So you all have probably seen the satire article about Starbucks’ “brown drink”, the key word here being satire because the brown drink is literally just coffee. But yesterday at work, a lady seriously asked us if we knew how to make “the brown drink”. Also, my coworker taking the orders totally enabled someone who asked for “the purple drink” and put it through without asking for the recipe. It made me so pissed.
We need to stay strong against the rainbow morons. Only make the rainbow drinks if they give you a recipe, even if you personally already know it. Starbucks prides itself on consistency and quality across all of its stores, so we need to be maintaining that and not caving in to anything that isn’t actually on the menu.
