Are they stirring drinks anymore?
I get an iced coffee with cream almost everyday, and the last year, it’s been so rare that it’s just stirred or shaken up. Minor annoyance when trying to grab and go, but more so when picking up drive-thru and trying to avoid making a mess in the car.
Maybe they just think the drinks look cooler with coffee on bottom and cream on top idk. Probably less spoons that need to be washed. I’m most interested in just understanding Starbucks’ system and whether or not this is a training thing, ignorance, or laziness.
EDIT: love the haters. Cheers to the baristas that chimed in explaining the recent change! Problem identified.
