How tf are we supposed to make it blonde and decaf??😭☠️
New_Consequence_5184 38 points 1y ago
The default drink is blonde, so decaf is the modification you follow. It does the same if you put in a decaf brown sugar oatmilk shaken espresso
YorkTownBratty -30 points 1y ago
Right.. but if I get a sticker that is modified to decaf it won’t have blonde added underneath it. It usually only says decaf.
NervosaNervous 25 points 1y ago
If the default recipe for the drink calls for blonde espresso, it will still say blonde even if decaf is selected.
YorkTownBratty -13 points 1y ago
It swear I have never gotten that added onto a sticker. Wth maybe I’m going nuts lmao

Idk why you're being downvoted, that just means people at your store know how to ring things in correctly 🤷‍♀️
YorkTownBratty 1 points 1y ago
Yeah I have no clue either.

STRAWBERRY DRIZZLE😀
Cjuytsootgg 10 points 1y ago
Strawberry purée
hollowsockets 6 points 1y ago
I didn't know that was a thing tbh
hailvy 10 points 1y ago
It was brought out with the strawberry funnel cake frappuccino
hollowsockets 4 points 1y ago
Hm our store must be all out of it. We would just put strawberry puree on top
hailvy 16 points 1y ago
It’s the same thing! It just goes in a drizzle bottle instead of the box, but my store doesn’t make drizzle bottles bc of how infrequently it’s ordered

"decaf" "warm" "lots of sugar" is this a literal child?
acertwo 26 points 1y ago
A triple shot?! How will I be able to taste any of the sugar?!
fookyall 15 points 1y ago
Betch wtf. I don’t know what makes me angrier, the blonde decaf or “warm” for the temp. Gtfo
Jeb1230 1 points 1y ago
Def the blonde decaf for me
LatterRooster 1 points 1y ago
Exactly, Not possible
hailvy 10 points 1y ago

Not supposed to put cold foam on hot drinks
darkwolf523 4 points 1y ago
Too bad. Starbucks said in a weekly update that baristas have to follow what the customers want on their drink. So if they want cold foam on hot drinks, then you got to do it
philosopher_cat_lady 2 points 1y ago
Yeah, I'm not sure about that particular issue, myself. I've been told by a shift supervisor that it's not safe to put cold foam on a hot drink.
darkwolf523 1 points 1y ago
Probably but that’s what corporate wants us to do. Whatever customers want, as long as we charged them for it, then they shall get it
BothWeb1004 3 points 1y ago
Maybe they shouldn't have made a hot drink with cold foam on the menu, then. 😄
899thKorok 2 points 1y ago
what drink is that?
BothWeb1004 2 points 1y ago
The Irish Cream Americano. 2019 in Canada, at least. It's an Americano with Irish Cream syrup and cold foam on top. I believe they changed it to a misto last year, but partners are still having hot drinks with cold foam at my store.
Phoenix-1973 1 points 1y ago
Cold foam on hot drinks is the shit tho. Caramel cold foam on a spiced apple yes please
philosopher_cat_lady 1 points 1y ago
So I've heard that the heat will cause the cold foam to curdle.
BothWeb1004 2 points 1y ago
It doesn't. I drink an americano with 1 tbs of heavy cream and there's no curdling. I also drink an americano with cold foam once a week, and it doesn't curdle. Citrus and acid cause curdling, I.E. milk in passion tea, coconut milk in literally all of the refreshers curdles immediately, but it's a standard drink. Milk doesn't curdle from heat.
philosopher_cat_lady 2 points 1y ago
You're not the first person on Reddit to mention that curdling is not a safety issue. Curds is a food. It's just this thing that a few of the baristas at my store act like is a big deal. If it was such a big deal, Starbucks would put it in a safety training module. They don't. But I find it easier to pretend that it's a big deal rather than have those baristas tell me I'm endangering people and risking our store getting in trouble for making a customer sick.
