Anybody else’s drink order a bit complicated and feel bad when ordering it at other stores? (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by trentablondelatte
I make myself a 5 shot iced espresso with Ristretto shots, 2 pumps white mocha, 2 pumps toffee nut, light heavy cream, extra 2% in a venti cup with extra ice.
I only drive to my store because every other store messes it up😭 or i just make it every day for myself at work.

I get what I'm sure is an annoying drink, but I refuse to get it anywhere except my own store bc it's annoying and usually wrong when I get it elsewhere

idk I've noticed that a drink I think is simple is hard for other stores to get right for me as well literally a venti mango dragonfruit lemonade, no inclusions, extra lemonade so I always end up ordering it only at my store when I'm working.

My question for anyone that has a dictionary of a drink is How did you find out you liked it?

personally i just tried a ton of different syrup combos in my iced shaken espresso til i got to one i fell in love with (2 white mocha, 1 cinn dolce, 1 toffee nut)

My drink is very similar to your drink, but mine is a modded iced shaken espresso.

Venti iced shaken espresso: extra shot+ristretto-classic+a sprinkle of cinnamon+1 full pump white mocha+2 full pumps toffee nut+extra ice+light vanilla sweet cream.

I only get it at my store and only when I'm making it myself. So I only get to have this drink on days I work, which is fine because it's an $8 or $9 drink, and I don't wanna pay that (even -30%) for someone to mess with my overly-specific version of perfection.

When I'm not working and want SB, I have myriad drinks to fallback on that are significantly less annoying for the barista, so I'll order one of those instead. Save them a headache.

I don’t actually get much from Starbucks whether I’m working or not, but when I do want something obnoxious (frapps are my guilty pleasure) I mobile order so I don’t have to confess I’m a partner (and keep it simple, plus leave plenty of time to pick up & order at less busy times).

Quade grande blonde ristretto doubleshot, sub valilla, lt coconut milk, cold brew whip, light caramel drizzle

my current favourite drink until fall launch is a grande shaken espresso with two blonde shots, six pumps toasted vanilla, cinnamon, oatmilk, and caramel drizzle. at my store pretty much everyone knows that i love to throw the oatmilk into the shaker and shake that as well but it's separated at every other store so it's not as good- but i refuse to be That Guy
