I just heard about it on the radio yesterday and immediately wanted to try it.

The way they described it was strawberry & acai puree, coconut milk & crushed strawberries Chat Icon

Apparently you just ask for the Strawberry Acai Refresher and sub the water for coconut milk. Strawberries are already included.

nothing at Starbucks sounds good to, plus, my rant, they don't know their own products. I get different answers at every store

I've had success ordering off the "secret menu" but only when I've specifically showed them the recipe. Truth is that they'll make you anything you want as long as you can tell them how to make it.

There is no secret menu. There are modifications and substitutions but the people who work there aren't trained on some top-secret additional menu. People getting annoyed because someone who works at Stabucks or any other place and doesn't know what you are talking about when you say "secret pink drink" is ludicrous. Tell them what you want and they will make it. Chat Icon

Right?! Preach! People are ridiculous. Ordering a secret drink, not even knowing what it is, then getting mad the workers don't know either Chat Icon Chat Icon

No bc starbucks is annoying. I just want a regular coffee, milk and sugar and I don't like to have to know secret codes words, italian or any other sort of uncommon language/procedure to just get a cup of coffee, LOL.

This secret menu thing is case and point.

If you offer a specialty drink, put it on the menu and don't make me be a PI to figure out how to order it.

Im cranky when I stop for coffee, bc I need coffee, cranky and complicated ordering just make me more cranky. Chat Icon

I could be wrong, but I never thought the "secret menu" thing was really their fault.

I always figured it was some Starbucks aficionado with too much time on their hands who posted about the different possible drink combinations on social media.

I don't drink regular coffee - I am a latte/espresso type person - but I've picked it up there for other people and if you ask for "regular coffee" they'll understand what that means and give you what I think is called a Pike.

The pink thing sounds way too sweet to me.

My boss has no clue how to order Starbucks and refuses to order the "proper" way. So whenever we go in there he just says I'll take a medium regular coffee.
They know what he means!
