The salted caramel cream cold brew is one full pump caramel in the foam with salt and 1T/2G/3V/4Tr full pumps of vanilla in the cold brew.

If you mobile order it it says it comes with normal amount of caramel pumps, like 4 for a grande.
RosieHarlan 36 points 6m ago
Idk if they’re changing it or if the app Is wrong but POS and recipe cards are vanilla and cold brew pumps are always 1234 full pumps
dfarner 7 points 6m ago
Oh yeah for sure. A lot of people today are posting about this salted caramel cold brew recipe. I’ll keep doing it the way I always have.
clouds183 17 points 6m ago
there hasn’t been any communication around this changing besides the app randomly saying it, so until we get a weekly update saying they changed the drink or new drink cards saying they’ve changed, its not changing.
TakeTheWs -11 points 6m ago
There has. Last year apparently a weekly update had it.

Edit: I was wrong, my bad haha :)
RosieHarlan 17 points 6m ago
The weekly update from last year changed all cold brew bases to vanilla. The original recipe used to be caramel in the cold brew.

I’m pretty sure it’s meaning 4 cold bar pumps, the app used to be very confusing for cold bar drinks and this is how it used to list them when mobile order first came out and the vanilla sweet cream cold brew was launched using this standard of the cold bar pump. Definitely think this is a bug on the salted caramel cold brew. But I don’t know 🤷🏼‍♀️

Yep. App lists # of cold bar (half) pumps for drinks that get half pumps. E.g. shaken espresso is listed as having 3T/4G/6IV pumps, same as a latte, despite the shaken espresso getting half the syrup as a latte. It’s very confusing!

I have a regular who orders a tall mocha frap every morning and specifies one pump of mocha “even though the sticker doesn’t list it, it just says mocha, I will send it back if you put more than one pump of mocha” (she watches us pump it). But my store only keeps a hot bar mocha out, one pump of mocha is the default amount!

also the app shows that hot chocolate gets vanilla but the POS says it doesn’t so….
RosieHarlan 29 points 6m ago
Yeah Starbucks isn’t exactly known for keeping up with technology. The app and mobile ordering system is really outdated. It’s probably the worst of all the fast food chains.

Take a look at Burger King’s app sometime and get back to me. It’s pretty shit.
gabby24681 6 points 6m ago
Holy shit that’s way outdated
guachummus 4 points 6m ago
The app doesn’t show pumps of vanilla, just that vanilla is an ingredient but that’s just from the whip
Sarenord 0 points 6m ago
No it says the drink contains x pumps of mocha and 1 pump of vanilla
guachummus 1 points 6m ago
It actually doesn’t lol
Sarenord 2 points 6m ago
lmao they finally updated it. I just checked right now with the intention of dunking on you but it's been updated to be right.

2 weeks ago when I first read about this I loaded up the app and checked and it most definitely said "Vanilla syrup pump(s): 1"
Sarenord 1 points 6m ago
And just for confirmation, I verified a few days ago that the recipe cards don't either
postmal0n3 0 points 6m ago
I only put vanilla in kids cocos because our mocha is kinda bitter imo

ALSO because as a green bean i would always forget matcha comes w liquid cane, london fogs come w vanilla, etc. etc. because it didn’t say on the sticker,, and lattes don’t come with any syrup and it doesn’t say syrup on their sticker BECAUSE THEY DONT COME W ANY AKFNFJDKSKSK

aNyway, if they just printed the syrups on the sticker everyone’s life would be easier
Acrobatic-Sale-8717 3 points 6m ago
wait…. matcha comes with liquid cane…? 😟
skylikeslemonade 6 points 6m ago
in canada it does
Acrobatic-Sale-8717 3 points 6m ago
OH THANK GOD OK I WAS SCARED
skylikeslemonade 2 points 6m ago
hahahahah ik in the states your matcha has sugar in the powder but ours comes without
Forest0629 2 points 6m ago
That’s why we have recipe cards but I’ve never seen anyone actually use them
somewheredaydreaming -1 points 6m ago
If you read the weekly updates, most of this stuff is relayed to us. If your store isn't good about looking at the update, well then that's you're new goal to work towards🥳
yeahikimstupid -11 points 6m ago
This is a bad take.
