nightkat89 5 points 2y ago
.90 a shot times the amount of shots. Yep.
lily-amber 2 points 2y ago
๐Ÿ˜ฑ Hope it was worth it!
echtrae_94 43 points 2y ago
Did that take like 10 minutes to pull?
youdontsayeh01 41 points 2y ago
I had a customer ask for a enormous amount of shots like that first, it was for baking. I ended up talking them into buying some dark roast via instead! It works better than using dead shots!
zzid2d21 3 points 2y ago
I agree! Or just buy some ground espresso ($13 a bag) and put it in a drip coffee maker with less water than normal. Signed a former barista!
ladycali87 37 points 2y ago
Probably used for baking. We had a lady do this before.
TemplarSensei7 3 points 2y ago
Iโ€™d be curious about what for, but that made much more sense.

But seriously, if for drinking, either the heart gets over-excited or he moves faster than light.
ladycali87 3 points 2y ago
Tiramisu is one that I know of, bunch of espresso cakes and such.
Tiny_Independence675 2 points 2y ago
Omg I get it now. I was genuinely SO CONCERNED for that person.

There's a limit on orders that they must be able to fit inside a valid cup. As an example, a customer could order 26 shots in a venti iced cup, but not 30 in a trenta. You can't fill an ineligible (a larger size than we serve) cup per company policy.

Also per company policy, make it right, partner.

What would you even do in this situation?
Not_uravg_bear 18 points 2y ago
Refuse the order
not-your-avg-duck 5 points 2y ago
Great name! I, like you, am not so average.
59625962 5 points 2y ago
This is why my store has a limit on shots !
looker009 5 points 2y ago
RIP, if i were to drink that much i would probably die.
Fire_Eternity 5 points 2y ago
That's insane. I'm a caffeine freak and Goddamn I'd die with that much caffeine and sugar.

Imagine waisting your fucking time at bar, while there's a line of a million tickets to press the espresso button 40 fucking times. ๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ’€๐Ÿ’€
EmpressDaniQ 3 points 2y ago
Isnโ€™t that over the legal limit???
TemplarSensei7 1 points 2y ago
There isnโ€™t one, but there should be.
pintsizetnt 2 points 2y ago

Is someone trying to give themselves a heart attack?
colonade17 1 points 2y ago
Standard is that your drink must fit in your cup. So even if you got shots over ice in a trenta cup you should only get 30 shots at most per drink.
Gbatman7508 1 points 2y ago
How many cups does 52 shots fill up?
Nos162 2 points 2y ago
Three venti hot

Avuneon 3 points 2y ago
That math doesn't add up
Nos162 1 points 2y ago
Thank you. I've been up too long
tooshy2usemyrealname 1 points 2y ago
Itโ€™s the fact this was ordered 20 apart from each other
Capital-Cap6260 1 points 2y ago
