Starbucks Baristas Wish You Would Stop Ordering The 'Medicine Ball' - Tasting Table
Briefly

Starbucks baristas express frustration over the popularity of the 'medicine ball' drink, often attracting sick customers who risk spreading illness in the store.
Despite its appeal as a personal remedy, the 'medicine ball' drink, a mixture of honey mint citrus tea, has no real medicinal properties according to staff.
To avoid confusion and the potential backlash from customers, baristas recommend ordering it by its actual name, honey mint citrus tea, instead of the misleading nickname.
Homemade versions of the 'medicine ball' can be more beneficial, as they allow for real ingredients and avoid reliance on sugary syrups.
