When over ordering pays off😜🤌
WorthPrinciple7049 [OP]46 points2y ago
We have been out for a long time, but our neighboring town’s store still has it. Along with other things we’ve been out of. We’re all wondering how this can be possible. Our customers keep being upset that they have stuff and we don’t, but how. How?!
snarky_fireball2124 points2y ago
We do. We had a few boxes in backstock before this whole ordeal started. We also have all the syrups. Just no peach, guava, or bhr
clumsycalico38 points2y ago
We’re down to vanilla, sf vanilla, caramel, peppermint, classic, and brown sugar. It’s a nightmare.
snarky_fireball217 points2y ago
I feel so bad for you. I work at a license store so if we don't have something, we could be shut down. So we have a healthy stock of stuff. We also don't go through as much as you do.
I honestly wish you the best of luck. You, my dear, are a hero.
clumsycalico8 points2y ago
Thanks for your support!! I was taking drive through orders most of the morning and I felt so bad, half the time I was like “let me just tell you what I do have” 😣😣
snarky_fireball218 points2y ago
And of course everyone is getting mad because that's not what they want.
Cilantro0836 points2y ago
Dude we only have both vanillas, both caramels, both mochas, brown sugar and classic 🥲✌🏽
seanoregano2 points2y ago
Both mochas?
Cilantro0831 points2y ago
Mocha and white mocha
jy_mee1 points2y ago
You have both caramels!? We've been out of dark caramel for weeks! We've been buying out all the ghirardelli at Costco and Smart & Final 😬
mysterious_yams3 points2y ago
Same, but we ran out of peppermint last week
OrganizationGreen1711 points2y ago
lucky, we’re out of toffee nut and i’m so sad abt it :(
tenthwalker16 points2y ago
I think 8 or 10 bags of jade citrus mint will yield the same as the regular bags for a pitcher
ElijahLordoftheWoods4 points2y ago
Is jade citrus 100% the same tea? Or just similar flavor profile? I’m tempted to do this but I know if it’s not exactly the same there’s a shift that will object.
tenthwalker3 points2y ago
I was told by a 12 year shift that it is
chichichja873 points2y ago
we’ve been doing 10
tenthwalker6 points2y ago
One of our shifts put the right number together in a pastry bag which visually was somewhere between 8-10 and prepped a bunch of those so we could quickly make pitchers but I admittedly didn't pay too close of attention to the exact number, I just churned out the pitchers we needed
monzoink1 points2y ago
Doesn't 10 seem a little small when you put it all together?? It just seems like not that much tea versus the giant bag
rwag12 points2y ago
we use 8 bags!
samwise1221 points2y ago
An iced green tea bag is 3oz of tea, and a hot jade citrus bag is 0.06oz each, so you’d need at least 50 bags to replicate the amount. Since there’s I think 100 in a box of the hot tea, it doesn’t seem that effective?
chichichja871 points2y ago
I’m just doing what I was told to do. Plus it tastes right when it’s done.
monzoink1 points2y ago
Yeah... I don't think people should be brewing iced green tea with jade...
Voxxyvoo1 points2y ago
The iced green tea is literally mass jcm
monzoink1 points2y ago
Except if nobody knows how much tea you should actually use it doesn’t sound like very good quality
xXTimbloXx12 points2y ago
Nope. My stores out of green tea, bhr, peach, guava, all the syrups except SF vanilla, vanilla, caramel, classic, and brown sugar. We finally got stoppers and plastic straws somehow?? It’s whatever at this point. People are mostly understanding at my store but every so often we get a complaint.
chichichja876 points2y ago
no, but we’ve been told to use bundles of hot tea packets to make the iced green tea
sunflowercupcakee8 points2y ago
You guys have hot tea bags? We only have hot chai tea bags now.
handlesareokiguess3 points2y ago
We haven’t had chai since Christmas 😪😪
chichichja872 points2y ago
We have most of our hot tea bags, except for peach tranquility and i think one other that people almost never get and i forget the name of lol.
darkwolf5231 points2y ago
If only my store was smart in doing this lul
happybowtiethefirst6 points2y ago
Nope but we have most other things cause we are a tarbucks
kittyishhh5 points2y ago
My store is still good on teas but are down to about 4-5 different syrups

mirbellaof3 points2y ago

mini_unknown_error3 points2y ago
We're out of almost all of our syrups, we don't have peach juice either but we do have green tea
ncart3 points2y ago
No, and I’ve been missing it, so I made myself an iced Jade Citrus with Lemonade today
Babyslothh142 points2y ago
I found a cafe in target that had it. I was craving it so bad so i paid for it. I miss the green tea 🥺
Ok-Mix-51292 points2y ago
Not in Ohio
existenaliens2 points2y ago
Not at our store, unfortunately. When I have visited other stores, they all seem to have it! No fair. >_<
darkwolf5231 points2y ago
Nah
[deleted]1 points2y ago

darkwolf5231 points2y ago
Same tbh. Guava and peach are apparently discontinued, that’s what my manager said. I don’t think they’re discontinued since they’re the most teas being asked for
hopelovepeace331 points2y ago
No we’ve been out for about a months & a half.
bazzyzazzy1 points2y ago
We’re out of green tea, hazelnut, toffeenut, guava, peach, raspberry, cinnamon dolce…. Yeah the list goes on. I’m sure I’m missing something lol
OrganizationGreen1711 points2y ago
we were able to get some boxes from a licensed store near us but we haven’t got any actual shipments
renjaminbutton1 points2y ago
We haven’t had green tea in over a month now I think.
kikuuq1 points2y ago
Nope :/ missing hazelnut and toffeenut syrups as well ):
wbove1 points2y ago
Kroger Green Tea 😏
joviante1 points2y ago
does off brand kroger green tea count
WorthPrinciple7049 [OP]1 points2y ago
Are you really using that? I know there are certain things we can and can’t substitute.
joviante2 points2y ago
yeah… kroger green tea and amazon hazelnut + toffee nut
Kalhm1 points2y ago
We just ran out
juiceyluicy1 points2y ago
My store is still receiving orders of it to my knowledge. But we also only brew 3 a day anyway so we wouldn’t be low on it even if we hadn’t got it in a month.
WorthPrinciple7049 [OP]1 points2y ago
😳🤪
juju4831 points2y ago
We do ✋
Canadiansbux1 points2y ago
I'm in Canada every week is something new. We are out of caramel for the last 2 weeks. We have not run out of teas. Last week was Mango base. The week before was vanilla syrup and vanilla bean powder.
dayahorne1 points2y ago
We just ran out a few days ago, now we're out of lemonade.
wendywendy51 points2y ago
No it’s officially discontinued
darkwolf5232 points2y ago
Was green tea actually discontinued? I don’t remember seeing that in any weekly updates
WorthPrinciple7049 [OP]1 points2y ago
Green tea is? Where was the communication about that?
smoolbeean1 points2y ago
lmao yall got brown sugar?!?
zambiers1 points2y ago
Nope. We still don’t have peach and guava either 🤷🏻♀️
savanahbb1 points2y ago

lilkiosk1 points2y ago
No :( but a tarbucks somewhat near me does so I have gone there to get my fix, but it’s only a matter of time
Vegetable_Loan21561 points2y ago
Nope
Broccoli_In_The_Butt1 points2y ago
No and one of my favorite customers always drinks green tea :(
darkwolf5232 points2y ago
Same
elainafromthemoon1 points2y ago
Yes but not much
NervosaNervous1 points2y ago
We ran out at the end of May. We’re also almost out of Peppermint and Pineapple Ginger Syrup. Our last bottle of peppermint syrup goes out today.
decemberisforcynics1 points2y ago
I just flew up to Canada and nearly cried when I was able to get a guava green tea 😂
Mochithecatfoodthief1 points2y ago

Adventurous-Path-9761 points2y ago
Nope lol
sneaky_capybara0 points2y ago
a in the town over has green tea! i know because a few customers have made it their life goal to make sure i know. example, a couple days ago:
me: “hi! what could i get for you today?” lady: “can i have a trenta iced green tea, no sweetener.” me: “i’m sorry, unfortunately we’re all out of green tea and won’t be getting it in for a few months. can i offer you something else?” lady: in a passive aggressive tone “that’s weird the store in **next town over** still has green tea. uh… i’m all set then”
like sheesh, i’m sorry they just happened to have a supply as the shortages started.
WorthPrinciple7049 [OP]1 points2y ago
Same. Except we just heard from their manager that they don’t have it. So why are people all saying they do?!
kaefeen0 points2y ago
nope, but heard a store nearby is brewing emperor’s cloud
