Why do people do this? ()

Better question is why was it made this way?

Longjumping_Future63 92 points 8m ago

At my store we have a customer who specifically asks for half the trenta cup to be coffee, the other half milk and foam, and if he doesnt get it perfectly he sends it back. Something similar could be the case here.

LY-_- 11 points 8m ago

Do you do the “add dairy” button?

fookyall 22 points 8m ago

Immediately my first thought

jams1015 138 points 8m ago

This looks wrong. From what the sticker says to what the picture shows. It looks wrong.

Sorry, Stone. This drink doesn't Rock.

Badum-ba-tsk

GVRDENS_1 111 points 8m ago

Why the hell you make it like that?

Vegan_Sweetie 81 points 8m ago

3/4 inch heavy cream? Whoever made it did 3 inches. 😅

hypomargoteros 22 points 8m ago

More like 3-4 inch

_circuts 3 points 8m ago

I actually just had to explain this to a green bean the other day that its 3/4 inches and not 3/4 of the cup

Vegan_Sweetie 2 points 8m ago

Lol

arcanalalune 45 points 8m ago

I honestly don't see the huge deal with this.

Also, you add milk before ice so you can measure out how much milk you need with the lines.

karliseofdeath 39 points 8m ago

bruh im still stuck on STONE

idrinkcoolant 29 points 8m ago

growing up i knew twins named rock and stone

WanderingDwarfMiner 15 points 8m ago

For Rock and Stone!

plenzz 2 points 8m ago

Did I hear a Rock and Stone?

karliseofdeath 9 points 8m ago

the way they probably got dunked on constantly.

Renyx 3 points 8m ago

Are they cave people?

bloop_405 6 points 8m ago

I believe that's about 14 pounds?

StuffiesAndBeatSaber 2 points 8m ago

I had a friend in HS named Stone lol. He was a cool kid

Kaywin 28 points 8m ago

What, you don't also take your orange sweetened condensed milk with a little splash of coffee?

ladyelenawf 5 points 8m ago

Don't kink shame me!

olivinemultichrome 19 points 8m ago

They don’t want to admit they don’t like coffee

alphagoddessA 14 points 8m ago

Probably because it’s delicious? 😂 why do you care what other people like?

MunchYourButt 13 points 8m ago

That says 3/4 of an inch lol, I don’t think this is the customers fault

p4ulinas 9 points 8m ago

why did you make it this way? 😭

kaitrsmith 5 points 8m ago

what’s wrong with it??

thefrenchtoastfiend 5 points 8m ago

my store has a customer who gets 20 pumps of classic and 7 creams in the trenta iced coffee.

our classic pump is a half pump so we have to do 40 😭

xylophonezygote 5 points 8m ago

Did you use whipped cream instead of heavy cream?

BrusselsMarriott 4 points 8m ago

I’ve heard people do this to take home and portion out over days in plain cold brew. Makes sense to me. Definitely not my thing though.

flower_garden_ 3 points 8m ago

Better question, why did you put the heavy cream after ice? It's not standard, and it looks so sad 😭

chaosatnight 3 points 8m ago

What’s the problem with the order? You’re the one who made it incorrectly.

RapsodicalDisciple 3 points 8m ago

I just laughed at this the same way I'd laugh at a trainwreck tripping over their own shoelaces 😂😂

rlogranite 3 points 8m ago

They only wanted a little coffee with their pumpkin and heavy cream. 😆

Jade-Balfour 3 points 8m ago

For anyone who’s confused with the name: it could be their last name. My mother’s maiden name was Stone. It could also, of course, be a nickname

Missjaneausten 3 points 8m ago

Because they don’t actually like coffee but they want the energy they get from it.

tourniquette2 1 points 8m ago

I fill almost half my cup with cold foam, but I mix most of it into the drink. It makes it thick and creamy, so it’s a nice texture.

Wonderful-Put-5972 1 points 8m ago

🤢🤢

moldyhotpocket 1 points 8m ago

man you mixed in the pumpkin into the coffee but couldnt do it to the heavy cream too? lol

Indica-daddy 1 points 8m ago

I’d ask for it this way if I intended on making a smoothie with it at home. That being said, people are wild and like what they like. Not my cup of tea, but it doesn’t affect me if someone likes it.

besoinducafe 1 points 8m ago

That’s nothing 😅 most modified drinks have a much longer list to follow

siestasierra 7 points 8m ago

it’s iced coffee then milk then ice

DragonTear03 57 points 8m ago

Who teaches people to add milk after the ice it never mixes

Far-Comfortable-7032 5 points 8m ago

My old manager was adamant milk went after ice so you could “get a good pour” like with hot coffees… needless to say we fought a lot

miniinovaa 5 points 8m ago

It’s only like the for the VSCCB but you probably knew that ;p /gen

[deleted] [OP] -42 points 8m ago

jams1015 49 points 8m ago

Cold brew =/= iced coffee.

With a VSCCB, I will pour the sweet cream at the end, after the ice. Iced coffees, the milk or cream is always added before the ice. It changes things a LOT, try it both ways and compare to see.

reclusivegiraffe 10 points 8m ago

agreed, the whole reason VSCCB gets it over the ice is for aesthetic reasons, anyway. That’s the only drink that gets milk over the ice, except for like the honey almond milk cold brew, if i remember correctly. (Is that even a drink anymore?)

testingaurora 1 points 8m ago

How do cold brew and iced coffee differ?

Dani_Phantom22 12 points 8m ago

Who ever told u that need to go look up up again or get re-trained for drink standards.

capsule_of_anxiety1 4 points 8m ago

Iced coffee build is syrup, iced coffee to the middle black line, then whatever cream or milk to the top black line, ice to the top of the cup. Cold brew is the same if it’s got syrup and milk in it. I’d it has foam, ofc it does go last after the ice.

phoenixia217 4 points 8m ago

VSCCB is expressly different in the way it’s made bc of the way the SC cascades when poured after ice. Any other drink with added cream or milk is added at the beginning or at the very least before ice.

GVRDENS_1 3 points 8m ago

My slime, this is an iced coffee

geekgurl81 3 points 8m ago

That’s a cold brew, this is an iced coffee. The 3/4”cream is just that, 3/4 inch of it the bottom of the cup after the pumps of the syrup.

[deleted] [OP] 1 points 8m ago

Ok-Start-6768 15 points 8m ago

Standard for iced coffee is to do the milk before the coffee. Also that’s way more than extra…

krym32zamoon 6 points 8m ago

Check the recipe cards because that's incorrect

reclusivegiraffe 5 points 8m ago

the way i was taught for 1/2” of cream was to do coffee until the second black line, cream to the third, then ice for the top. for 1/4” i just go halfway between the second and third lines
