Join us as we explore the drinks from Starbucks secret menu and provide you with a detailed guide on how to order them. Whether it's a rare treat or just satisfying a bit of curiosity, you'll be well-equipped with this insider knowledge.
STARBUCKS SECRET MENU
It's important to understand that there is no official Starbucks secret menu. Instead, customers and baristas have created their secret menu items by modifying the regular menu. These drinks are not listed on the menu, and baristas are not trained to prepare them.
Starbucks offers thousands of drink combinations using available ingredients. Consider ordering from the secret menu to try something different from the usual latte or cappuccino.
How to order from the secret menu at Starbucks?
To ensure your order is made correctly, it's best to provide your barista with a recipe for a secret menu item instead of just its name. Starbucks baristas are not trained on these drinks. So, be sure to have the recipe ready when you order.
1. Size
Specify the size of your drink as per Starbucks sizes - short, tall, grande, venti, or Trenta. It will assist the barista in selecting the appropriate cup and notating any adjustments to the drink. Refer to the Starbucks drink sizes guide for clarity.
2. Base drink
It is a drink from the regular menu that can be customized.
3. Substitutions
In this field, you can make any necessary substitutions, such as using milk instead of water.
4. Additions and toppings
Add-ons such as extra hot, whipped cream, and caramel drizzle should be added at the end.
