Customer orders Charlie Kirk’s Starbucks drink and finds a disturbing hate message — employee gets fired

A woman from Ohio, Autumn Perkins, experienced a disturbing incident at her local Starbucks when she ordered Charlie Kirk’s favorite drink on a Sunday evening. To her dismay, she found a derogatory phrase scrawled on her cup.

Living in Middletown, Perkins went to a Kroger-operated Starbucks for her order of mint majesty, sweetened with two packets of honey.

Upon receiving the drink, she was taken aback to see that an employee had inscribed “racist’s fav drink” on the cup.

“It’s time for people to stop this nonsense,” Perkins expressed to Fox News Digital.

Later, after discussing the matter with the store manager, she discovered the employee acknowledged writing the offensive note and was subsequently let go.

“I believe anyone who behaves in such a way should be dismissed,” Perkins mentioned, emphasizing that “actions have consequences.”

Perkins further stated, “I feel like Charlie stood for respect — we can have different viewpoints but still respect each other.”

“Respectful communication is essential for growth and understanding.”

Responding to the incident, a Starbucks representative shared this statement with Fox News Digital:

“Such behavior is unacceptable, and we uphold strict policies against negative messages to maintain a welcoming atmosphere. This particular Starbucks is licensed and operated by Kroger, and we understand that the associate involved was terminated by them.”

Kroger confirmed the termination of the employee in an email to Fox News Digital on Monday, stating, “This behavior does not represent the values we uphold at Kroger.”

Perkins noted that she often frequents Starbucks while traveling as it is widely available, but now plans to steer clear of the coffee chain.

“I will not spend another dime on Starbucks, and I intend to encourage my children and family members to do the same,” she concluded.
