What are your "crazy drink" stories?(self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by bumpinpumpkin468
I've seen a lot of crazy and gross custom drinks that customers have ordered on this sub and on r/starbucks, but I've always wondered how crazy a custom drink can get. I've always wondered if a customer has asked for a drink that is nearly impossible to make or is nearly inconsumable. I'd love to hear your stories. The craziest drink I've ever had to make was an excessive Trad Misto with a butt load of raw sugar, vanilla bean powder, and syrups (it's hard to describe here, but I have a picture of it on my account.)

We had these regulars come in every night, they would order a venti iced toasted white mocha with 15 pumps of toasted white mocha and carmel crunch at the bottom. 5 shots of espresso 10 pumps of frap roast, nonfat milk (you know health) and then extra whipped cream and more carmel crunch's on top. And they didn't want it stirred. Then they would ask for a short cup of carmel crunch. At one point we ran out of carmel crunch so we haven't seen them for a while. Everytime I made it it made me want to gag

Grande black tea 16 classic 12 Splenda and heavy cream was the worst drink I made. I felt bad giving it to her because... what even is jt.
We also have this guy regularly order a venti mocha with 10 mocha, and he wants dried strawberries and a LOT of espresso beans on the whipped cream
And more recently I had someone ask me for a venti iced americano with no water sub chocolate milk and one less shot. And I was like so you want a mocha? And she was like no I don’t want mocha syrup I want it made with chocolate milk

How did you make it with chocolate milk if I can ask?

Yeah we just made her an iced mocha no whip 😂 I kept having to explain that it’s the same thing and we don’t have a carton of chocolate milk.
Not sure if she was trying a “hack” to get a cheaper mocha but we made and charged for a mocha

this lady always orders 3 of these: 12 shots of espresso 12 pumps white mocha 12 pumps peppermint in a venti cup, no milk or anything and she literally takes out a ruler and measures the space from the top of the cup to the liquid o make sure all 12 shots are in it

This one guy comes to our store pretty much everyday and orders four (4) trenta mango dragonfruit refreshers, no ice, no inclusions, with 20 pumps of classic each. And one venti pink drink with vsccf. All with Uber eats stickers as stoppers. One of my shifts says he actually drinks them 🤢🤢🤢
