TikTok Is Left Stunned By An Alarming Starbucks Drink Order
By JUSTINA HUDDLESTON

Now that the Starbucks mobile app has made it easier to customize drink orders without ever having to look a barista in the eyes, it makes sense that baristas are annoyed by certain drink orders. Some are so eye-popping that even the most seasoned baristas can't help but be shocked.

One Starbucks barista took to TikTok to share a disturbing drink order, stating, "Every day this lady comes here and gets 20 espresso shots with five pumps of classic syrup." At $22.57 per day, this drink is not only expensive, but it also has triple the amount of caffeine that is recommended each day by health experts (creating a risk for seizures).

TikTok commenters' reactions ranged from concerned to comical, with one user quipping, "Y'all might want to start selling cardiac monitors too.” Whether looking at it from a financial or health perspective, there was one comment that seemed to sum things up: "Is she ok?"
