Another barista posted this gem to Twitter. The second pic doesn’t even have any coffee in it yet. (reddit.com)

“Almond milk” Like oh yeah, better not be dairy, that’ll make your tummy hurt.

“no foam” oh don’t worry michael you won’t have any room for it any way.

also i’m 99.9 percent sure michaels 2 year old got a hold of his phone and started pressing random buttons bc 4 honey and honey blend?
CreepleCorn 27 points 2y ago

i work at a licensed store that doesn’t do mobile/sticker machines and i’m just imagining michael standing at my register for 10 minutes trying to order this drink
PhenomenalPhoenix 38 points 2y ago
Imagine writing that out on a cup with a sharpie. You’d need 4 cups just for the writing and another 3 for the whole drink!
kaitwritesthings 4 points 2y ago
i can’t even imagine how many abbreviations that would be...

why do ppl do this
AlissaS19 26 points 2y ago
they hate themselves
Guilty_Owlz 25 points 2y ago
Or us.
MonstrousGiggling 25 points 2y ago
I'm honestly wondering if maybe they're using it for a baking recipe or something for some kind of home made candy? Thats the only thing I can think possible.
starvingchild 22 points 2y ago
They don’t, a barista there had a free reward drink on their account so they made up the most ridiculous drink they could think of. Outside of the fact that nearly any barista would not make this drink out of concern for the consumer... it’s a pumpkin latte that says “sub cascara topping”- meaning instead of pumpkin topping put cascara (which is discontinued but still on the pos) then down the list of instructions it says “sub pumpkin topping”. 🤔

Edit: also this drink is literally impossible to make because the amount of ingredients in there would overflow the cup before you could even get the coffee in

And in the US. The cascara sugar usually just expires before we use the bottle, so I take them home (with permission). Goes great in tea.

Cascara topping still goes on the coconut milk latte.

Second of shows it's barely contained. I used to play with the app like this, just to see what stupid would cost. I never actually purchased it though.

ETA : Nvm, another comment pointed out the amount of shots and the measurements that it wasn't doing being put in.
porrim_maryam 5 points 2y ago
i've had some people order absurd amounts of syrups and/or mocha to then refuse any coffee or milk, presumably to take it home, refrigerate it, and put it in their own instant coffee or whatever
TheYesExpress 21 points 2y ago
That’s one expensive ass drink.
pink_haired_bitch 23 points 2y ago
I put it together on the app, only $7.65 for a grande and it had 50 fucking pumps total :/ (Southern California, I know prices can be different in some areas)
TheYesExpress 20 points 2y ago
There really should be some sort of limit on shots and sugar intake. I’m like genuinely concerned for these customers, man.
starvingchild 7 points 2y ago
That’s how you know it’s fake... a venti cup holds 20 oz and sauce pumps are about 1oz each. This drink is literally impossible to make
cabotandthefish1804 3 points 2y ago
I had a customer once who did something similar. The first time, she insisted we should have known to make a drink that included the normal amount of milk and shots, then add the pumps, and split it between two cups. I was so happy when my sm gave us permission to refuse.
ladyelenawf 1 points 2y ago
You mean like the Barista did the mobile order on their own just to take a pic for Twitter?
starvingchild 2 points 2y ago
Yeah, since baristas drink for free they likely had no issue using their reward to make their coworkers panic for a few seconds
IcePickMan 12 points 2y ago
Wtf, thats gotta be a joke or something
mochajavalatte25 14 points 2y ago
As a grandma of a 2 year old I’m guessing a little one got a hold of Michael’s phone. My granddaughter has added items to my Amazon cart while she was supposed to be watching Cocomelon as I was doing my makeup lol
Kittywizarrr 3 points 2y ago
Oh my goodness, hi cool grandma!
mochajavalatte25 1 points 2y ago
Awwww thank you 😊
Spare-Ad-8722 11 points 2y ago
Wouldn’t this be like......all syrup ._.
pink_haired_bitch 3 points 2y ago
Basically, the app says 50 pumps when I put it in
Spare-Ad-8722 3 points 2y ago
O___O

THIS
This is exactly the kinda shit that makes me not want to go back working for Starbucks despite my need for a job.
starvingchild 7 points 2y ago
Hi ho- hi ho- it’s off to work we go!!!
HollowRibcage 3 points 2y ago
Listen man I’m trying real hard not to turn back “-“ ... your username isn’t helping reassure that Starbucks is worth it either, I’m starving now and I’ll be starving then ~
ladyelenawf 1 points 2y ago
Target? The one in my area is starting out at about $10 an hour.
HollowRibcage 1 points 2y ago
Isn’t target stores licensed stores not corporate?
joinjimpickenscult 7 points 2y ago
It has so much sugar in it that the UK gov need to tax it.
TheIvoryKitten 7 points 2y ago
This is a monstrosity! Who the hell comes up with this shit!?
AMarie-MCMXCI 15 points 2y ago
Michael
kpriestess19 5 points 2y ago
Nowadays when ridiculous orders like this come through, I just assume they have COVID and have lost their taste. Maybe they think if they order the sweetest drink, they may be able to taste something.
isglitteracolor 5 points 2y ago
I’m more mad that they have honey syrup AND honey packets in it, than I am about the monstrosity of a drink itself
kaitlyn_vargas 2 points 2y ago
That’s gross
goplur 2 points 2y ago
Is this a joke
sparkytheboomman 2 points 2y ago
That’s what I’m thinking. Like it MUST be a troll or something. I can’t imagine anyone actually would order all of this stuff. Some of it doesn’t even make sense
srokk 2 points 2y ago
Because Diabetes !

The insanity of mobile orders never ceases to amaze me, and remain eternally grateful that I work at a licensed store where mobile orders aren't a thing

finzablazin 1 points 2y ago
As I say whenever I see a mobile order like this- people like pushing buttons.
