Drinks that lure you in with delicious desire

Working at a coffee shop is an incredible experience. Helping the customers, making their drinks, learning about coffee. All of these things is what makes me love the environment so much. But my absolute favorite thing, is seeing what crazy things I can put together and make taste good.
Since I've been behind the cafe bar for a couple years now I've been able to come up with some pretty crazy drinks. Every drink was crafted with a story behind it. Whether a customer out the idea in our heads, my coworkers were getting rowdy or I was bored and thought "hey what would this taste like". And from all of this my personal secret menu was born. I will be sharing with you all of my favorites and be telling you how to make them. The recipes will all be in venti form:
Crack Apple Spice (Hot or Iced)
5 Pumps of Cinnamon Dolce
Apple Juice (Steamed or Iced)
3 Shots of Blonde Espresso
Caramel Drizzle on Top
If any of you are well versed in the Starbucks menu then you will recognize this as a Caramel Apple Spice but with a little bit of added crack (espresso). This is my absolute favorite drink that I like to call my own. It all started when my love for apple juice needed spiced up. So I enjoyed the Caramel Apple Spice, then decided I needed something more. This developed into my bizarre yet delightful drink. I think everyone should try it because all though it seems outrageous it is something you can't put down.
Mad Chai (Iced)
2 Pumps of Vanilla
2 Pumps of Toffee Nut
Chai (Normal Pumps)
Almond Milk
3 Shots of Blonde Espresso
This little guy is another favorite of mine. If you enjoy chai and like them dirty, then definitely add this to your order arsenal. Toffee nut is one of my favorite flavors to put in my chai because I think it complements the chai as well as the almond milk. I always make my coworkers craft this chai for me on my days off. Customers started seeing me order it and asked what I was ordering. That is when I decided to call it Mad Chai, because of my name.
Snow Cone Refresher
Strawberry Acai Refresher
White Tea
2 Pumps of Raspberry
No Water
What tastes better on a hot summer day than a snow cone? A Starbucks snow cone. Most people aren't aware of the raspberry flavor that Starbucks has to offer its customers. It's one of their best kept secrets. Well I'm here to let you know it tastes good in just about anything, but especially my Snow Cone Refresher. It is unbelievably strong though so adjust the pump amounts as you would like but I would say no more than two in a venti for perfect snow cone flavor.
There you have it. The first three secret menu items from yours truly. I hope you all enjoy them and leave a comment below if you try them. I'd love to know your thoughts! Don't forget that all these recipes can be changed based on your personal desires so adjust accordingly.
Sincerely, Siren
