The NOT SWEET Espresso Frapp


"I want to cut my hair short like this, but I feel like I need to lose 10 pounds first," she said as she sipped on her espresso frappuccino with whipped cream.

A few weeks ago, on my cheat day, I wanted my dream drink from Starbucks. The espresso frappuccino with whipped cream added. I ordered it at the Target Starbucks. When the barista handed it to me, I took a sip and knew immediately... something was not right. So I went back and apologetically explained that I thought perhaps they had made my drink wrong and perhaps they might remake it for a poor lass like me.

Two baristas against one customer. They said, "No, espresso frappuccinos and coffee frappuccinos are NEVER SWEET. If you wanted it sweet, that's something you must specifically ask for when you order with your barista."

I said, "Oh, I believe that every other time I've ordered either an espresso or coffee frappuccino, they are always sweet."

They said, "No, they're making it wrong. Whoever is doing that made it wrong for you."

"Oh? Is that so."

"Yea, so you need to order it correctly next time."

"Ok cool, well, would you mind making me a SWEET coffee frappuccino if it's not too much trouble?"

"Yea, we'll make it special for you."

"K, GREAT. Sorry for ruining your life." Sheezus what's a girl gotta do to get her 50 grams of sugar drink around here? At this rate, I'm going to lose 20 pounds just arguing with you guys about blended drink recipes that are standard on your web site, and I can cut my hair tomorrow. Gotdamn.
