Here is some English from a cup sleeve of Starbucks Coffee House.

1.This sleeve is made from 60% post-consumer fiber.

What does the underlined phrase mean?

2. Caution:very hot
Decaf \ Milk \ Shots \ Custom \ Syrup \ Drink

What do"shots", "Custom", "Drink" mean in the context of a coffee cup sleeve respectively?


Thanks

Jason

Post-consumer fiber = fiber that has been reclaimed from a recycling program after initial use by consumers.

I am not a fan of Starbucks, but shots, Custom and Drink are most likely to be things that may be in their containers.

If you check their website, it seems they offer canned drinks called Doubleshots, Custom usually means "made to order" and of course, a drink is a liquid consumed as refreshment or nourishment.
