A Target employee who works inside the location’s Starbucks has been fired for posting an “appalling” video online about how to make a “Blue Lives Matter” drink with “bleach.”
The since-deleted TikTok video showed the unidentified employee holding a Starbucks cup that has “Blue Lives Matter” written on the side at the coffee shop inside the retailer in Nora, Indiana, news station WISH reported.
In the clip, she explained how to make the concoction, saying, “First, we’re going to start with bleach.”
“Going to add ice because, you know, cops love ice,” she said, appearing to reference the acronym for US Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
“In a cold foam pitcher, we’re going to add more bleach, a little blood of innocent black men,” she continued, as a song titled “All I Want for Christmas Is a Few Dead Cops” played in the background.
Starbucks declined to comment, noting that Target employs the staffers who work in the location, WTHR reported.
Target said the employee has been axed and slammed the video as “appalling and unacceptable.”
“We don’t tolerate this behavior at Target, want all guests to be treated with respect and have terminated the team member who was responsible,” the company said.
The company added that it doesn’t believe the concoction was served to a guest — nor was actual bleach used, only milk and water.
“We’re deeply sorry for this disturbing video, which TikTok has removed based on the platform’s guidelines,” the company said.
