How to Order a Medicine Ball on the Starbucks App: A Step-by-Step Guide
Ordering your favorite Starbucks drink just got easier! This guide will walk you through ordering a Medicine Ball, that popular wellness drink, directly through the Starbucks app. While the Starbucks app doesn't directly list "Medicine Ball," knowing what to order makes it simple to get this invigorating beverage.
Understanding the Medicine Ball
Before we dive into the app ordering process, let's quickly recap what makes a Medicine Ball a Medicine Ball. It's essentially a customized combination of two existing Starbucks drinks: a Passion Tango Lemonade and a Hot Jade Citrus Mint Tea. The specific ratio varies by preference, but the key is understanding the components to replicate it successfully.
Ordering Your Medicine Ball via the Starbucks App
Here's how to seamlessly order your Medicine Ball using the Starbucks mobile app:
Step 1: Open the App and Navigate to "Order"
Launch the Starbucks app and tap on the "Order" button. This usually takes you directly to the beverage customization screen.
Step 2: Select "Tea" then "Jade Citrus Mint Tea"
You'll want to begin with the tea as the base. Choose "Hot" for the Jade Citrus Mint Tea. This will be the foundation of your Medicine Ball.
Step 3: Customize Your Tea
This is where you start building your Medicine Ball. You'll need to add the Passion Tango Lemonade. The app's customization options usually allow you to add other drinks or syrups. While it might not be labelled as "Passion Tango Lemonade", you can add it by:
- Looking for Lemonade: Some versions of the app may allow a direct add-in option for Lemonade. If available, select "Passion Tango Lemonade" (or a similar option if your region lists it differently). If not listed directly, you can add the components individually.
- Adding Components: Find the options for adding fruit juices and/or syrups. Passion Tango Lemonade contains the flavors of passion fruit and orange. Approximate this by adding the corresponding syrups or fruit juices available. Experimentation is key! Find a similar combination of sweet and tart fruit juices in the app's available options.
Step 4: Adjust the Quantities
This is crucial for achieving your perfect Medicine Ball. There's no single "right" ratio. It's all about personal preference. Experiment with different proportions of Jade Citrus Mint Tea and your added Passion Tango Lemonade-like mixture until you find the balance you enjoy most.
Step 5: Review and Submit Your Order
Once you've customized your drink to your liking, review your order details. Make sure everything is correct, including size and any other additions. Then, submit your order and proceed to payment.
Step 6: Pick Up Your Medicine Ball
Depending on your chosen pickup method, you can either pick up your Medicine Ball at your local Starbucks or have it delivered via a third party delivery service, if available.
Tips for Success
- Know Your App: The Starbucks app's interface can sometimes vary slightly depending on your location and the app version. Familiarize yourself with its customization options.
- Experiment: Don't be afraid to experiment with the ratios of tea and lemonade. Find the perfect balance for your taste buds.
- Alternative Approach: If you’re having difficulty replicating the Medicine Ball through the app’s customization features, consider creating two separate orders: one for the Hot Jade Citrus Mint Tea and another for the Passion Tango Lemonade. It might be slightly less convenient, but guarantees you get the correct components.
By following these steps, you can easily order your go-to wellness drink, the Medicine Ball, directly through the Starbucks app, saving you time and effort. Happy ordering!
