Pink(Brown) Drink (self.starbucksbaristas)

submitted by rohammer32

The other day I had someone order a Pink Drink with a shot of espresso shaken in. It was the deepest ugliest brown color; it looked like the garbage juice at the bottom of our big garbage cans😭 Obviously this isn't common, but have any of you had someone order this??

The other day someone ordered a pink drink with matcha and strawberry purée. The first time I accidentally forgot the purée so it was a nice green color, but she noticed and asked if I added the strawberry purée. Then when I remade it it was the grossest garbage brown color, and the customer told me it looked gross??

These 3 are all good on their own so customers just think mixing it all together will look and taste 3x as good🤣

I cannot imagine what she was expecting, it's basic color theory lol

Folks have been ordering iced matcha lattes with strawberry pieces shaken in and it looks like straight fucking swamp water

What is the damn deal with matcha I tried it and thought it tasted like my lawnmower clippings

I’m a barista and I can say that this drink is actually really good, I’ve been ordering it for a few years now. I know it looks kind of goddd but it is similar to strawberry matcha lattes in boba shops. Pretty good. Tastes better with the purée on the bottom of the cup

I mean, I don't like the matcha or the dried strawberry so I've not tried it - I just know that visually it looks like swamp water, haha.

eightiesfilmdust 1 points 1y ago

Dried strawberry as in strawberry inclusions? Well that doesn’t sound very good

wafflehousedumpster 2 points 1y ago

Yeah folks have been ordering the iced matcha lattes with inclusions. They look nasty.

No, but iced matcha with chai added looks like disgusting brown tinged swamp water.

rohammer32 [OP] 5 points 1y ago

Customers want to get as near as they can to the color of coffee without drinking coffee🤣

I’ve had someone order a strawberry açaí lemonade with matcha and a shot and I wanted to barf

occasionally this lady comes in and orders a pink drink with matcha. One time a guy ordered a peach green tea lemonade with one shot and surprisingly it tastes good and doesn't look gross

rohammer32 [OP] 1 points 1y ago

Tbh I'm gonna try the peach green tea thing it's just a spicy version of a dirty chai

i think ive had like 3 different ppl order this. we also had a guy get THREE shots of espresso in his green ice tea 🤢 a lot of ppl order vsccf on refreshers with lemonade and ive had a few get shots (sometimes w/ strawberry puree too) in their matcha which makes it the most awful brown color 😭
