This was in my last set of drinks before I went home... (self.starbucksbaristas)

Got this drink as one of the last drinks of the night. This is just the syrups.

Just.The.Syrups.

“Light ice” as if ice would have fit in there.
pbandjxrdan [OP] 74 points 1y ago
LMAO my exact thought! Especially with cold foam. This person had two like this and then a frap with some complicated stuff too smh
Minkybun 180 points 1y ago
I swear people lie to themselves that they love coffee when they in fact are married to sugar.
pbandjxrdan [OP] 81 points 1y ago
the amount of drinks i’ve made where people added like 4+ pumps of 3 different syrups is crazy… i thought my oatmilk blonde vanilla latte was complicated 😳
Minkybun 32 points 1y ago
I wonder if their taste buds has gone stale in order to feel the sugary death.

covid has these hoes trippin
howdudo 16 points 1y ago
i wonder that too like why all the extra steps just eat sugar packets and drink syrups if thats what you like?
deprimada 11 points 1y ago
Its probably covid

reminds me of the woman who would get a half shot of espresso in her venti iced white mocha with 12 pumps WM, 6 pumps caramel, 5 pumps vanilla and extra CD and extra VSCCF…and would gush to us about she loves having her morning “coffee”
Minkybun 24 points 1y ago
Yum death in a cup ♡♡
I once had a lady order a coffee with 4 splenda, extra stream cream okay sure, with 30 pumps of sugar free vanilla...
SpN09_mother_ofpigs 17 points 1y ago
30... Damn I think I would have said " I'm sorry ma'am.. we only have 25 pumps left..😐"

When they add classic pumps to the Strawberry Acai 🤢
mrcupcake18 3 points 1y ago
Omg yes! I know this is not as bad as this but when they add stevias to an already sugary drink like a Frappuccino. I mean like why? Lol
luvduvbunny 48 points 1y ago
What’s the point of getting multiple pumps of syrups? Not like you’ll taste the white mocha, caravel brûlée, and caramel more with over 30 pumps of the sugars
pbandjxrdan [OP] 14 points 1y ago
yeah you’ll literally just taste sugar LMAO like there was barely any coffee in there between the syrups and the cold foam
snowflakenecklace 45 points 1y ago
fun fact! that's aprox. 359 grams of sugar. just the syrups.

(19g/4 pumps of vanilla/caramel, 11g/1 pump of white mocha/caramel brulee.)

oh my GOD
ScrodumbSacks 25 points 1y ago
As someone who *sometimes* gets 3 pumps of toffee nut (out of stock for like a year), hazelnut, or vanilla in my venti dark roast……I know it adds $0.50 to my cup.

What does something like this drink even cost someone?
snowflakenecklace 19 points 1y ago
base drink is probably about 6, the vanilla is included. caramel might be too? if not another 50 cents. white mocha/caramel brulee would be an extra 60 cents, or $1.20. they count syrups weird (sometimes cost is included, sometimes not) so i'm not entirely sure. the foam is $1. drizzle is another 60 cents, and each shot is 90 cents, for a total of $2.70 for shots. total cost is probably around $10.
ScrodumbSacks 22 points 1y ago
While I appreciate the super detailed reply…I don’t appreciate your customer. And $10 for a non-alcoholic drink is absurd.
snowflakenecklace 7 points 1y ago
it's something i think about a lot. because starbucks charges for everything, that stuff adds up quickly, and so many people have zero issues getting that stuff often.
ScrodumbSacks 3 points 1y ago
High cost + high sugar intake = madness.
Necessary_Low939 12 points 1y ago
Someone send that person to a mental hospital.
jamosarous 11 points 1y ago
I always mention it when I sew stuff like this but we had a regular who got a 24 pump venti ice chai.
JJ_Pause 2 points 1y ago
Even the standard chai pumps are too sweet for me, can't even imagine that
prettypinkbunnies 9 points 1y ago
I’m not a Starbucks employee but I work in the service industry…

I would be so embarrassed to order this drink! I feel bad whenever I order something with more than 2 lines on the ticket. Like how do y’all even call this out 😭 I’d be mortified to go grab my drink because it’s so entitled
ichxnel 7 points 1y ago
Do you want coffee in your sugar? 🤢
agibb55 6 points 1y ago
People suck
bobduncansdick 4 points 1y ago
also, after the shots of espresso there’s gonna be almost no cold brew, and those syrups are gonna mix with the espresso and be thick as fuck.
habitzouis 4 points 1y ago
This drink would cost $11.77 at my store.

Also 12 is the max amount of syrup you can add.
starrrrrfruittttt 4 points 1y ago
I feel like it’s sad that I can identify each layer
Interesting-Shame126 3 points 1y ago
also working for Starbucks I can vouch for the disgusting amount of syrups and foam added to drinks. truly a travesty
Interesting-Shame126 3 points 1y ago
what a sick fuck 🤢
iqueefkief 2 points 1y ago
we truly are death slingers working for a place like this, aren’t we?

i’m updating my title

Gotta have my Starbies coffee tehehe! 🥰🤪

Meanwhile we are all sat here like… 👁👄👁
PassengerOk6227 1 points 1y ago
People who are sugar monsters always ask me what my favorite drink is. I always mess with their thought process because I only drink black coffee and they’re like “well you aren’t helpful”

Do y’all stir and/or mix the syrup before you queue the shots for thick drinks like that or do y’all just put the shots on top and do your process?
pbandjxrdan [OP] 1 points 1y ago
I pulled the shots and then mixed it in with the syrups. :D it def looked gross after making though. nothing like coffee
