The Starbucks empire is one of the most powerful food and beverage brands in the world. Millions of people regularly hit up their nearest Starbucks for their favorite drinks. If you’re a Starbucks fan, you almost certainly know there’s a very extensive Starbucks secret menu. It has all sorts of drinks your barista will be able to make for you if you ask for them.

Official secret menu vs. customer creations?

Most of the best Starbucks secret menu items are customer creations that go viral thanks to social media. While baristas are likely aware of most of the most popular selections, they’re not official unlisted drinks offered by Starbucks. That said, the number of these customer creations that have become hugely popular is massive, and baristas are prepared for customers to come in with their drink ideas.

The most popular Starbucks secret menu items

You can order just about anything at Starbucks—and people do. Here are a few examples of some of the most popular creations from the Starbucks secret menu:

• Cotton Candy Frappuccino: A sugary, non-caffeinated menu item that’s popular among young people—and people who need a sugar fix. This drink features vanilla bean Frappuccino with raspberry syrup, and when mixed it features a bright pink and white color that very much resembles cotton candy.
• Butterbeer Frappuccino: For all you Harry Potter enthusiasts out there, the Butterbeer Frap is a grande crème Frappuccino with 100 percent milk, three pumps of caramel syrup, three pumps of toffee nut syrup and caramel drizzled on top.
• Baby Yoda: The Baby Yoda Frap became popular in the wake of the success of the Disney+ show The Mandalorian. It’s a bright green color, made possible by its Matcha Green Tea Frappuccino base. The drink features caramel, whipped cream and caramel ribbon crunch crunchies.
• Cap’n Crunch Berry Frappuccino: Another popular custom Frap, this one tastes just like Crunch Berries, for those of you who enjoyed that breakfast cereal as kids (or adults). Order a strawberry and crème frap, then ask for one pump each of caramel, hazelnut and toffee syrup, then add whipped cream on top.
• Undertow: Need a quick jolt of energy in the morning to help you get on the move? Get a few pumps of your favorite syrup in an espresso cup, then add milk and two shots of espresso and down it all quickly. That’s sure to give you some energy that will last a while, along with some delicious flavor!
• Dirty Chai: If you love chai tea flavor, this is a beverage you’ll enjoy either hot or cold. Ask for a chai latte plus a shot of espresso. It will give you a bit of a booster with your latte to wake you up, and also tastes great.

This is a far, far cry from the full list of popular customer creations to come from Starbucks. A quick search online will yield hundreds of custom drinks—most a popular take on something off the regular or seasonal menu. Starbucks is a playground of customization options, so don’t be afraid to tweak things on a recipe you like!

How to order from the hidden menu

Most of these listed menu items (as well as other Starbucks secret menu items) are common knowledge among baristas. That said, they’ll still likely ask you to describe what’s in the drink so they can be sure to make it properly. Prepare to give instructions for your secret menu drink.
