I try not to judge people's orders but some just genuinely have me concerned. Today I made someone a venti iced Chai with brown sugar syrup, 2 pumps vanilla, and sub sweet cream for milk

Sunday I made someone a Grande Iced Latte w/ 12 pump White Chocolate 12 pump raspberry, 6 pump vanilla added whip. I’m starting to realize that Starbucks is just as bad as a drug dealer. Sugar highs are just as addictive as cocaine highs. It’s just another form of a legal drug and we are the unknowing enablers. 😞

we have someone get a venti chai with 12 pumps of chai and extra whip, but don’t worry, she gets nonfat milk

Having sweet cream or heavy whipping cream is so disgusting. It’s so thick and not supposed to be consumed as the “milk” for a coffee. It grosses me out so bad … I hate where people get so many pumps of syrup too, sometimes when people ask for a high number or pumps I purposely put less. They don’t need all that sugar, yuck… Americans don’t even like coffee anymore just a sugar high and a fast heartbeat along with it.

I do about a tablespoon of heavy cream in my trenta cold crew every day. I don't mind people getting a splash, but whole iced lattes made with heavy cream make me gag.

Hey you can check with your manager, sweet cream is never supposed to be used to make a drink out of though.

Oh wow, I had no idea...I'll have to check with them. This isn't thr first time either. Someone asked for a white Mocha with no milk and only sweet cream before too.....

Yeah we gotta take the power back and get those small victories when we can say no and point to policy 🤣

Really?? I’m gonna see what I can do. A grade heavy cream latte with no syrups is 821 calories ALONE!

I don't know how these orders happen. 😭 to me its customization gone wrong. That's so much more than would typically go in a grande!

I have a semi-regular who orders a Tall Flat White w/ 15 Splenda. 15! The other day she watched me to make sure I used 15 packets. Then she tasted it at hand-off and asked the other barista for 4 more Splenda.
