Any recommendations for a drink without coffee or tea thats not on the menu? Anything you fellow baristas came up with and enjoy?(self.starbucksbaristas)

The double blended defense up juice is really good, especially with strawberry puree

I know you said no tea, but if you’re looking for something with no caffeine, an iced peach tea latte (basically a london fog: brew 2 peach tranquility in a short cup, shake with preferred milk, ice, and vanilla syrup)

One of my coworkers is strictly no caffeine for health reasons. He makes some crazy ass drinks (mostly fraps), but they are good.
This is one he made a while back and I tried it, I still get it occasionally: A strawberry creme frap with almond milk/no whip, a packet of the blueberries, dried strawberries (personal preference-i do 1 scoop), and bananas when we have them (it’s good w/o them too). I also like to do just 1-2 pumps of the creme base depending on size

Without coffee? I don’t know any baristas that go for non-caffeinated anything

By coffee, do you mean caffeine in general? Or is espresso okay? Because I’m obsessed with doing a venti frap with 2 pumps of frap roast, half soy and half oat, 3 shots of blonde, 4-5 (half) caramel pumps, 2-2.5 scoops of vanilla bean, 2 crème pumps, 2 coffee pumps, 3 salt packets, and super light ice (I like it to be more like a watery cold latte than a thick icy frap). I then throw it in a trenta cup and depending on the day, sometimes I’ll top it with some more soy+oat, or I’ll top it with another shot or two of blonde. It’s the most unhealthy thing on the planet (the sugar and the caffeine is super addicting) and after all the mods, it’s expensive and annoying for baristas to make. But since I’m a barista I just make it myself just how I like it, and use my partner numbers for the free drink/discount.

Blended strawberry lemonade, with or without raspberry syrup!
Caramel apple spice (used to be on-menu, but not anymore)
White hot chocolate with 1-2 pumps of cinnamon dolce, when cinn dolce is back in stock lol
Also, chocolate milk with cold foam, add raspberry syrup into the cold foam. It makes a raspberry mocha without caffeine*
*Technically chocolate has a tiny bit of caffeine but that's up to you if it counts or not
