starbucks explained: the caramel macchiato & frappuccino

[@carolinelabbott2451]

This helped a lot. I generally don't understand anything other than just tea/coffee, and my grown daughter just keeps spouting off all these strange names of drinks they like, some even from Starbucks. I now have a clearer idea what she has been talking about. Again thank you for this video.

[@MariaMarmora]

Of course!:) These drinks are like a foreign language ahah. Atleast when I first started that’s how I felt🙈

[@luigang._.2367]

not gonna lie this helped so much as a beginning barista at starbucks there’s really no visuals that help you remember what to put in these drink but by simply watching this video i’m understanding even more then i did before THANKS!

[@mikebiggs798]

I agree!! I have a clearly idea what all ingredients is going into these drinks because I didn't before.

[@awildavas6717]

How you doing at Starbucks?

coming up to my first year working at the green mermaid I'm surprised alot of people don't know what is in their drinks and the options they are open to. if I wasnt camera shy I'd make a video like this as well but glad you did and explained it really well. and please don't be shy to ask us baristas questions, we are happy to help and guide you through the different options and ways you can perfect your coffee 🤗

[@jimmynguyenvirgo]

They basically train you by hands on muscle memory. The amount of pumps for Iced and Hot drinks vary and they're not all the same amounts of pumps for each sized cups. They literally do not have small pictures and its ingredients mounted on employee walls like at normal restaurants/tea/boba tea/other coffee shops, they have it in this tiny booklet of the recipes, but on a busy day who actually has the time to get a ticket, look at the small recipe book and search for the correct drink, and then make the drink. You do all of those drinks with muscle memory so it's good for videos like these for baristas in training especially at starbucks for visual learning and actually having that imagery in our heads because hands on especially in a rushed environment isn't easy to learn and grasp as fast.

[@inezs.6335]

I just recently started drinking coffee after years and years of seemingly being the only grownup out in the world who didn't like coffee, but I've fallen in love with coffee! Ever since my coffee love story began all I want is to understand how to order coffee, understand the differences between them, and eventually learn how to make them at home. Your video has become an absolute favorite of mine! Thank you for sharing all this info!

[@jazlinc8607]

you’ve literally thought me more than my trainer. this video is so helpful thank you!

[@abigailmcgrath6622]

So helpful! The menu can be confusing and this will definitely help me order with confidence! :) Could you maybe make a video explaining steamers, flat whites, or refreshers? I love your channel! Your vlogs and videos are so relaxing!

[@anqi9234]

I like your videos! Especially I really like Starbucks’s caramel macchiato. If you wanted something hot, you can order a grande hot caramel macchiato with non fat milk, make it less sweet (or normal) because I always order with less sweet and if you want you can change the coffee into decaf/medium coffee or maybe double shot. It definitely taste really good 😊

[@MartwinShan]

i started work in Starbucks, and have no experience about coffee, or anything, but it's very curious for me to expand my skill being barista, thanks for sharing

I really hope the apple crisp macchiato comes back this fall!!!

My question is -- What is The Base ??

[@kingznqueenztv]

Coffee

[@zerocal76]

You are a good ad for Starbucks. I was iffy on getting some but now I'm even gonna get something I never get: a frap! 😀

[@Lucillevt4011]

the starbucks caramel macchiato is just the inverse to an espresso macchiato in the "coffee world" it's a latte macchiato with vanilla syrup and caramel drizzle. If I recall correctly there is a theory that my coworkers came up with and that is that starbucks didn't include the "latte" part in the name as to not confuse customers.

[@okay621]

Thank you for these vids!! A new coffee shop just opened up in my town but the nearest sbux is an hour away, now I can tell them how to make my fave drinks :)

[@miguelnunez2439]

Actually I started getting drinks from Starbucks recently after I saw your videos on your blog, and I really wish I can try the drinks you make.. I had the mocha cookie crumble Frappuccino and the ice brown sugar oatmilk shaken espresso and I ain’t like it, it didn’t tasted like nothing and the espresso makes me had a headache. 🤣

[@peachy4604]

oh my goodness! thank you so much, maria, for making this video! this is exactly what i asked for in your community post and im so glad that you were able to explain frappes so well! ive learned a lot so thank you. i was also going to ask, if i wanted a minty, peppermint frappuccino, would it be possible to order? as well as a fruit themed one. as in, what would i need to tell the barista if i wanted to order those drinks? if you could please let me know, i would greatly appreciate it! thank you for posting this amazing video! have a lovely day :) 🌻

[@shadsz9663]

Ok that was fun comparing caramel machiato to vanilla latte

[@BobbieGWhiz]

I used to work at an ice cream parlor scooping up lots of sugar and butter fat and covering it with syrups and whipped cream. Tasted delicious, but wasn’t all that healthy, but at least you didn’t consume it every day. But now with Starbucks, many people do. No amount of pretty, personable young baristas can cover that fact up.

[@ddiesel1836]

is that caramel sauce used by SB on their caramel of Macchiato? or is it Caramel Sundae Syrup?

[@Eli-fp8vp]

Thank you for this video ☕️ 🥰

[@mohammedaiyaad4546]

that main reason behind the milk thickness is actually the frappe syrup itself

[@pocahontas4583]

I remember the first time I had a Frappuccino it wasn’t made right and the texture was a bunch of big chunks of ice not blended correctly. I told someone I tried it and didn’t understand why people liked it so much and described the texture. They told me it’s not supposed to be like that. Had I not mentioned that to someone I would’ve never bought one again since someone messed it up my very first time.

I love the taste of coffee but can’t have caffeine, is there anyway I can order decaf coffees at Starbucks? If so how would I order ?(:

[@karlathemonkey]

Maybe you can make one explaining the difference between ice coffee and cold brews? I try to make my coffee at home and I noticed Starbucks sells both ice coffee and cold brews. Does it matter for my vanilla sweet cream cold brew?

[@missgorlll]

Ok im not a barista but I believe the coffee is just regular brew vs the cold brew is a concentrate meaning it was brewed in reg temp water for a number of hours and up to 24 hrs. eta if you want your vsccb to taste like Starbucks yes use cold brew Also if you want to make your own cold brew- this is what works for me 1 cup of coarse dark roast coffee grounds to 5-6 cups of water and let it steep for 18-24 hours

[@karlathemonkey]

@@missgorlll thank you! I’ll try that!

[@roberttaylor9628]

Thank you, Maria.

[@Pita33]

I usually get a caramel macchiato but I just don’t like how much milk they carry and even when I ask for less milk it’s still too much for my liking. What would you recommend? Would that be like a shaken espresso?

[@loretta2539]

no, shaken espresso still has the same amount of milk. I suggest getting dopios over ice and say splash of milk. it's somewhat an alternative but it's basically how we can build your drink to your liking. it's where you can say how much milk you want.

[@Pita33]

@@loretta2539 perfect thank you!

[@sydneymcwilliams1248]

A shaken espresso does not or should not have the same amount of milk as a latte if made correctly. It does have more espresso though. If your getting a venti it’s going to have four shots of espresso, ice, and whatever syrup in the shaker. That’ll be shaken and poured into the cup. It should have a thick layer of foam from shaking it. Then it’ll be topped with about an inch of milk. Hope that helps better explain the drink :)

[@SairaSaadTheNikonGirl]

what is the base? any idea to understand, like what base is made of ? and I.have ome question more that ,when I bleded coffee with the ice n milk in my vitamix with much ice,everything was thick but there was little coffee or liquid at the bottom that was separated from slush, i figured that i forgot to add sugar now will try this again,any tips you wana share plx help thanks i was making caramel Frappuccino at home,that i saw at Starbucks while the guy was preparing thanks

Hello! Thank you for the help with the frappe! My favorite order is a white chocolate frappe with chocolate chips. My question is if there is dairy in a cream frappe. I am lactose intolerant so I usually just sub normal milk with almond milk. Would there be any other dairy in a cream frappe?

[@erine2339]

Cream frapps are just frapps w/o coffee. You can change the milk to your liking, but some of the sauces have dairy in it. One of the ingredients in the white chocolate sauce is nonfat condensed milk.

[@loretta2539]

yes you can change the milk option for ANY drink, including fraps, creme base frap.

[@dimitri2548]

Yeah the whipped cream lol

I get the same coffee frap with extra ice , 2% milk , and 3 pumps of liquid cane sugar every single day… and I stg every single day there is a different person making it and some of them don’t know what they are doing at all!! It will be absolutely perfect one day and then the next it taste like perfume (if that makes sense) and the ice will not be completely blended… I’m like look u can tell when u have blended it or not , it doesn’t take a genius to see there’s huge chunks of ice in it… and they always look like it’s a problem to remake it right and I’m like well this is a $7 drink so I expect a $7 drink! I just wish I could get it right and exactly the same every single day. 😭😭 what are they doing wrong when it tastes funny like that?

[@kevinmckenna2559]

Why no measurements for each ingredient ????

[@btrflyleggs1428]

Can u explain the difference between a flat white and a latte

[@rennebright5886]

So I'm not sure if it's categorised differently in American Starbucks, but coming from someone who works in an Australian McDonald's (nowhere near the same thing I know lol but still) - a flat white is just an espresso shot topped up with creamy, textured milk. With a flat white we foam the milk slightly so that the drink is topped up with about 1cm of foam.

[@lizsalinas885]

This is so cool! I wish they had a menu for diabetics! I hate going and asking if they can make me a low carb Frappuccino and they always tell me no. I always leave so disappointed.

[@MariaMarmora]

Thanks:) and yeah, I get it! They used to have a Light Base years ago, which was considered the healthier version of the bases. I love frappuccinos but never have them because of the sugars and stuff. I haven’t come up with a good solution to consume frappuccinos in a better way:/
