I think maybe this isn't what they actually wanted. Had someone order a "vanilla cream" in the drive yesterday with these same mods. I thought they meant vanilla cream cold brew and the DTR thought they meant a vanilla cream (the steamed milk drink). But after I jumped in and went back and forth with them, because everyone was confused, they finally said the word "frozen". Turns out they wanted a vanilla bean cream frappuccino with these mods. Sometimes you really have to grill the customer because there is a lot of crossover between very different items.

They must have all seen the same tik tok video because I had 2 customers very upset when we handed them vanilla sweet cream cold brews with dragon fruit in it...

Oof. Yeah, whenever I hear an order that sounds weird af I carefully go through the whole thing to give them every opportunity to tell me what I have is wrong because half the time it is and they just don't know how to word things.

Yeah somebody ordered a vanilla bean with these mods yesterday at my store too. Must be a new trend

So many times a customer asks for a “mocha coffee” or “hazelnut coffee” and I’m 99% sure they mean a mocha or a hazelnut latte 🫥 like I get that you probably don’t get coffee a lot but cmon

No they ordered that and wanted it 😂 we were shocked and made sure with them

In the UK & Europe, we don’t have vanilla bean, we just have vanilla. So a vanilla cream is a frap the same way a caramel cream is

But also isn’t the vanilla steamer call vanilla cream?

The face I just made… that’s awful 🤢
rnaggie5327 points7m ago
Oh my god same thing happened to me!!! They meant to order a frapp. The TikTok told them something stupid.
rnaggie538 points7m ago
Clearly this was from the same TikTok lol
snartblartmcgee21 points7m ago
did they request a "vanilla cream?" because I had something similar where they asked for all that but said the base drink was a "vanilla cream" and I assumed the vanilla steamer (asked them if it was the hot drink at the box, they said yes, clarified again at window, they said yes) and then when we handed it they said it was supposed to be frozen 🙃 not to mention it was like a 13yo ordering it and she kept being rude at the box because she WOULD NOT speak up so I asked her to please speak up and repeat so she started yelling it and went way too fast and it was just a BAD customer experience
snartblartmcgee13 points7m ago
how hard is it to say "frap" to save you so much trouble
I_like_to_know2 points7m ago
I just read a comment on a TiKTok about a customer's drink being made incorrectly where someone stated that actually, the correct name of the vanilla bean frappuccino is vanilla bean creme. I was like huh? TikTok spreading lies every day.

This JUST HAPPENED at my store. JFC
i8urheart [OP]1 points7m ago
Yeah, we were asking them because we were like I don’t know if we can serve this to you and they said yes they wanted a cold brew with the mango dragon in it

some lady came up to me with the actual tiktok and it was in spanish and it in fact said the words “vanilla cream” but i was so tired and i straight up said “no, we don’t have that”. the person that made the tiktok isn’t even a partner and called it a barbie frap

We have people order the most questionable, eye wrenching, unhinged combinations at my store all the time 😭
i8urheart [OP]1 points7m ago
Worst part, she sipped it and liked it. Made a sample for my partner. They said that it made their eyes water.💀😭

I don't think it's a TikTok, I think it's coming from those apps that are popping up all over the place that specifically for "Starbucks Secret Menu Recipes"

I had a customer order that today and had absolutely no idea how to ring it up cause they didn’t want the VSC cold brew. Tik tok drinks are so damn annoying
messybluejaye1 points7m ago
Lmao yep. It's a tik tok
HarleySpicedLatte1 points7m ago
Must be another tiktok thing. Got something similar today myself
gemlikbase1 points7m ago
That actually sounded pretty fire until I got to mango dragonfruit base :’(
