As a starbucks manager i'll explain why it is venti only. The energy drink itself comes preportioned in 12oz. We than add the entire 12oz to the venti cup, add ice and than top with tea. Because we are using a pre-set energy base the cup size needed to be venti to have space for the ice and the tea. The amount of ice is even less than we normally use. These drinks are given grande amount of ice measurement. So actually you are only consuming 12oz of energy drink which is equal to a tall.
I don’t know why these companies pushing energy drinks and refreshers . I’m not interested .I just want iced coffee . Even iced coffee I need to lay off and I’m not supposed to have it . Because of my thyroid problems.
I tried the melon burst and it was horrible to me. I couldn't handle the taste of it. I have not tried the others but I am sure they all taste the same.
I just got the Melon Burst because it sounded like I would love it and I do NOT! Your description is spot on "a confusing match up of tropical flavors... I would not buy this again" perfect description! 😭😭 it tastes like sugar free, off brand kool-aid with the stuff in the drink machine when it runs out mixed in. I'll stick to my latte moving forward because, NO...
After seeing your tragic experience with the energy drinks and everything, I'll only try the pesto sandwich! Maybe I should stick to the paradise drink if I want something with light caffeine and tropical flavor lol.
It seems like they are trying to copy dunkin. I've tried the dunkin' ones, but I wasn't a fan, so I won't be trying them. Thanks for the review before I went tomorrow. I saw the sandwich, and I was curious, so since you gave it a 10/10, I definitely want to try it.
@AriaConnor I got the egg pesto and mozzarella sandwich from Starbucks today. Plus, I got the butter cake cookie from crumbl cookies today since they are in the same shopping complex. I also got the non-dairy vanilla sweet cream cold brew with cinnamon Dolche sauce. I loved that, too. The cookie will be dessert tonight after dinner
@@AriaConnorProbably because the energy drinks are only one size and it’s be too time consuming to measure how much energy drink to put in each size. Probably have to use it all too once you open it
Starbucks just redeemed itself after the whole lavender debacle with the Summer I drinks lol. This entire Summer II drink line was so unnecessary. It's like they're trying to compete with Dunkin/Dutch Bros/Black Rock. Pretty soon they will try to minic certain items from Swig if they think dirty colas will sell in the AM for them.

Ahhh ok, good to know! Thanks so much for explaining I really appreciate it! Feel much better knowing it’s not just random lol 😁
You should try Potbelly new apple pie shake & cherry delight cookie
Oooh that sounds good!

I normally like the refreshers but I wasn’t a fan of these energy drinks
Because others like to try different things
They should just bring back cool line refresher. Ugh
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
A lot of the Starbucks have had to pull the non dairy cold foam due to issues with the Oatmilk.

Yeah totally agree, the flavor was just off. Not their best work lol
Try those energy drinks and they're awesome.

@@acrustysheep let me tell you, that pesto sandwich was AMAZING!! The energy drinks not so much lol I’d skip if I were you 😓
@@AriaConnor 100% I believe ya! Only sticking with my refreshers for now with the pesto sandwich (it looks so fresh too!)
I'm going to skip the drinks lol
lol I would! But the sandwich tho 😍😍😍
I tried Starbucks spark's energy drinks and it wasn't that great to me so Dunkin for the win with their spark'd energy drinks.

The sandwich was really good. I wasn’t expecting to like it so much

Wow! A four, I don't think I've ever seen you rate a drink so low. Thanks for taking the bullet for us. 😛
lol happy to take one for the team🤣
They dont have them in small thats crazy
Right?! I have no idea why they’re only available in Venti, makes no sense to me!

@aj_nav yeah that’s what someone else who works at Starbucks says. Makes sense
Not going to try these. They should bring the s’mores Frappuccino back and add new coffee flavors.

I lyk the melon bursts but my only complain is its taste lyk redbull energy drinks to me lol 😂🤣
