Most people don’t know the Starbucks ordering tips, just order like this next time!

Every time I go to Starbucks and look at the menu on the wall, my mind goes blank. When I look at the eager eyes of my Starbucks partners and the people queuing behind me, I feel extremely anxious and embarrassed...

Today, the editor has summarized a complete guide to ordering at Starbucks for you , and will teach you how to master the Starbucks menu!

What you need to know before entering the store

❶Cup type

Many friends are used to ordering small, medium, and large cups when ordering food. In fact, in China, the conventional ones are Tall (medium cup), Grande (large cup), and Venti (extra large cup).

If you don't know the cup shape, it's easy to think that a medium cup will become a small cup, and a super large cup will become a medium cup.

When ordering coffee, a medium cup usually comes with one shot of espresso by default, while a large and extra large cup both come with two shots of espresso, so the extra large cup just has a little more water or milk, which feels like a loss!

❷A cool way to order food

1. Although stores now generally use paper cups by default, you can choose a mug for dining in, or bring your own cup (a thermos or anything else will do, the key point is that you can save 2 yuan by bringing your own cup)!

2. For caffeinated drinks, you can choose low-caffeine coffee beans (decaf), or you can buy decaffeinated drinks.

3. You can also choose the strength of the coffee. If you want it stronger, you can ask the waiter to add an extra serving of espresso (each additional serving of espresso costs 4 yuan!).

4. You can also choose the flavor of the syrup. For example, you can replace the vanilla syrup in the vanilla latte with other flavors, such as hazelnut, almond, or caramel (but there will be a charge~).

5. In addition to the default milk, you can also use soy milk, skim milk, or half-full-fat and half-skim milk for the dairy products used in making coffee.

6. You can even request less foam in latte, more cream in mocha, more milk in cappuccino, and even the temperature of the milk.

7. Tell your partner all the above requirements at once when ordering, which saves unnecessary conversations when ordering, and you can also pretend to be cool: "I want a cup of latte here, low-caffeine, single strength, almond, made with skim milk, extra hot, medium."

All "liuleng" requirements

Partners can write it down on the cup~

What's on the menu?

❶Coffee

Espresso : It is the basis of other coffees. The portion is very small, 23ml for a single shot and 45ml for a double shot.

Americano : Espresso + water

Coffee of the Week : Starbucks changes its coffee beans every week. Coffee of the Week is actually espresso made from the beans of the week, which is purer than American coffee. You can add milk for free, and the amount of milk is up to you, but heating the milk costs extra!

Cappuccino : espresso + milk + milk foam. Ratio: 1:1:1

Latte : espresso + milk + milk foam. Ratio: 1:2:1

Caramel Macchiato : espresso + milk + milk foam. Finally, pour caramel sauce on it. Caramel Macchiato has more milk foam than latte.

Mocha : espresso + milk + mocha sauce. Top with fresh cream.

❷Tea

Iced Cranberry Blackcurrant Tea

Lemon tea : a little sweet. (To be honest, it’s a bit of a rip-off…)

Black tea latte and matcha latte : These two drinks do not contain caffeine. Many people think that latte is coffee. In fact, latte means "fresh milk" in Italian, so coffee latte is milk and coffee; black tea latte and matcha latte are milk with black tea or matcha added. Starbucks will add syrup to these two drinks, so you can ask your partner to control the sweetness and tea concentration according to your own preferences.

(I recommend a hidden menu: black tea latte is actually milk tea. Friends who like Earl Grey tea may want to change black tea to Earl Grey and try Earl Grey latte!)

❸Frappuccino

The common feature of Frappuccino is that it is sweet, because they all need to be mixed with Starbucks' unique Frappuccino syrup. Generally, two or more syrups are needed, and cream is also needed. If you don't like sweet, you can use half sugar.

Matcha Frappuccino : It looks good, so many friends who don’t like drinking coffee but love taking photos like to try it.

Vanilla Frappuccino, Mango Passion Fruit Tea Frappuccino : Vanilla-flavored Frappuccino with whipped cream; Mango passion fruit juice with fine ice whipped to make Frappuccino.

Mocha Cocoa Chip Frappuccino : This Frappuccino contains caffeine, cocoa chips are added with cocoa particles, and chocolate sauce is added on top of the cream, which is relatively the sweetest.

Caramel Espresso Frappuccino : This is also a caffeinated Frappuccino, with syrup drizzled on top of the coffee Frappuccino.

(To be honest, the only word I can describe Frappuccino is “sweet”)

Hide Menu

In fact, the hidden menu is achieved by changing the sweetness, adding or changing caramel, cream, etc.

Change the sweetness : no sugar or half sugar

Flavored syrup : vanilla, hazelnut, etc. A cup of ordinary latte with hazelnut syrup becomes a hazelnut latte, and adding caramel becomes a caramel latte~ (but it costs extra...)

More coffee : Add a shot of espresso

Add or reduce fresh cream : For those who like cream, remember to ask for more cream when ordering! I heard that you can also order a cup of cream, which seems to cost 7 yuan!

Change the tea bag : You can replace the black tea latte with an Earl Grey tea bag and it will become an Earl Grey latte. You can also try Tieguanyin!

Choice of milk : whole milk, skim milk, soy milk

❹Desserts and snacks

Croissants

The croissants are crispy and delicious, and slightly salty. There are also hazelnut croissants, ham and cheese croissants, and croissants. Hazelnut croissants are also one of the desserts that many girls like to order. You can ask your partner to heat it with butter or jam, it's delicious~

Tuna Crisps

I highly recommend the tuna crisps! At 18 yuan, it is a good value for money item. The tuna filling is generous and the skin is crispy. Great~

Muffins

Starbucks muffins are also very cost-effective, 15 yuan, especially the chocolate muffins! They taste even better after heating!

Cake

Napoleon, tiramisu, various cheesecakes, rich chocolate cakes, etc. are all very sweet pastries, suitable to be paired with coffee to neutralize the sweetness.

Blueberry Cheesecake and Chocolate Cake

Blueberry cheese is not that sweet~

Sandwiches, Panini

Starbucks has many kinds of lunch items, including bacon, lettuce, and eggs; although they look very tempting in the promotional photos, every time I see the real thing, I feel that they are lifeless.

I wonder if heating it up would help?

Salads

A small cup of fruit salad costs more than 10 yuan, which is a rip-off... But the smoked chicken salad tastes okay, but the portion is not very big~

This is the complete guide to ordering at Starbucks~

Next time, why not try to make your own drink~
