In most cases, Baristas won’t recognize what Strawberry Cheesecake Frappuccino is, and it’s not their fault. They might be the ones behind the counter crafting your drinks, but they don’t memorize the 51+ refreshments inside the so-called “secret menu”.

But it’s not too late, just give them the step-by-step instructions on how it is done. They are trained to customize drinks according to each customer’s preference, so giving them the necessary ingredients would help.

The sizing will vary depending on what type of drink you ordered but most people would pick Grande. That’s where we’ll base our measurements below.

Tell your barista this, “A glass of grande with strawberries and milk that serves as the base. Top it off with 3 pumps of the creme base, 2 scoops of vanilla, 3 pumps of white mocha syrup, and 2 pumps of cinnamon dolce syrup. That’ll be all.”

You can also follow our table above showing the different measurements for Tall and Venti drinks. Just screenshot this post and hand it over to your barista. They’ll have it prepared in no time.
