“can i get a grande cup of water, with some 2% milk “ and im just flabbergasted at first double checking to make sure they actually want that. then they proceed to go “with 12 pumps of raspberry, a splash of mango dragonfruit base, with the fruit pieces on top and can you blend it and yeah no ice in a venti cup”


5 mins before close 🫠 i just

i was petty and put it as a custom tea

I’d have rung it up as a refresher at that point lol what the heck is that 😂
Perfect-Leadership58 60 points 11m ago
wouldn’t a water with refresher base be.. a refresher??? that’s what i would’ve charged them as bc why the hell are you ordering that.
Potential-Read-4824 [OP] 30 points 11m ago
it was 5 mins before close and i was so dumbfounded , looking back on it its just a damn refresher with milk and a crap ton of syrup like why do people even say all of this
Perfect-Leadership58 11 points 11m ago
tbh i’d be willing to let it slide, until they said blended, anything after that is over
Apprehensive-You5261 7 points 11m ago
Blended with no ice too 😭
piratedashel 55 points 11m ago
Mmm, custom tea latte if they’re adding milk because fuck that.
lilminch 48 points 11m ago
what is the point of a no ice blended drink??
ardentAmbivalence 7 points 11m ago
I'm assuming they wanted it blended because of the fruit pieces maybe? But the dragonfruit tends not to blend super well in my experience so I think the person just wanted to be as big of a pain in the ass as possible.

Ice custom tea latte, charging the dragon fruit base and pieces.
Minute-General-2090 15 points 11m ago
I'm livid because what is that monstrosity?
verdeuce 14 points 11m ago
Dragon drink sub 2% blended anyone?
madisynsh 4 points 11m ago
and add water duh we can’t be too unhealthy 😌
verdeuce 4 points 11m ago
Add the water to dilute the 12 pumps of raspberry 🤪
madisynsh 5 points 11m ago
ahh yes watery fruit milk my favorite 🤭🤭
Flat-Whereas3075 1 points 11m ago
Add extra water, lite 2%, lite base, in a venti.
A-Tacolypse 11 points 11m ago
For a while there was a trend to just add inclusions to a water and shortly after that they put up a post stating you cannot add anything to a water other than water and ice. Anything else then it has the be rung up as a custom ice tea.
Tiny_Strategy_7723 6 points 11m ago
Instead of the blended option, we need a custom frappuccino button
Apprehensive-You5261 2 points 11m ago
I second this. There also should be a option to add juice instead of milk because ngl if you do a creme frap with apple juice no milk cinnamon dolce and extra caramel drizzle then the cinnamon sugar blended in and on top. I know it sounds super weird but it’s like a blended caramel apple spice and it’s really good!

no ice, blended, in a venti cup. What did you do???
nebulochaos 2 points 11m ago
You just have to top it off with more water 😌
ardentAmbivalence 3 points 11m ago
I think this would've gone better for them if they ordered a venti dragon drink with 2% instead of coconut milk, light mango dragonfruit base, add 12 pumps raspberry syrup, light ice, blend it if they want. But instead they had to make it all weird to put into the computer and gross to think about by asking for it in a cup of water. If you're going to try to be cheap at a Starbucks, why not ask for it in a cup of ice at least lmfao. I'd imagine it tasted like a very sweet and very watered down dragon drink.
Necessary_Low939 3 points 11m ago
?? How do they even come up with these
Broad-Flounder-4971 2 points 11m ago
“Sorry we are out of dragon fruit base. And milk. And water. Bye”
mrcupcake18 2 points 11m ago
I swear people do this on purpose to troll cause there is just no way! Wtf is even that dude like what?! 😱
Flat-Whereas3075 2 points 11m ago
If anyone orders something from me that doesn’t have extra water, extra ice, or room, you gonna pay for that next size up*!

(*other conditions may apply—like add-ons that you are actually paying for.)
Potential-Read-4824 [OP] 2 points 11m ago
oh i definitely charged them for a venti LOL
Flat-Whereas3075 2 points 11m ago
As. You. Should. 😤
throwawayrandomqs 1 points 11m ago
What if I want it in a bigger cup so it doesn’t spill?
Flat-Whereas3075 1 points 11m ago
Then you want room in there! You’re fine!
WingsofFlight 2 points 11m ago
What the...people scare me.


I would have done the same honestly.
jazzysoranio 2 points 11m ago
I mean. It’s gonna be gross anyway so I would just do it for them out of spite just so I can watch them try to take a sip of that monstrosity. It sounds disgusting 😂
Brokenhumor666 1 points 11m ago
