LatteCalories.com Drink Names Update (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by imathrowayslc
Again I want to thank everyone for their amazing feedback as I have been greatly enjoying working on my Starbucks calorie calculator.

Today I have added some additional functionality that I hope isn't too controversial :). I have added the ability to suggest names for drink combinations, as well as for people to vote on the names of drinks.

I am a little wary of this, as we all know the pain of being asked to make some random drink name we have never heard of, however I am hoping that the combination of the drink name with the ordering instructions may be helpful.

This functionality does have an approval process, so every name that is suggested needs to be approved by a human (me for now) before it will even show on the site. I have also added the ability for the administrator (again me) to mark a drink name as canonical. This would be the Starbucks approved name of a drink from the menu. When a drink has an official name, suggestions for names will not appear, and the official drink name will replace the order instructions. I am slowly working my way adding all the official names, so expect these all to be in place by the end of next week.

As always I look forward to your feedback, and if you like the calculator, enjoy!

I've been having fun with your app on Starbucks Secret Recipes on FB. One Frappuccino recently shared was over 1600 calories according to LatteCalories.com!

Thank you! I now am terrified of some of the drinks I make. Here are two from the shift that just ended:

1244 Calorie Pink Drink

549 Calories Grande Iced Coffee

These are drinks I either rang in, or made on bar today. I don't know how people can drink some of these things.

I don’t either, my personal drinks are so minimal! I’ll explore your new features and show that off on FB, why not make it easier for customers and us to communicate? As long as the company refuses to arrange customizations in a helpful order on the sticker
