Cold bar speed? (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by ehrle100
How do you get to be fast on cold bar. I can handle a couple drinks, but when there are 12 drinks lined up, I get stressed and people start waiting 8 minutes in the drive thru. Anyone got tips for speed? Thanks.

I definitely don’t double batch. Nope. Don’t do that at all.

Honestly just imagine you only have a couple drinks. You can start to overwhelm yourself if you keep thinking about the 12 drinks you have to make. If you keep the mindset that it’s only a couple it somehow makes it easier to handle

Honestly, just start with some frappuccinos in the blenders and then if you can shake two refreshers/teas at once. Using one hand for a shaker can be difficult but it just takes some practice, I would practice doing it with ice water first. If you sequence your drinks correctly then always having something in the blenders and shakers will cut down on some time.

Sequencing 2 drinks at a time will keep you fast and making consistent quality drinks. Keep queing up that third drink while you are liding and handing off your first. Pacing is important so you don't burn out or get overwhelmed. Think of it as a long jog rather than a quick sprint.
