Oatmeal is endless opportunity(self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by evaporatedristretto
I've often subbed water for blonde roast in oatmeal, and it's gotten me to think - there is \*a lot\* of potential with oatmeal. You can steam up some almond milk or soy and have yourself a good time, even traditional milk. Maybe swap out some brown sugar for a syrup like hazelnut or vanilla. Throw in some freeze dried fruit? You can bet on it.
And it's vegan, as well as being easily custom tailored to dietary preferences. Don't want sugar? Hell, maybe sugar free vanilla is good. I don't judge. Anything you add can just be marked out as a tall steamed milk. Sprinkle some cinnamon in that bad boy, toss in some java chips, whip up some oatmilk for oatception? Endless opportunity.

We were absolutely dead one night. We spent about an hour trying to make an oatmeal latte since everyone would call the Honey Oat milk Latte an oatmeal latte.
Steamed soy, 2 blonde shots, one pump of vanilla, brown sugar, and dried nuts is what we found tasted best. Not great but more than two bites were able to be swallowed haha

I bring a little bowl of homemade peaches and cream for mine. Just some chopped canned peaches with a little heavy cream, vanilla and cinnamon in a tiny Tupperware bowl. I order the classic oatmeal made with almond milk and add the brown sugar, nuts and my peaches.

Also, adding extra blueberries does not charge more!!! Add a couple extra blueberry packets & have a snack for later!

Where are you that oat milk is a thing at Starbucks? Or has it been rolled out Nationally in the US and I just haven’t noticed (former barista)

It’s supposed to be coming out this spring, at least for the SW United States (Current Barista)
