I was surprised Starbucks even had a melon syrup to begin with. What else was it used in besides lemonade? Or green tea?

Oh and I have another question. Lots of pent up Starbucks stuff I guess...
Usually when I get an iced coffee I just tell them I want a regular coffee but to pour it over ice. Usually they just do what I say but the other day a guy was like...that will taste weird, let me just give you an iced coffee. So I was like, well does it cost more? The tall regular coffee (and over ice) is $1.50 and he said the iced coffee was $1.85 for the tall. I was like ummm well, just pour it over ice cause that's how I usually get it but he wouldn't freaking give it to me. He kept going on and on about how it would taste bad and blah blah. I was like omg just give me what I want. Finally he just ended up giving me the iced coffee (I gave up) but only charged me $1.50. I didn't care too much about the price (I wasn't really commenting on that with him), but at the same time when I got this magical iced coffee it tasted the EXACT same as the regular way I got it. So now in the future I refuse to let them charge me $1.85 when I could get the same exact thing for $1.50. The 15 cents doesn't matter obviously, but I'm like...come on! It's principle lol. But anyway, sorry this is long. Is the "iced coffee" suppose to be much more wonderful and magical than just regular coffee over ice? |

How is that any of his business if that's what you want? And I'm sure he's forced to upsell, even for a mere 35 cents

Oops, I meant his business
And honestly, people have ordered some weird shit in my time at the coffee shop I worked at. I just make it. It only bothers me when they complain and when I remake the drink as the original recipe calls for they try it and say, "Now this is what I wanted!" THAT bothers me. |

I don't remember. I will have to look that up. And for I don't see why he couldn't do what you asked since we brew our ice coffee and add ice to it
afterwards. Although it could be a health issue as well since it would put the coffee in the danger zone for bacteria to grow. Its why if someone forgets to
tell us they wanted the drink iced we can't just poured steamed milk into a cup with ice we have to remake the drink entirely. Its also why we don't do
iced cappuccino's even though we do have a recipe for it

Oh and the other thing that bugs me is when people ask for an Italian Soda! Grr we don't have a recipe for that nor do we have syrups that would taste good
in one!
