High Maintenance drink

I think my favorite Satrbuck's drink is a little high maintenance. It’s a

“Venti, vanilla, chai, soy, latte”

And sometimes…
“With no H2O” depending if I want it thick or not.

And if I REALLY need caffeine, I ask for an extra shot of espresso!

No wonder the cashier looked at me weird when I placed my order today, had me repeat my drink request three times, and still got it wrong!

Oh I hate when they get my order wrong. PET.PEVE.!!!!!!!!! I try not to make a scene but sometimes it can't be helped, especially after 3 times of repeating the order.

Hahha I remember when you ordered that when we were at starbux :) So I guess you like the "no H20" option now? I wasn't sure if you liked that or not!

Wow, that's quite a mouthful to say.
I prefer my mocha frappachino. Easier to say, but longer to make.

I just don't get all these coffee drinks, probably because I don't drink coffee... :-)

It's really weird because I love coffee chocolate.. I love the SMELL of freshly brewed coffee.. I love coffee candles and coffee candies.. but I do NOT drink coffee.. I don't like the taste!!

I'm a hot cocoa girl.

Flat Coke - I try not to make a scene wither and when they get it wrong I don't care, unless they forget the vanilla, then I have to say something.

Ano - I like it sometimes...I have to be in the mood for a thicker drink.

James - I know... I feel sooo high maintenance! HAHA! You should see the look on most barist's face when I order.

Jordan - That is interesting! Coffee is a staple in my family growing up. We drink it VERY watered down though, with molasses, milk and sometimes sugar.

Hey, what another koinkidink... I was just talking to my friend about that report on over milked cows and how their teats get sores and infections and the puss goes into the milk. Interesting.

Girl... I had milk today, tho. Yes, me! Tia invited me over to her house for lunch and was so proud of her smoothies and made me one. It tasted good, but all I kept thinking about was that report on the milk... oh well! I am not going to die!

The Barista should be used to the customized drinks. Starbucks kinda prides itself on the gimmick of personalized drink orders. That's how they can charge $7 for a cup of coffee.

My drink is a caffe mocha with soy.

I think mine is a little out of hand, tho. Haha!

Oh...nice choice! That sounds good right now!!!
