To all the baristas who “create” TikTok drinks, please stop. I feel like I can speak for a lot of people when I say that a majority of us are tired of it. Yes it is out job to make customers happy, but I’m tired of people asking for these drinks and not know what’s in them. As a barista, why are you making fellow baristas jobs more difficult? Like why?
For customers who order TikTok drinks, there is no drink on our menu called a “TikTok drink”, if you do not have a recipe for it we can not make it. No you can not play me the video, especially while you are in the drive thru. Yes the drink will be more expensive because we have to charge you for additional add ins. Things like syrups, drizzles, purée, non dairy milk and other things cost extra. So if your drink cost and extra $2-$3, don’t get mad and say we rung you up wrong, trust me, we didn’t. And if you order 5 of them for the people in your car, yes the total is going to be $25+ after tax, no matter what size you get. Also, some of your drinks will take a while to be made, especially if they’re layered drinks.
