“Do you guys have the minion refresher” (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by vareenoo
This little girl comes up to me and asks about a tiktok drink called the minion refresher. She shows me the tiktok and ofc it’s that one dude that makes these ridiculous and complicated drinks. Anyways, the drink ends up being expensive asf (expected) and she runs off to go get her money.


I start making the drink right away because otherwise I was going to forget what was in it.


Her mom comes in and the total is >7$. She freaks out at me and her voice is so annoying. “Ummm can you like umm make this less expensive?! Like a small?” I explain that it’s already a small and I’m not just going to charge her for less.. She keeps bitching about the fucking minion refresher being too expensive and me and my coworker are trying so hard not to laugh. She has that annoying voice fry and her tone was condescending. Anyways, the little girl didn’t get her minion refresher😔

i can feel my teeth gritting from even having read that

That should be rung in as a Frappuccino for inventory reasons, since there’s not a button for the bases as a modifier, but I suspect that would be a $10 drink as a frap, so that’s probably why they do it that way. (If anyone feels some odd need to try this, an easier way to order and ring this would be: vanilla bean frap, sub coconut milk, add pineapple base and raspberry syrup, strawberry purée around the cup, no whip, sub vsccf)

Some kids asked me about a minion drink which is similar to what you mentioned above but also had blueberries. They proceeded to order 3 of them. 10 minutes before closing. I wanted to sue.

Barista, can you make this little kid one of the hundreds of shitty tic tok drinks that are asked for every day (that’s not on the menu, of course!) for free so mom will learn how to be a mom? Thanks, that’d be greeeeat!

Did you look at OP’s comment about what was in the drink?? Personally, I consider it borderline neglectful to let your child drink that. I did some research, and that drink would have been about 99 grams of sugar. Thats four times the recommended MAXIMUM daily amount for children.
