Strangest order I've ever received
I am a barista at a pretty popular coffee shop, and we sell a lot of items that can be customized. Not everything is on the menu, and people often ask for extra modifications, such as adding a syrup or certain type of milk. If we have the ingredients, we are always able to make the change, but today somebody places an order that was stranger than anything I'd ever received. They asked for an iced coffee, but wanted us to add matcha into it. For those who are unaware, matcha is a type of tea that tastes very leafy, and it is very good on it's own, but not something I would usually pair with a coffee. 640
I made the drink for this customer, and afterwards I couldn't help but try it myself. I made a mini version, and I don't want to yuck anyone's yum, but this was the strangest combinations of flavors I've ever had. It wasn't bad per se, but definitely not something I would ever make for myself. When I gave the drink to the customer, she said it was amazing and I made it perfectly. I'm glad she liked it, but I can't think of how anybody would come up with that combination... 201
