it’s supposed to be either lol

One of my co workers mentioned that the guava juice infusion had passion fruit in it.
(Can’t confirm by the way) we were just discussing “where does the passion fruit part of the drink come from?” And that’s what they told us

We were wayyyy too busy today to check, but I’ll check the box next time I go in. I believe you though

Also don't try it with peach. It's a mistake. It's so sweet none of us could drink it.

Refreshers are made with green tea extract. That’s why they have caffeine. So technically it is a tea.

i always thought it was green coffee bean extract, i swear it was that as well when i looked :0

You’re right, it’s green coffee extract,not green tea.
mykotman12 1 points 3y ago
I might be wrong then.

It’s made with green coffee extract, not green tea. Refreshers are not tea based at all.

Please don't be rude back when people are rude! It perpetuates the toxicity!
