This is also why I refuse to repeat the phrase “medicine ball”. I only call it the honey citrus mint.

I do that every time and they’re so confused, it’s funny tho since HCM is the actual name…

From what i've heard, it started out as a customer creation, nicknamed the medicine ball. Got so popular, sb added it to the official menu, but, given it's not fucking medicine, they called it the Honey Citrus Mint Tea. And created the honey blend syrup for it.

I don't know when "CDC says" memes got so popular but I'm here for it

It trended on Twitter after the CDC released new, reduced post-exposure quarantine guidance that is kinda obviously less about the science of infectious diseases and more about pandemic profiteering

It’s driving me crazy all the sick people coming in - half of my fellow coworkers have gotten sick with what we think Is omnicron- like quit coming up to us when you are sick!!!

oh my god!! my store ran out of both mint teas AND peach tranquility! when i tell you people were mad today

My store was out too! Kinda fulfilling not given out to them knowing it’s not going to do anything to help them feel better. You can make the equivalent at home without coming to spread your germs to us.

One lady came to my store and ordered it, then asked me to tell her where she can find it on the app. I said “Did you try looking up HCMT?” and she said “wait what’s it called???? it’s not medicine ball??” I think it’s so funny she genuinely did not know. Thank god she wasn’t sick, and was super kind about it but ahhh
