Some lady at DT was like “Can I have that Tiktok drink!?” We were like wtf is she talking about?! So we had her find out the ingredients and luckily we were all out of guava and peach juice for it lol haha

I had a customer order two Blended Trenta Dragon Drinks with Heavy Cream, and prefaced her order with “Sorry for being obnoxious 😜.” Sorry, but your self-awareness does not absolve you.

THIS! Just because you acknowledge how much you suck doesn’t make you suck less, Karen and Karen offspring.
G37_is_numberletter5 points3y ago
"Uhmmmm, the K-word is like, on par with the N-word"
Some bullshit that I saw Karens saying online.
earamsey95 [OP]47 points3y ago
Some of them make these extra ass drinks. Like you think I’m gonna crush up dragon fruit to sprinkle on your frappuccino Karen?
SkylerSayys26 points3y ago
If my smores Frappuccino doesn't have purple dust all over but NOT mixed in, i am calling corporate
jupiter_bug7 points3y ago
Has the tiktok drink been changing ingediants? I remember it as being a strawberry refresher with a fuck ton of freeze dried berries and strawberries in it. Possibly blended?? Idk.
gollywhiz4 points3y ago
thats the original that started all this, but people call any drink they see on tiktok the tiktok drink now
dime_store_magic1 points3y ago
We had a woman come through with a picture... she asked if she showed it to us could we make it. We assumed the pic included the sticker or a recipe... NOPE. Just a pic of a drink...
cfuqua2 points3y ago
she wants to buy a photo accessory instead of a delicious drink. LOL

*looks at the person ordering this drink through the speaker box camera* “Yep, this checks out.”
Mayachees30 points3y ago
I hate them too!
If you want to create your super extra drinks. That is fine. We do it at my store. We even have a notebook we write them in.
But don’t torture other stores with your super extra drinks. That is not ok.
regzm24 points3y ago

TIK TOK DRINKS RUIN MY DAY.
Anyone else making Venti iced coffees with sweet cream and 4 pumps white mocha all the damn time now?
Stephiiez10 points3y ago
I’m confused lol, what’s bad about this drink? I’d be fine if all the tik tok drinks were this simple.
DualWeaponSnacker9 points3y ago
It’s never the right amount of sweet cream. So it seems simple, but then you make it four times.
Stephiiez4 points3y ago
Ahhh I get you.
DualWeaponSnacker6 points3y ago
It’s also these teenage ladies and they’ve spent their youth watching their mothers throw fits and get whatever they want. My mom is a Karen. It’s so embarrassing as a lifelong server.
dime_store_magic2 points3y ago
You’re right. As these insane drinks go it’s not bad. But we are going through CUBES of sweet cream because of it. 18 cartons of heavy cream in a day and a half. 🤦🏻♀️
AndrewtheRey2 points3y ago
I wondered why that all of the sudden started being a drink I saw a lot
SkylerSayys17 points3y ago
I hate tik tok batistas too. My one coworker started doing the singing thing which was fine but he tried to get all of us to do it too which.... was not fine.
sunnyismybunny3 points3y ago
What is the “singing thing”?
SkylerSayys7 points3y ago
Someone made a tik to where they sing "thank you for choosing staaaaaarbuuuuuucks" over dto then say normally "what can I get started for you?" Or something like that, my wording may not be 100% accurate.

Someone ordered a freaking ""Ariana Grande"" frappucino the other day and then got mad when I said I had NO idea what that was.
dodofishman4 points3y ago
LMAOO we have an ex-partner who comes through and asks for joke stuff like Pokemon Go frappuccino and he pulled through asking for an Ariana Grande one the other day. I didnt think it was real haha
vajazzle_it1 points3y ago
Pokémon go frappuccino is vbf add raspberry syrup & blackberry inclusions. But it’s definitely not on our menu right now
kthrnlxndr1 points3y ago
Pokemon Go Frappuccino used to be a thing tho
dodofishman3 points3y ago
True! It's just definitely not a thing rn and a lot of us are newer at this store so it worked on us lmao
stevebuckyy1 points3y ago
Apparently it is and it sounds disgusting. I think it was like? Raspberry, white chocolate, hazelnut.... just weird combinations and my barista hated making it.
star_pants3 points3y ago
Same. I miss the good old days of making up recipes on a rare slow day and sharing with baristas in my store. We all knew to never tell customers the more difficult ones because we would never want to subject baristas to it at a busy time. I miss the days of it just being fun and connecting with partners and not for internet clout.
elysemosunset3 points3y ago
That's weird!
1h20girl241 points3y ago
Made a couple mango dragon fruit with vsc blended... yuk... not good at all
TurboBobby1 points3y ago
Love the downvotes 😂 I was trying to say that when they specifically tell you what’s in the drink.
SkylerSayys3 points3y ago
I think you worded it more like the customer is asking us what goes in it, originally, which is why the download. If you can tell us the recipe, its not an issues, especially if you just order it as the recipe. I get people all the time who will order like, the twix Frappuccino, and stare at me for 2 minutes while I explain idk whats in it, holding up my line, only to find out they do. If we are busy, thats extra annoying. I'm trying to get everyone in and out all with a great experience. If, however, you come up and say "can I get a tall caramel Frappuccino but can you add xyz" to it, making xyz the recipe, then its fine. Time efficient and we don't have to sit around trying to figure out what you want for as long.
Seymour_Butes1 points3y ago
This. ❤❤❤
TurboBobby-7 points3y ago
Genuine question... For those customers that ask for these drinks is it still bothersome when they ask for what’s supposed to be in it? Aren’t you supposed to be making it a fun experience and not making them feel like idiots?
carzrule14 points3y ago
Maybe I’m misunderstanding your post, but how am I, a barista, supposed to know what goes into a Pokémon go Frappuccino? I’m trained to know my drinks, not some made up creation.
westhawk7772 points3y ago
see we don’t know what’s supposed to be in it. either a customer or an employee came up with a special recipe and gave it a name. so we have no idea what the name refers to or what the recipe is.
