Any other baristas don’t drink coffee like at all& just be surviving off of pure luck🫡

Water✨️🤣 I started having heart problems when I started working at SB. Turns out I have an extreme caffeine sensitivity.

Yasss had 2 shots of expresso and felt like I was having a damn heart attack. I’ve sense learned that I can handle 1 half decaf shot if it’s extremely diluted 😂

My heart rate at work is usually 130-150bpm. Idk if it's anxiety/stress. All my tests are normal 🤷♀️

dutch bros is literally my ride or die i’ll choose a 30 minute drive to a dutch bros before ever going to a starbucks when i’m not working lmao
TwoDallas2 points1y ago
oh wow, I didn't know that they are that good. Thanks.what is your go to order.? Thanks
certifiedsnax4 points1y ago
honestly i change it up almost every time i go! They used to have a whole array of options on their menu (like a secret menu almost) but it’s since been removed from their website but you can still order the drinks that were there! You could google dutch bros secret menu and there are a ton of websites that have decent lists
I really love all of their blended rebels i’ve had there (energy drink with some syrups). I’ll also go for a caramelizer or a horchata chai with 2 shots of espresso! But i love changing it up whenever I go and i’ve never had a disappointing drink there haha

Thanks for replying. There is one that is like 30 minutes are more from me but I was thinking about trying.

Other Starbucks's or I just make my own drinks. I've gotten pretty good at re-creating flavors without an espresso machine
Professional-Lie6004 [OP]7 points1y ago
I have learned from having broken machines that most espresso drinks can be re created with cold brew 😅

I’ve been making shaken iced coffees lmao
aspiringgrandpa7 points1y ago
coffee? i brew at home. i love the coffee mate creamers (my favorite is crème brûlée rn)
other drinks, still starbucks 😭 i swear i never went before i started working here and now can barely make it through the day without an iced matcha

Summer Moon for coffee or Dutch Bros for something cold
barista-baby3 points1y ago
Summer Moon is my go-to, their iced Blue Moon lattes are worth the drive
poetixvirgo3 points1y ago
Agreed but my weakness is the matcha moon latte, so delicious
barista-baby1 points1y ago
BIG fan of matcha, definitely will be trying that soon

local places! i don’t have a dunkin near me, and the coffee house is same distance as the sbux
Mea-fae_Owl734 points1y ago
At the local mom and pop establishment
jbohman9873 points1y ago
Local shop. Has way better coffee tbh and cheaper prices.

I have a local place called Capanna and they have the yummiest lavender lattes 🤤🤤🤤
Professional-Lie6004 [OP]5 points1y ago
Lavender lattes are my favorite! But my favorite place to get them is at the Renaissance Festival when it open.
Nearby-Philosophy-253 points1y ago
Never been to a Ren faire! I’ve always wanted to go!
yungfroggie2 points1y ago
i love making tea, esp matcha, so i guess i prefer boba shops 😌 kung fu tea is worth a try and they’re all individually owned !!
LtPixelSky2 points1y ago
Peets Ice Matcha brown sugar Latte. They make it better
Necessary_Low9392 points1y ago
Dunkin or tous les jours.

There aren’t many other shops near me so I pretty much either get Starbucks or use grounds from my mark out and make it myself
PerspectiveCapable982 points1y ago
No where 💀

Dazbog is amazingly consistent and prices are better than most for what you get.

My house lol. I usually only get coffee when I am working
charamander_1 points1y ago
local coffee shop or brew at home. our local shop has roughly the same prices as starbucks but with much better quality and care put into the coffee making process
oftbkk1 points1y ago
chain wise. dunkin only for their iced coffee otherwise there’s a local coffee shop by me that’s hands down the best thing ever
thechamelioncircuit1 points1y ago
There’s a nice little coffee shop in my neighborhood that has incredible pastries
[deleted]1 points1y ago
I live in OC and there’s a chain here called Bodhi Leaf I really like 😊
LycaenopsPictus1 points1y ago
Boomtown (Houston) when I'm down in the city! Otherwise coldbrew or hot coffee from home. Minuti if there's one close, the shakeratos are top tier.
