Starbucks now says that time-stamped footage from the store at 6332 N. Northwest Highway does not show any of its workers writing that message. Instead, the note appears “to have been added after the beverage was handed off, likely by someone else,” a spokesperson told Block Club.


Garretson wrote that a relative, whom she later identified as her mother-in-law, ordered the Mint Majesty tea with two honeys — an order known to be Kirk’s favorite drink — from the Starbucks. When the order was completed, the cup had “Loser” written on it, Garretson said.


“I’m talking 5 p.m. today, I want some form of action to the employee that represents this business that wrote ‘Loser’ on my mother’s cup,” the man, who is not seen on-camera, can be heard saying in the video, which was posted Wednesday.

“We’re looking for not corporate bureaucracy. I want immediate accountability; and if not, I will have this whole intersection lined with patriots today, I’m not even joking,” the man told a Starbucks employee.

What an emotional response jesus. Guy sounds like a loser.

      You mean after first hearing about this guy like a week ago you didn’t do a deep dive into his life and find out everything about him like a normal person would?

    If Kirk was a left wing activist, Fox News would be all over that drink.

    “Who orders a tea with some honey - a mint tea at that - at Starbucks? Is he not an alpha male? Why is his drink not a strong coffee like any real American man. Tells you everything you need to know”

    Lol grifters trying to grab power and influence via his death, so pathetic. Orders of magnitudes worse than people making memes about Kirk’s death.

    People seem to have missed an important point: that was mint tea with honey. Granted, I’ve never tried it, but that sounds like a nasty combination.

      Honey is frequently added to herbal and green teas of all kinds, including mint. I’m sure there are even people who like it in black tea though I don’t know any.

        I’ve only ever used it in black teas, and I’m pretty sure that’s common to do. At the end of the day it’s just a sweetener and can be used in any tea you’d add sugar to.
