Starbucks Baristas HATE It When You Order This Popular Drink–Say It Ain’t So!

Don’t believe us? We spoke to a current employee of Starbucks at one of their Greenwich, CT locations, who griped about the refresher drinks.

“I personally don’t like making the refresher drinks, nor do I understand why they’re even sold here,” Calvin* told us of the fruity drink, which also boasts a whopping 38 grams of sugar.

“From the stand point of being a barista, I just don’t get it. It’s not a drink I enjoy making,” he told our reporter. 

Interesting! If you want to be one with your barista, opt for a hot coffee drink instead, preferably with steamed milk, like a flat white—a barista’s dream order to make!

Any drink that doesn’t take skill to execute should NOT cost $5. You’re getting the Starbucks up-charge, without actually getting the best their menu and employees have to offer. And that’s not to mention the added sugar calories. Opt instead for a bottled tea and save yourself a couple dollars (and the public ridicule).
