It finally happened, someone ordered an “under the sea refresher” (self.starbucksbaristas)

And!! When explaining to my clueless coworker what it was on the headset I said “some doofus on TikTok” but little did I know that I was also talking outside!!!

The customers were chill about it, it was a mom and her son and they thought it was funny but I feel a little bit like a doofus

"Every microphone is hot, and every camera is filming."

I wasn’t being mean!! It was lighthearted, I wasn’t dogging on the customer by any means lol it just was a funny/embarrassing situation

Oh, I agree, funny as heck!

That’s the truth! Never text either. Those cameras can zoom in and pause anytime from anywhere in the USA! Oh and the cameras can also listen to all the conversations fyi

“No that was a TikTok prank, haha. No I don’t have it, would you like some water? 😊”

Out of curiosity…what did the drink end up being? 🤣

I might be remembering wrong, but I believe the "under the sea refresher" was just a joke because it's just urnex and water, not an actual "secret menu" item.

Although it was a TikTok joke. I’m pretty sure they were testing a “Under The Sea” drink. If you go under the regional test drinks on the PoS, it was there for a good six months.

It’s blue gatorade with gummy worms.

Some little kid came in yesterday and asked me for it. I asked what the ingredients were and she said she wasn’t sure but that it was blue, and it was on the secret menu. I had to explain to this poor child that the secret menu isn’t real, it’s made up on the internet, and that we don’t have anything in our store that would make a blue drink. Then I looked it up and realized it was some dude on TikTok who just put blue gatorade and gummy worms into a Starbucks cup to troll people.

My favorite response is, “that’s not an item on our menu but if you find the recipe online we’d be happy to make it for you!”

NO WAY some lady walked in my store with her daughter asking if I knew what this was and when I said no she left😭😭

One time I accidentally left my headset on to where everyone at the speaker could hear me and I deff said what the fuck way to loud.

I tell people it’s only able to be drank once bc it’s toxic and you won’t live to drink it again

Remember on the headsets, A is for assholes, B is for buddies.
