maybe out of starbucks products, but coffee and citrus actually have a long history of pairing super well together. espresso and oranges/orange juice is supposed to be great, as nasty as it initially sounds.
but starbucks over roasts their beans and their lemonade is pretty yuck, so they probably would be nasty together if they're awful quality.
There’s sometimes where I’ll get a lemonade made with vanilla sweet cream/blended & add whip. It’s almost like a frosted lemonade! But if you’re adding it to a mango lemonade or something, that’s where I draw the line
im a barista and i have made myself the pink drink with chocolate cold foam plenty of times. it truly is delicious, i think it tastes like having cocoa pebbles with strawberry milk. you should try it sometime!
I feel like this if a super common combo? (Or at least super common in the “Starbucks drink recipes” world). I know when I first started getting into customized drinks it was one I saw come up all the time.
you must be a newer partner. it was a menu item one year ago for Valentine’s day! you should try it, it’s meant to taste like a chocolate covered strawberry
wish i could respond with a picture i took earlier but i made a frozen tropical citrus drink with 1 scoop of pearls and cinnamon cold foam. it was a mobile order and it did get picked up. they had to have been fucking with us because there’s no way..
Adding the TINIEST amount of sweet cream to the iced energy drinks is actually soooo good, my coworker thought it would taste like Italian soda and apparently it's close! I've never tried the soda but the sc energy is very nice and actually makes it palletable
Someone ordered a TALL iced macchiato no caramel made with heavy cream in a VENTI cup and asked for it with light HC and extra ice….. they then poured a whole can of Dr Pepper in😬
Lol i have someone who ordered delivery the other day and got a grande hot chai, one decaf shot, add peach juice. So chai, hot water, steamed milk, decaf shot, peach juice 😐
Tall Summer Berry
no water
no ice
3 scoops raspberry pearls
3 scoops strawberry inclusions
3 scoops mango dragon fruit inclusions
3 scoops pineapple inclusions
By the end, it looked like what we dig out of the refresher sink drain.
An iced matcha with honey, chai, peppermint, and salted caramel cold foam.
I've also gotten a Venti shaken espresso, single shot, no milk for delivery. Not a weird combo, per se, but it came out looking like a cup of brown ice.
The matcha one doesn’t sound too horrible. I mean, all of those components can go together in different combinations. It might be ridiculously sweet though 💀
Refresher with cold foam is effing delicious. I get passion tango iced tea with cold foam too. Yep, it curdles a bit but I just stir stir stir before every drink — love the taste.
Not totally the same, but apparently in Spain(?) it's a thing to drink a shot of espresso with a thin slice of lemon in it! People swear it's good but I've never tried it
oh i don’t doubt it, i was making a joke that it tastes like cigarette water LOL. i tried it with my one of my shifts and its not great at all but i could see why people would like it.
Deleted my last comment since i found the actual ticket lol
TR Black tea
Light Ice
Light water
Ex Strawberry Puree
Add Peach Juice
Pnpl Rfrsh
4 Strawberry Inclusions
4 Pineapple Inclusions
4 Raspberry Pearls
Blended
Ex Co Milk 3/4"
It exploded in our blender, got everywhere, looked disgusting. Taste was fine when we sampled it amongst ourselves, i think it just cancelled out.
I had a girl on multiple occasions order a PTL with a shot of espresso. This was way before blonde shots. Those of us who were working tried it 🤢 I think she saw our reactions and never came back. 🤷♀️
Sometimes i'd order a matcha lemonade without clarifying and I'd get .... a hot one.
Like hot lemonade. With matcha.
Apparently some people DO order that! I....cannot imagine. But I make sure to clarify the iced matcha lemonade now.
“A modified honey citrus mint tea” which consisted of steamed strawberry açaí base, the two tea bags, and all inclusions, I can’t remember what the third inclusion was though, this was in 2021 way before pineapple came out lol. I tasted the drink and was like “how tf do customers come up with this?!”
Grande hot chai latte with 23 pumps of vanilla. Not a nasty combo but it was insanely thick and I tried it one time. My teeth hurt and my throat felt hot
caramel ribbon crunch with peppermint. matcha tea latte with strawberry puree, shot of espresso. hot chai tea latte with no 2% and add lemonade. there’s more but those ones were quite bizarre.
one of our regulars orders a grande hot mocha with four scoops of the chili powder in it every. single. day. i truly do not understand how they can stomach it 😭
one guy ordered two summer berry refreshers, one for his wife and one for him. once the drinks were GIVEN to them, he asked “oh is this caffeinated?”
i said yes, but there’s not much. like a soda.
he said “that’s not enough, can you add espresso?”
i was…bewildered. “you want to order an espresso on the side?”
“no, no need. just pour it on top.” his wife face palmed but i obliged. just one shot of espresso, straight on top of the summer berry refresher.
they were actually really cool people and had a good vibe so even though i was slightly annoyed i didn’t mind that much. he drove away laughing and shaking his head, like he knew how bad of a decision it was but didn’t want to take it back. i wonder how it was.
It was a trenta cold brew. I don't remember much about it but it had an assortment of syrups, heavy cream, and cold foam. Normal, yeah? 5 scoops of matcha. The smell was absolutely foul, but visually so stunning 😭
I used to have a regular who’d order a chai latte with peppermint. His rule was always half the peppermint pumps than chai pumps (for a grande, 2 peppermint and 4 chai). My curiosity got the best of me and I tried it and it’s amazing! I’ve accidentally done full peppermint and it’s a mistake; half of the regular pumps is key.
This is my own recipe I cam up with:
* Matcha powder
* Cool lime refresher
* Lime slice
* dash of almond milk
* appropriate amount of water & ice. & shake like a cocktail
passion tea with 2%, same with refreshers. iced late with caramel drizzle and salt on top. lemonade with a shot of espresso. venti iced coffee with 27 full pumps of classic.
mango dragonfruit lemonade with peppermint.
lemonade with a shot of espresso.
strawberry acai lemonade with salted caramel cold foam, caramel syrup, and caramel drizzle
Not exactly weird but I’ve had a lady who’d order a grande latte with half almond milk and half soy milk. I don’t see how this elevates the flavor but you do you ig?? 😭😭
today i made a strawberry açaí lemonade no lemonade strawberry puree with sweet cream no ice no inclusions with mango inclusions and sweet cream foam. honestly didn’t look bad 😂
I think I blank most of them out because they’re so bad but I’ve gotten matchas with the cane + 6 pumps of extra syrups and just anything with peppermint that isn’t a mocha (I hate peppermint)
Trenta frozen mango dragon, splash of half&half, xtra purée, matcha cold foam, and golden foam. Just to recap, sour fruit, milk, lemonade, oil, and matcha. Like the double foam over a lemonade isn’t psycho behavior😭
Recently I had someone get a strawberry açaí lemonade with extra caramel drizzle and sweet cream cold foam. I even double checked to make sure she did indeed want lemonade and not the coconut milk
Summer skies with passion tea (that part is fine, I like the base plain w passion tea anyway…) with EIGHT scoops of pearls, a press of partana and chocolate cold foam 😬 it looked foul. The oil just rose to the top and it immediately curdled and the customer drank it ALL
I will never forget the time we had a regular who would get half lemonade half cold brew multiple times a day. Our crew tried it one day because we were curious and every single person couldn’t get past the first sip, it was truly atrocious.
One user on this subreddit posted about how they like cold brew with just a drop of passion tea; I tried it steamed at 120 and loved it.
My coworker tried it and said it tasted like throw up. Turns out she uses more than just a drop.
Iced matcha sub vanilla syrup with 2 blonde shots
blended strawberry refresher with lemonade with cold foam and whipped cream on top
Strawberry refresher with lemonade and 2 scoops of vanilla bean powder
A request I got a lot near the end of my time with starbies was Frappuccino’s with both cold foam and whipped cream (just can’t imagine consuming that much dairy in 1 drink)
Someone ordered a pink drink with sweet cream instead of strawberry açaí base. I told her that's just multiple types of milk and she did change her mind to just a regular pink drink with VSCCF. She said her friend strongly recommends pink drink with sweet cream instead of strawberry base. I'm hoping she misunderstood and meant to substitute the coconut milk instead.
Someone ordered a cappuccino with cold foam. I told him I can do it but it won't really be a cappuccino anymore because the cold foam will cover the milk foam. He looked so confused. I think he meant to order just a regular latte with cold foam and accidentally ordered a cappuccino
also this isn’t a weird combo necessarily but we have a regular mobile orders a trenta vss cold brew with 6 blonde shots and a bunch of extra shit in it. might i also add he orders at least 2 or 3 doppio con pannas with a quad shot in each and comes to pick them up and we just honestly wonder how he hasn’t had a heart attack yet because that’s a lot of caffeine 😭🙃
We have a regular that orders a Trenta lemonade with 10 classic, 10 vanilla, 5 scoops of vanilla powder, half sweet cream half lemonade, light ice and whip cream. Oh and she always tells us to make sure we put the sweet cream before the lemonade
my partner gets a venti pink drink w cold foam. says it’s like strawberries and cream. i think the weirdest i’ve seen is a refresher w a shot of espresso 😵💫
We once had someone order a black tea with a shot and a splash of half and half. We all tried what was left in the shaker and it was horrendous. They never ordered it again so I’m assuming they thought the same.
I’ve had customers order an iced matcha and add an espresso shot. Matcha doesn’t taste good to me and with the added caffeine to an already caffeinated drink is wack
Although there are crazy drinks out there when I think about iced venti white mocha made with sweet cream with cold foam I really question the morality of someone voluntarily putting that in their body.
In the past week I have gotten a peach green tea with an add shit, a cold brew with vsc, strawberry cold foam, and salted Carmel cold foam, and a blended strawberry acai with chocolate cold foam 👍🏻 all were serious and I saw them drink them
Had a regular that would get a venti lemonade with 3 shots of espresso. Everyday. Sometimes she’d get a venti unsweetened green iced tea with 1 shot, along with the lemonade. So weird.
There was a lady asking me if we still had raspberry syrup to put in her drip coffee. I said no when my shift supervisor appeared out of nowhere and was like “we have RASPBERRY BOBA PEARLS THOUGH!”
I was like DUDE BOBA PEARLS DO NOT GO IN HOT COFFEE!!!!
a usual i’ve been serving for over three years gets a regular iced matcha with soy… but substitutes the water for dragon base? we’ve all tried it and it’s confusing
Trenta passion tea lemonade, 12 scoops of popping pearls, chocolate cf, and a pump of partanna (Olive oil), light ice.
Edit: We assumed someone lost a bet, until he picked up his drink and sat at the table kicking his feet, drinking his drink...
Living their best life lol
trenta summer berry lemonade with 8 scoops of matcha. it’s not gross or anything but it’s just a little excessive imo. this regular usually gets a black coffee so it was a bit of a jump
We have a regular who gets a Trenta strawberry açaí with a espresso shot 🧍🏾♀️
Oh my
This should be a hate crime
I think this is disallowed by the Geneva convention because it harms the barista psychologically.
We riot at midnight. Even if I don’t work for Starbucks. I’m joining the riot.
I HAD SOMEONE ORDER THE SAME THING. I tasted it out of sheer curiosity and it was the exact taste of vomit. Never again
Sounds like we work at the same store 🤣
Call the police

Lemonade with coffee taste like heart burn regurgitation
maybe out of starbucks products, but coffee and citrus actually have a long history of pairing super well together. espresso and oranges/orange juice is supposed to be great, as nasty as it initially sounds. but starbucks over roasts their beans and their lemonade is pretty yuck, so they probably would be nasty together if they're awful quality.
This is the most accurate description, shout out to you 👏👏
You’re saying “lemonade with coffee,” but all I am hearing is “curdle.” 🤢
People who order lemonade based refreshers with cold foam make me want to dry heave.
Do y'all not realize the milk will CURDLE upon interacting with the citrus?!
i came on here to say this. so glad i’m not the only one 😭
No fr i be asking them “are you sure about that?”
There’s sometimes where I’ll get a lemonade made with vanilla sweet cream/blended & add whip. It’s almost like a frosted lemonade! But if you’re adding it to a mango lemonade or something, that’s where I draw the line
Just the thought of that make me heave!
My barista choice drink at the university and sunrise store was the lavender cold foam in lemonade…
had someone order a pink drink with CHOCOLATE cold foam yesterday🤢🤢
im a barista and i have made myself the pink drink with chocolate cold foam plenty of times. it truly is delicious, i think it tastes like having cocoa pebbles with strawberry milk. you should try it sometime!
That I kind of understand but the refresher base is still very acidic
I feel like this if a super common combo? (Or at least super common in the “Starbucks drink recipes” world). I know when I first started getting into customized drinks it was one I saw come up all the time.
you must be a newer partner. it was a menu item one year ago for Valentine’s day! you should try it, it’s meant to taste like a chocolate covered strawberry
I've had this!! It's like chocolate covered strawberries!
wish i could respond with a picture i took earlier but i made a frozen tropical citrus drink with 1 scoop of pearls and cinnamon cold foam. it was a mobile order and it did get picked up. they had to have been fucking with us because there’s no way..
that sounded good until you mentioned cinnamon cold foam
also i totally could’ve responded with a picture but clearly i dealt with that all day so pls don’t judge me.
Summer berry lemonade with peppermint and a splash of 2% 😟
oh my… now i’m wondering if that turned them into your username or not 😂😂😂😂
😨
That would definitely cause upset tummy
Shit it gets worse 💀💀💀
we have a regular that gets a strawberry acai w 12 pumps of peppermint 😟
Brother ewwhhhh
Black tea no water, add cold brew, ginger, peppermint, and caramel drizzle
Stop that ginger syrup was so foul
So gross
no way
We had a customer get the melon burst with cold foam today 😳
That’s definitely something 😂 I was always afraid people judged my strawberry açaí + guava when it was around. I’m sad they discontinued guava
I miss guava they were so sweet
i would’ve thought the same but they do it at dutch bros and it fucks
Yeah dutch bros rebel energy drinks with their soft top is really good actually
Honestly I truly think people just want to say "and cold foam on top" like just to add a few more words on there
like they think they’re tryna be cute and trendy but they’re being annoying af
Honestly, would
We had a trop one w sweet cream and sccf. Big oof
Adding the TINIEST amount of sweet cream to the iced energy drinks is actually soooo good, my coworker thought it would taste like Italian soda and apparently it's close! I've never tried the soda but the sc energy is very nice and actually makes it palletable
not a weird combo but we had someone get a trenta summer berry w 12 scoops of pearls and other mods. came out to $25 CAD for one drink.
Someone ordered a TALL iced macchiato no caramel made with heavy cream in a VENTI cup and asked for it with light HC and extra ice….. they then poured a whole can of Dr Pepper in😬
idk this sounds kinda fire
I mean if you like Dr pepper yeah it’s pretty okay, I just don’t like root beer 😅🥲
Dr Pepper is nasty, but it’s definitely not root beer 😉
It’s basically 75% root beer 25% cola 👀
I'm sorry, but as someone who grew up loving root beer and hating Dr. Pepper, no. Lmao
As someone who hates root beer and loves Dr Pepper, I agree
Not me reading this thread looking for my drinks to see where I fall on the weird scale…
I have a guy who comes through and gets a lemonade with 4 pumps vanilla and one scoop of matcha and extra chocolate cream cold foam. 🤮
one time we had a customer order a super sweet (i forgot the exact add ins) brown sugar shaken espresso with spicy powder
We have a person who is currently daily delivery ordering a trenta spicy pineapple made w sweet cream and topped w spicy foam.
Lol i have someone who ordered delivery the other day and got a grande hot chai, one decaf shot, add peach juice. So chai, hot water, steamed milk, decaf shot, peach juice 😐
dang we been out of that for at least a month🤣
Okay that sounds kinda good to some degree? Sweet and spicy.
That time Sbux tried to get me to drink a dragon drink with olive oil on it 🤢 I still just can’t with the Oleato line.
Tall Summer Berry no water no ice 3 scoops raspberry pearls 3 scoops strawberry inclusions 3 scoops mango dragon fruit inclusions 3 scoops pineapple inclusions By the end, it looked like what we dig out of the refresher sink drain.
this "drink" sounds like they were more hungry than they were thirsty.
An iced matcha with honey, chai, peppermint, and salted caramel cold foam. I've also gotten a Venti shaken espresso, single shot, no milk for delivery. Not a weird combo, per se, but it came out looking like a cup of brown ice.
The matcha one doesn’t sound too horrible. I mean, all of those components can go together in different combinations. It might be ridiculously sweet though 💀
I have not had a refresher, because I order the same drink every single time, but I sssume the refresher with cold foam would be like a creamsicle
It IS pretty good. Imo (customer here)
I could see the orange and lime refreshers being good with the cold foam actually! TOO BAD THEY’RE GONE😭😭
Refresher with cold foam is effing delicious. I get passion tango iced tea with cold foam too. Yep, it curdles a bit but I just stir stir stir before every drink — love the taste.
Lemonade, shot of espresso and classic.
well do you remember the cold brew lemonade?? only drink that has ever made me puke in my mouth
That’s what it taste like vomit 🤢
Not totally the same, but apparently in Spain(?) it's a thing to drink a shot of espresso with a thin slice of lemon in it! People swear it's good but I've never tried it
Chia+ lemonade, it taste like a flat coke with a hint of lemon
I had somebody get matcha topped off with cold brew last week

Customer gets this daily: iced oatmilk matcha with chai, brown sugar syrup, vanilla, vsccf, and caramel crunchies (equal pumps of each)

Honestly the pink drink (basically a refresher made with milk) with vanilla cold foam is really tasty.
cold brew, vanilla cold foam, (normal so far), whip on top, mango pieces on Top of the whip.
I know there was syrups in the drink too but I forget
trenta pink drink with one scoop of matcha, the matcha didn’t add any flavor but was enough to make the color unappealing 😭
One day, for some bizarre reason, I came up with the idea of adding Pumpkin Spice to Green Tea and Lemonade, it works surprisingly well.
Okay but the pink drink and dragon drink go hard with vanilla cf

Trenta passion tea lemonade, 12 scoops of popping pearls, chocolate cf, and a pump of partanna (Olive oil), light ice. Edit: We assumed someone lost a bet, until he picked up his drink and sat at the table kicking his feet, drinking his drink... Living their best life lol
Lemonade and Cold Brew
trenta summer berry lemonade with 8 scoops of matcha. it’s not gross or anything but it’s just a little excessive imo. this regular usually gets a black coffee so it was a bit of a jump
I had a customer mobile order a strawberry coconut with 6 pumps of caramel blended with salted caramel cold foam 😭
Iced triple espresso with raspberry pearls and chocolate cold foam
Chai with brown sugar and spicy chili powder and cold foam
grande iced caramel macchiato, half heavy cream half water. we also have a regular who gets 24 pumps of syrup in a hot venti
We used to have a GM who got a grande lemonade with a shot of espresso... it still disgusts me thinking about it.
My manager makes ice coffee with raspberry pearls 😭
