I so badly want to literally do everything as per the usual, just without ice, and hand them their drink (being a half empty frothy chunky mess) with a smile and carry on like nothing's weird.... That would be my dying wish honestly one day.

i do that shit all the time when ppl pull this shit. it’s so funny. i remember one time a customer ordered a cappuccino not at all knowing what it actually is and then looked at me weird probably thinking that i was gonna ask what’s wrong, but i just looked at her and looked away cause we gave u what u ordered. the drink was made completely correctly 🤷🏾♀️
Avoni_C34 points9m ago
No because this woman ordered a cappuccino and I made it perfectly and she forced me to remake it because it was too light and "is there even any espresso in here?" "Yes ma'am a cappuccino is espresso and foam" "well I don't want it" "So you want a latte?" Silence. "Well I don't want this" 🙃

Lol same with me. A customer ordered both a tall latte and a tall cappuccino. Handed them both to him and he’s like moving them both up and down and says “one has less in it” I go “no sir, ones a latte and the other is a cappuccino” he says “ones less full” again, I say “sir, a latte is mostly milk with some foam, a cappuccino is less milk and mostly foam, so it’ll be lighter in weight” HE GOES “you’re wrong” so at that point this conversation was out of my pay grade so I called my sm over to explain it to him lmao

i’ve determined this is 100% because of gas station coffee. i’ve seen “cappuccinos” that come dispensed straight from a machine with no foam (not sure what it is, but it’s definitely not an actual cappuccino).

I do this, not to be funny but because i genuinely think thats what we are supposed to do? Is that not it?
GoldennTrash39 points9m ago
my idea of making the moment right is different from starbucks’s idea. they want u to kiss customer’s asses, i specifically don’t do that, so answers may vary lol
dallizzlee2 points9m ago
This happens with cappuccinos a lot 😂 nobody knows what their ordering

Lol do they think they'll get mOrE dRiNk?

chunks of matcha in lukewarm milk… yummy
ladycali8734 points9m ago
I need to know the customers reason and expectation for this modification. I gotta know what’s going on in that head! Lol

Probably assumed iced matcha latte, have a regular that gets a venti iced matcha latte with no ice and the matcha scooped on top, we don't question it anymore.
DylaFer1 points9m ago
This is actually super popular and it’s because some people actually like the chunks of matcha when it’s not properly shaken 🤢🫣

In cases like this I've noticed it's so they can take it home and make it there with ice
clouds18316 points9m ago
yeah ok but why do the extra work when you’ve already paid for it to be made with ice
Number1Barooista17 points9m ago
Most likely want it for later. Like a deconstructed frap all they gotta do is add ice at home and blend and it's fresh. I've definitely thought about bringing all the ingredients of a frap to blend at home to make later in the evening.

I get no ice for shaken espressos sometimes. Still baffles me to this day
tadomegu11 points9m ago
Some people just lite ice everything without understanding the drink 🤪 sometimes when I go “so you want extra milk? Because the foundation of the drink is espresso and ice” and they go “uh, never mind.”
dnims244 points9m ago
Lately I’ve been getting a lot of bso with light ice and I let them know that there’ll be room at the top and every time without fail “we’ll can’t you just fill it up with extra milk??” 🙃 obviously I can but I have to tell you cuz that’s how I was trained and also some people don’t like it so milky
Moumins5 points9m ago
Most of the time it’s because they want to bring it home and add the ice in themselves, so it doesn’t melt on the way home. Pretty smart actually and it’s easy for us to do.
Alec_Malenfant2 points9m ago
Our store will sometimes put the milk and matcha in a foaming pitcher for a couple of seconds to mix it evenly

Uhhhh…. I’m questioning this person’s life choices.

Weirdly enough I’m starting to think no ice means double blended….
