Question (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by Alissamichele
does the starbucks item sticker always show the number of shots are in your drink? Ex: I ordered an iced mocha with white mocha & coconut milk & I can’t taste any “coffee” taste...

Well it makes sense that you wouldn’t taste much coffee if you’re getting both white mocha and mocha...that’s a lot of syrup in the cup.

Only if you’ve modified the number of shots. If it doesn’t say anything, you’d get the standard number of shots.
The lack of coffee flavor can most likely be explained by the fact that, unless you specified how many pumps of each syrup you wanted in your drink, your drink had double the amount of regular syrup. For example, if you got a grande iced mocha and added white mocha, you would get a total of 8 pumps of syrup, 4 of each, which would definitely effect the coffee taste.

Yeah, there is so much sugar in that drink you wouldn't taste coffee.

Would you like some coffee with that syrup??

only if you modify how many shots go in it. if you got an iced grande i believe it’s two shots, venti gets three? you can always add or subtract the amount of shots you get, just say like “oh can you make it a single shot” or “make it a quad” to increase the amount of espresso you can taste :)
edit: someone correct me if i’m wrong i’ve only been here a few months haha

I’d recommend getting 2 pumps of mocha and 2 pumps of white mocha next time as others have already explained that you got double the syrup

All of your numbers are wrong, oh my goodness, please look at some recipe cards!
All talls get one shot of espresso, grandes get two, hot venti's get two, and cold venti's get three. The only drink that comes standard with four shots would be venti americanos (hot or iced), or a venti iced flat white (and those would be ristretto). Also the standard number of syrup pumps for a venti iced drink is six, so it would have been six white and six regular mocha unless otherwise specified.
