The clip shows the making of an order for a person named 'Charlie'. It had a long bill attached to it which detailed the exact ingredients to be used in the making of the drink. "Today I'm gonna be making a Starbucks secret menu item," said the Starbucks worker Patricia Calpo in the background of the video. She then narrated the entire summary of ingredients that she used to prepare the order.
Patricia started off the bizarre drink by adding blueberries, brown and white sugar, agave syrup and honey to the cup. Then, she proceeded to add malt powder, matcha powder and even chocolate chips. This was followed up by other elements such as strawberry, dried fruits, and kiwi. Further, espresso and black tea were both added to the weird Starbucks drink. Then came the juices such as mango, dragon fruit, lemonade and kiwi juice. She pours all this in a shaker along with some ice. The drink was finally topped with frothy cream, caramel drizzle, mocha syrup and then handed to her co-worker for serving!
Reddit users could not help but express their disgust on seeing this horrible drink. Several of them said that this mishmash of ingredients was the stuff that nightmares were made of. "Should have kept this menu a secret," commented one user while another wrote, "I hate when baristas have to do this."
