HAHAHA you don’t

1. pour into shaker

2. begin shaking

3. somehow the lid flys off and you get it all over you

4. pour into shaker again

5. repeat

🥲

Sequencing is really only frappuccinos and hot bar since they do part of the work for you ie autosteaming, pulling shots & blending

Going back a few years they used to tell you to stop before adding the ice to the shaker to start your next drink. Then they realized how silly that was I think and just said to finish the shaken drink all at once. And that was the last time they made a change that actually made things easier on partners

try and prep one before you pour the other first one and then pour the first one then shake the second but it’s it’s peak there literally no chance of sequencing teas

here is what u do. number one thing that’s helped me is. just get a good solid grip on shaker. shake with one hand, with ur free spare hand, put away lemonade, refresher box, etc and grab the next one and get it ready

If I'm on drive thru bar I'll usually listen ahead for a esspresso or Frappuccino to start before a tea. So if a black tea is ordered first and I hear an iced white mocha ordered right after ill start the white mocha since I'll be able to make that before my shots are done pulling. But as far as sequencing just refreshers/teas, really just being fast at making each individual one is all the advice I have.

My store is way slower than a normal bux but if if say there's 5 refreshers/teas to make, I grab 5 shakers, pour all the liquid, add all ice, then shake em all- bam, 5 refreshers ready to go... Lol

This may not be applicable at a normal store though?

The best you could do is try double batching with the shakers

There really is no right way to sequence those tbh. Because you ALWAYS have to have your hands on doing something with them. At least you tried to learn tho :) you learn to do them super fast as you go. Or you'll just be like me and learn the cheap ways without the shaker and then hate life when the district or regional manager comes by.

The most i can think of is if there are a bunch of refreshers specifically you can scoop the inclusions into the cups just to have them ready and help i.d. the drinks.

Honestly, if you have multiple refreshers use the black lines on the cups to measure the juice/ water for each one that you have to make, before you pour it in the shaker to shake it. It saves a little time. Kinda like this:

1. Refresher base / water or lemonade measured in cup (for multiple cups)
2. Pour one cup into shaker
3. Add ice / fruit
4. Shake / finish
5. Repeat 2-4 until all refreshers are done.

You have to start and finish teas/refreshers so you can’t sequence them technically

a good way is to put all the ingredients in the shaker EXCEPT ice. so imagining this is drink 2: finish drink 1, start drink 3, go back and add ice-shake(finishing drink 2). finish drink 3.

Say if you got a 3 tall green tea:
Make a trenta with light ice and shaken. Pour all to the first line then add ice.

I was always taught to put everything in the shaker, but the ice. Then start your next drink, come back, add ice, and shake.

If I’m lucky to have two shakers I’ll prep them at the same time. Then shake one, pour, rinse. Pick up the other, shake, pour, rinse. Lid both of them when finished. Also ..... batching 🤭 lol

typically i put everything in, shake it, put it down, do something else till i can step away from it, then go back to the shaker and pour it in the cup etc etc

Depending on my DTO during peak, I’ll ask them to shake it and finish after I put the drink in the shaker and start on the next. But yeah. No real sequence. You just gotta move fast. 🥺

Making refreshers and teas is the best. You get to aggressively shake the hell out of it and it just makes everything so much better. And then pouring it into the cup while using the lid so people see how much drink they have. Stops them from bitching about ice.

Sequencing is kinda dumb in my opinion. You wanna know how many times I’ve started pulling shots first? Thousands. You wanna know how many times it has made any difference at all? None. Figure out what works best for you and do it that way. Aside from some real assholes who should be ignored anyway no one cares as long as it’s going at a good pace. This company will always be pressuring us to go faster so it’s best to ignore that as well. You know who decides how fast we go? We do. We’re the ones doing the work.
