Do you actually shake your 'shaken drinks'?(self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by Chemical-Less
Just making a poll bc I've seen people have a lot of different opinions/ methods of making the shaken drinks and am curious to see what the majority have to say :)
There could be 50 cars lined up in the drive-thur and I still would shake each refresher. I don’t get paid more if I work faster. 🤷🏽♀️

Its shaken. Not twirled or swirled. There are no other methods than the official one of shaking it. The better question is do you shake it the full 10 times?

I only shake 9.5 times.
Kidding but I always shake my refreshers probably 20 times because it lets me get my frustrations out without losing my job lmao

I shake the refreshers in their cup. I put the shaker lid on the grande and venti drinks.

I think the only time I or my other coworkers would legit not give a shit about shaking is when someone orders like 10 refreshers in the drive thru (which has happened)

I don't shake drinks without ice because like...it just doesn't work? It doesn't shake right.

I generally always shake my drinks but if it’s one that is added at the window/changed then I won’t in spite of time and/or business

My managers care more about speed than drink quality. So if I’m on dtb, it’s more likely that I’ll get yelled at for being slow than I would be for not shaking a drink

shake. it. it’s fun. it’s simple, and gives you the same taste and result everytime. YOU HAVE TO SHAKE YOUR COCONUT MILK or else it seperates instantly. not only that, you distribute the cold ice all throughout the drink, so that you don’t get warm drink at the bottom. the refresher base can be sitting out for however long, and especially freshly brewed iced tea, which is still warm after the cold water and ice scoop.
