Mashed cold weather: grande hot white chocolate mocha with only 3 pumps white mocha .... triple shot. Hot weather: Grande nitro cold brew with sweet cream & vanilla.
Yessss this is sooo true. I actually didn't try the iced coffee until recently, when someone in drive thru left the line before paying, and I also think the cold brew is soooo much better than their iced coffee.
@@jessicawright1664 Its also in a way healthier. Since the grounds aren't heated up, it makes it about 70% less acidic and naturally sweeter and is full of antioxidants
@@naclandpepper I think it depends on the store because I've heard some people say one free drink per shift, but at my store I don't think there is a limit on how many free drinks I can get during a shift. Some days I've gotten 4-5 drinks if I've worked a really long shift. I think the only catch is that I just can't give my free drinks to others.
As a former employee of Starbucks, I can say with certainty that you should always say “no water” when ordering cold brew bc they water it down. As for the nitro, if it was served as a venti it’d still have foam, but they don’t want to serve that much in a single serving because it’s absolutely loaded with caffeine.
The nitro actually has the same amount of caffeine as normal cold brew. It’s just served without ice so you technically get more “caffeine per cup” but it’s the same coffee either way just the caffeine levels are altered without ice
@@judysalt3698 but no...I've been ordering nitro coffee for years. Cold brew injected with nitrogen for a smoother taste... Learned how to make it in Guatemala out of all places
At starbucks, our morning blend was so high in caffiene, we discouraged people from ordering a venti because people often don’t know just how much caffiene they’re ordering, and with over 400mg of caffiene, its the #1 drink on the entire starbucks menu with the most caffiene.
As a specialty coffee barista with a specialty coffee association degree level 3, I can tell you that nitro coffee doesn't require at all a big glass to form a nice creamy foam and some active, balanced bobbles. Cream always depends on the amount vegetal oil naturally present in the coffee. In case of nitro coffee, it's the actual pressure/nitrogen gas ratio that is the most important. The gas is the biggest cost that you have to take into account while making it, per pour. So the bigger the glass, the bigger the profit. No technical BS.
Um mm... For the cost of 1 cold brew there, you can make about 5 at home... Just don't expect it to taste anywhere close to the Starbucks drink without proper training on coffee.
Pure Starbucks ad! I feel blessed for being lucky to live in Italy and enjoy the taste of fresh coffee from espresso to cappuccino and macchiato with as low as 80 cents to one € and faster than any franchise brand and environment-friendly for not using plastic or paper cup!
With these fabulous CoVid priced flights I've been considering hopping a flight to Italy for a good cup of coffee . . . and one of those fabulous old fashioned hand pull espresso contraptions. A moka pot is cheaper, yes, but Italy has lace as well so... So many reasons to go to Italy.
Another reason why we don’t sell any size larger than grande in our nitro cold brew is because you can actually OD on the amount of caffeine that a venti nitro cold brew holds
PSA coming from a SB partner, a venti nitro cold brew will not lose most of it’s initial froth- it’s so heavily caffeinated that it tops the daily recommended caffeine intake. If you care that much just buy two.
I worked there for four a d half years, it would be good to note that most hot coffees (aside from Starbucks) don't have nearly as much caffeine content than pike regardless of type of bean or roast profile.
The thing about Starbucks is that they have you to believe that they are the standard for coffee, which is why too many people depend on them to get their coffee facts, when in reality, they are far from it. Any barista (not Starbucks barista) will tell you that from the three, cold brew has more caffeine than iced coffee and lattes, and as for the beans that Starbucks uses for their coffee, it’s literally the exact same thing that McDonald’s and Dunkin Donuts use for their coffee, even if they buy it from Guatemala and Kenya, because they outsource it from those countries when it is at its cheapest price, and when the prices go up, they opt for another country. This is why you are actually getting a real bang for your bucks if you just simply get your coffee at McDonald’s over Starbucks, but hey, some people will never understand I guess
I'm sorry but I highly disagree, Dunkin Donuts and Starbucks don't taste anything alike. I understand if you don't like coffee let alone Starbucks but they do have legitimately good coffee and that's based on hundreds of people including baristas that don't even work at Starbucks
I actually spent .any months in Guatemala picking my own beans and learning to be a barista. I concur, I as a barista, can confirm we give you way better stuff at our own shop
@@romariochiquillo3140 that's highly incorrect, coffee comes in all different tastes, the beans are definitely different at the more expensive places as opposed to one's where you can get coffee for a dollar
Wouldn't you want a fine grind for a pour over so it absorbs the water for a minute before filtering through? I'm just curious. Kinda new to venturing into coffee and am REALLY interested. Lemme know your reasoning, and thanks!
It will "filter through" so slow, if at all, that you will end up with overly extracted crap. Look up James Hoffman channel, he has some great videos on coffee.
Honestly, its really easy and cheaper to just make it at home. As a barista, I often am the one making all the batches of cold brew at work. It's taught me how easy it is to make it at home. It's really just the time it has to sit to steep/brew that's annoying. (If anyone does read this and decides to try to make it themselves and wants to use Starbucks coffee, I recommend making it with the Komodo Dragon Blend. I get free coffee every week at work and so far out of the ones I've tried, that one seems to taste the best.)
@@shawnriv9 I'm still working on perfecting the ratio at home myself, but so far I think the standard advise all the Starbucks bags have written on them for making drip coffee (2tbsp per 1 cup) works pretty well. I'll update you if I ever find a better ratio though!
Jessica Wright but you realise people prefer Starbucks (for instance) because of other reasons right? Have you ever taken an economics class? The reason is because for a lot of people time is much more important and since starbucks is almost anywhere and they’re rather quick when serving you can easily get one on your way to work/college without spending too much time.
I dont drink Starbucks coffee drank it 1 time its nasty cant stand Starbucks big I drink Starbucks look at me I am a idiot liberal Democrat baby killer
If coffee is made right you don't need to add anything and if it was made poorly nothing will help it. Make my coffee Dark and Black and Hot. Thank You
Depends on the coffee beans as well. Better coffee beans means better tasting coffee. Also, coffee doesn't have to be hot to be good. It's actually very bad for the taste of the coffee if it's too hot. Put it this way, if it's good when it's cold, then it's good coffee. If it needs to be served piping hot, then it's pretty much bad coffee as the hotness mutes the bad coffee flavor. Notice how Starbucks serves their coffees where you can just drink it even when it's hot. Now compare this to a gas station coffee where it's hotter than the sun and is only good for about 5 - 10 minutes as once it's cooled down, it's horrible.
@@saysoun752 first I use good beans and a French Press when I make coffee. bad coffee beans makes it bad cold or hot. Also on a cold day nothing better than a hot drink, coffee, hot chocolate, or cider. and on a hot day it is the same thing. there is a Psychological effect on the body that will make you feel cooler when you drink a hot drink. the idea of cold coffee is a personal choice, not mine. so you enjoy your cold coffee. By the way when I buy coffee I will put it into my insulated cup from Stanley and it will stay hot much longer.
@@davidbreazeale7257 First, I never implied that you used bad coffee as I'm just responding to how you stated if coffee is made right or made poorly, which is just a small part of how coffee tastes. It's way more important on which coffee you use more than how you make it. As far as hot or cold coffee goes, it's a choice but I never said it wasn't. All I said was of the coffee is good cold, then it'll be good hot but the same can't be said of bad coffee as bad coffee will only taste good if it's hot and will taste like ass if it's cold. As for me, I do drink it both hot and cold and I drink it black regardless if it's bad or good coffee as sugar and cream ruins the taste of coffee and I'm a person who likes the taste of coffee. I also drink my teas unsweetened and can drink drinks such as Perrier with no problem as I love Perrier and other carbonated beverages.
@@saysoun752 how coffee is made can make a difference in taste. just as choice of beans makes a difference. I am just an old fashion guy and stuck in my ways. but good coffee is one thing I don't compromise with. I am not a Perrier guy, prefer my Dr Pepper, lol. enjoy your coffee.
This is an advertisement for Starbucks! It’s so easy to make cold brew at home for less than a dollar. Buy highest quality coffee you like. But 1/2 spoons of coffee it in mason jar with water. Shake, and let it over night. Boom. Strain and serve. There you go saved you $5 and time to Starbucks.
it's literally just plain coffee they steep in water. The prices they charge is pretty insane for what it is but I can see why they charge those prices.... it's really good. So good that many people might stop buying their other specialty drinks they normally sell at a premium if the cold brew cost about the same as regular brew coffee.
It's not just plain coffee. There is a specific bean used for only cold brew at Starbucks. The process of making it takes hours. It's a LOT more complicated and time consuming to make versus regular plain coffee.
@@escape2064 I mean it's plain coffee beans, no? There's nothing particularly rare about them other than selecting a certain type of bean for the cold brew. They grind them like they do regular coffee then just steep in water for a day then store in a container. It's not some luxury item. It's plain coffee. The labor is concentrated in the preparation of the batch rather than the labor being spread out across the entire day preparing hot coffee multiple times. So the labor aspect likely is similar between the two.
@@RavenousFallen yes that's true but the cold brew beans are ground on a specific setting and steeped in water at a certain ratio for 20 hours. Then at Starbucks it is pulled into cubed containers and then finally put into kegs, diluted with a certain amount of water. Not to mention all of these containers and kegs have to be thoroughly cleaned every day, and the used bags of cold brew can get extremely heavy to throw out. So it's a bit more complicated than brewing regular drip coffee which is reflected in the price. If you'd rather do it yourself then by all means you do you! Otherwise don't complain about the price 😁
Ya I work at Starbucks and the reason for not being able to get a Venti Nitro is because it is served without ice and that full amount of cold brew is to much caffeine for the average person. A regular venti cold brew would be servered with ice and would be far less if it had no ice like it’s counterpart.
Latham Maxwell no, like said in the video it would just ruin the integrity of the drink because the nitro would start “dying” as your pouring it if you poured a venti.
Lil D lol honestly I’ll say anything to a customer if it means that social interaction gets to end sooner. It does metabolize faster than normal cold brew and any coffee but even on sbux it says that a grande nitro is 280mg of caffeine while a grande pike is 310mg and a grande blonde roast is 360mg of caffeine. Honestly whatever tho, it ain’t really Matter. Sbux sells crappy coffee but it’s good compared to other places in the us.
You can get a cold brew pitcher from most housewares stores and make cold brew at home. You can also get a whipped cream dispenser and nitro cartridges, put your home cold brewed coffee in, shake for 30 seconds and you have nitro cold brew at home.
@@nicoleanastacia5808 sorry for the late reply I’m in the midst of moving cross country, truthfully the coffee may have a stronger taste so I would cut it with milk but no it won’t be bad as long as you keep it refrigerated till used.
@@musicianfriendly2005"Burnt" is relative. Starbucks' "medium" is more akin to a typical craft coffee dark. The reason starbucks does that is because they were the next big thing after folgers/ maxwell. So they went with huge production quantities roasted to hell and back, since that meant any distinctive characters -- including flaws -- in the beans would be gone, and it had a flavor similar to the older robusta beans. Essentially, it's cost saving and from their history/ brand expectations by now. Blonde is the only thing from them that isn't entire burnt to ashes.
To me it's less bitter than their basic coffee. Never was really a fan of starbucks coffee so i was pleasantly surprised by the CB. I even like they have it available at grocery stores tho it sells out alot. I also tried stok brand and trader joes version of cold brew and both have a cheap motel room coffee machine taste lol .
I've bought their cold brew 5 times and it tastes so bad I had to throw out each time. Honestly I found a nation wide shop that has it and it's delicious and addictive. I don't know the huge difference
and I made my own cold brew at home which was way dangerous because I actually stayed awake more than cold brew. I'm not sure if I'll make one again. I'm scared lol
Ma'am Peridot I have a question to you. I had Starbucks in Dubai something long name called Caffe Mocha Vanila frappe latte I tasted that why it is not sweetened? It only tastes like water with cream on top.
@@Maniacguy2777 Every Starbucks is different. How we make one drink in the US is going to be slightly different overseas. PLUS the ingredients may not even be from the same source/brand. That’s a question I cant really answer for you. But if it’s a frappechino, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was as sweet considering it consists of like 80-90% blended ice.
@@Maniacguy2777 depend on the size too. A grande only has like 2 shots, 3 pumps of mocha, 3 pumps vanilla, maybe a shot or two of milk/cream, and like 3 pumps of mixer (keeps water and ingredients from separating) to like a whole grande sized amount of ice.
@@darwinstevens810 I don't remember the name it was written mocha and yes ma'am as u mentioned it is with cream and yes it contained blended ice. It was not sweet taste like it felt like no sugar.
This video left out a couple things. If you’re planning to drink 3-4 cups a day... know that caffeine can be addictive. Caffeine is categorized as a drug in the same category as cocaine. When you cut out caffeine, you will go though withdrawal symptoms such as; headaches, fatigue, anxiety, etc.. Coffee dehydrates your body, so make sure you’re increasing your water intake. Also from a personal experience, coffee breaks me out. My acne slowly faded away when I stopped drinking coffee and cow milk.
In Europe, eg Germany and Austria, there's not only coldbrew but also plain water added (50%). Therefore when ordering, I'd ask for plain cold brew without ice or water either and myself bring a water bottle for dilution. lel
Why is everyone assuming that this video is claiming that Starbucks invented cold brew 🤦🏼♀️ no where does this video say starbucks invented cold brew, but they have definitely popularized the drink.
People who like starbucks obviously like it for their marketing strategies, popularity, and sugary taste. Noone is going to tell me that starbucks brews better coffee than your local coffee bar.
Cold brew was a let down for me. May as well serve it hot. It was warm. Not cold, not hot. Like left out coffee on a counter. Took a sip and was just like what happened.
Yuck coffee should never be cold. Also you say it's less acidic? I don't get that because the whole point of boiling the coffee is too boil out the acid in the coffee.
Of course, the cold brews made from beans that may have been picked in Guatemala by ten year olds at six bucks a day are particularly flavorful. (Starbucks disclaimer - careful investigation of these allegations of child labor reveal that no bean purchases were made from the farms in question........ “during the last harvest season.”....) Enjoy!
Do not say “no water” to cold brew because that is not a thing that we sell lol. Cubes of cold brew are almost immediately combined with water in a keg and if we have some left over it’s still not a product we offer for sale. (:
Brenna Gilbertson 2:06 they said that cold brew is Starbucks latest creation. But cold brew exists for hundreds of years, it was not created by Starbucks.
@@YourBuddyDidi exactly, creating something and inventing something are not completely interchangeable terms. To create is to make something that already exists. To invent is to be the original creator of something that did not already exist.
This just kinda sounds like they think Starbucks invented cold brewing and nitro pours. Either that or starbucks just chucked them a shit ton of money.
So when I get 12 oz of ice in my cold brew grande, and 4 oz of coffee, how much caffeine? It sure isn’t 16 oz of coffee. So I doubt it’s 205mg of caffeine.
Their cold brews taste so bitter and watery when they aren’t sweetened. That’s not how it should taste. I guess that’s what happens when you source your coffee as cheap as possible, and underpaid baristas are making your drink.
One time I got a cold brew and it wasn't bitter. But the last two times that I got a cold brew it was bitter and watery. The recipe calls for two pumps of vanilla syrup but I think that they forgot the two pumps of vanilla syrup. I had ordered the Pumpkin Creme Cold Brew. SMH. I'm going to have to learn how to make my drinks at home since they don't make the drink correctly.
Last year I had a cold brew or nitro cold brew whatever that was in Starbucks. It was the worst cold brew I have ever had. (2nd place was Portola coffee , taste like water with chemical sourness)

A regular venti cold brew would be servered with ice and would be far less if it had no ice like it’s counterpart.
Latham Maxwell no, like said in the video it would just ruin the integrity of the drink because the nitro would start “dying” as your pouring it if you poured a venti.
Alyssa Girga Actually, it’s both reasons. Stop trying to be invariably right. I also work there.
Lil D lol honestly I’ll say anything to a customer if it means that social interaction gets to end sooner. It does metabolize faster than normal cold brew and any coffee but even on sbux it says that a grande nitro is 280mg of caffeine while a grande pike is 310mg and a grande blonde roast is 360mg of caffeine. Honestly whatever tho, it ain’t really
Matter. Sbux sells crappy coffee but it’s good compared to other places in the us.
I’m a simple man; I see coffee, I hit like👍🏻.
unless it is from starbucks
You can get a cold brew pitcher from most housewares stores and make cold brew at home. You can also get a whipped cream dispenser and nitro cartridges, put your home cold brewed coffee in, shake for 30 seconds and you have nitro cold brew at home.
cold brew is perfect. chocolate notes with zero sugar
I like to make cold brew at home. I save money and still get to enjoy the same quality(if not better) as Starbucks!
which coffee beans do you recommend to use to make the cold brew?
As an Starbucks barista, I always opt for cold brew. It’s just smoother
Hii Can If I put my half drinked iced coffee from starbucks and put it in the fridge will it expire the next day?
@@nicoleanastacia5808 sorry for the late reply I’m in the midst of moving cross country, truthfully the coffee may have a stronger taste so I would cut it with milk but no it won’t be bad as long as you keep it refrigerated till used.
@@hannahlovli9101 Hii Tysm!! Now I know! 🤍 have a wonderfull day|night
Making cold brew out of Starbucks beans is not a good idea. They taste burnt, unless it's the blonde roast beans, which are pretty good.
Its blonde roast. And also its the same process for any beans in Starbucks. Its not burnt unless the vendor burnt them
@@musicianfriendly2005"Burnt" is relative. Starbucks' "medium" is more akin to a typical craft coffee dark. The reason starbucks does that is because they were the next big thing after folgers/ maxwell. So they went with huge production quantities roasted to hell and back, since that meant any distinctive characters -- including flaws -- in the beans would be gone, and it had a flavor similar to the older robusta beans.
Essentially, it's cost saving and from their history/ brand expectations by now.
Blonde is the only thing from them that isn't entire burnt to ashes.
Black , strong iced coffee with sugar is the best
A venti nitro brew would cause you to see smells
It's malarkey that it doesn't develop the same foam... I was told I couldn't order one venti mocha nitro cold brew, so I ordered two Grande's instead.
Starbuck is always two steps behind. Its just that they have so many cult members that just may seems like Starbucks are such innovators. Sad.
Free refills with Starbucks rewards..just get a tall cold brew and save money.
To me it's less bitter than their basic coffee. Never was really a fan of starbucks coffee so i was pleasantly surprised by the CB. I even like they have it available at grocery stores tho it sells out alot. I also tried stok brand and trader joes version of cold brew and both have a cheap motel room coffee machine taste lol .
I don’t care what anyone thinks, the cold brew with salted cream foam...fucking delicious
Grande cold brew with coconut milk and 2 stevia! I’m OBSESSED
your taste buds are on a shamefully low level
it’s always a “wyd” never a “what’s your cash app I’ll pay for your Starbucks today”
I've bought their cold brew 5 times and it tastes so bad I had to throw out each time.
Honestly I found a nation wide shop that has it and it's delicious and addictive. I don't know the huge difference
I cold brewed coffee for a month and a half. Wow! Super Strong
and I made my own cold brew at home which was way dangerous because I actually stayed awake more than cold brew. I'm not sure if I'll make one again. I'm scared lol
I work at Starbucks and I personally prefer cold brew over iced coffee.
Ma'am Peridot I have a question to you. I had Starbucks in Dubai something long name called Caffe Mocha Vanila frappe latte I tasted that why it is not sweetened? It only tastes like water with cream on top.
@@Maniacguy2777 Every Starbucks is different. How we make one drink in the US is going to be slightly different overseas. PLUS the ingredients may not even be from the same source/brand. That’s a question I cant really answer for you. But if it’s a frappechino, I wouldn’t be surprised if it was as sweet considering it consists of like 80-90% blended ice.
@@Maniacguy2777 depend on the size too. A grande only has like 2 shots, 3 pumps of mocha, 3 pumps vanilla, maybe a shot or two of milk/cream, and like 3 pumps of mixer (keeps water and ingredients from separating) to like a whole grande sized amount of ice.
@@darwinstevens810 I don't remember the name it was written mocha and yes ma'am as u mentioned it is with cream and yes it contained blended ice. It was not sweet taste like it felt like no sugar.
@@darwinstevens810 I thought every Starbucks are same all over the world except third party fake brand will be different.
I don't need to go to starbucks, anymore!
Lmao how is this untold truth? This is basic coffee knowledge
God bless cold brew!! Especially the vanilla sweet cream
mashed is sponsored by starbucks and they didnt say in the beginning ...
This video left out a couple things.
If you’re planning to drink 3-4 cups a day... know that caffeine can be addictive.
Caffeine is categorized as a drug in the same category as cocaine.
When you cut out caffeine, you will go though withdrawal symptoms such as; headaches, fatigue, anxiety, etc..
Coffee dehydrates your body, so make sure you’re increasing your water intake.
Also from a personal experience, coffee breaks me out. My acne slowly faded away when I stopped drinking coffee and cow milk.
In Europe, eg Germany and Austria, there's not only coldbrew but also plain water added (50%). Therefore when ordering, I'd ask for plain cold brew without ice or water either and myself bring a water bottle for dilution. lel
That is also true for stores in the US.
Why is everyone assuming that this video is claiming that Starbucks invented cold brew 🤦🏼♀️ no where does this video say starbucks invented cold brew, but they have definitely popularized the drink.
This is another reason why Mashed isn’t news but advertising
People who like starbucks obviously like it for their marketing strategies, popularity, and sugary taste. Noone is going to tell me that starbucks brews better coffee than your local coffee bar.
Cold brew is super easy to make at home. You can even make it with a French Press.
bludhound73 yep. I just go to Starbucks for bags of ground coffee and get (2) free Venti waters (their water is filtered 3x) for my french press
Cold brew was a let down for me. May as well serve it hot. It was warm. Not cold, not hot. Like left out coffee on a counter. Took a sip and was just like what happened.
Yuck coffee should never be cold. Also you say it's less acidic? I don't get that because the whole point of boiling the coffee is too boil out the acid in the coffee.
The acidity of the starbuck's cold brew is always overwhelming.
Lucy Hao try it with some vanilla sweet cream!
Starbucks created cold brew?? Lol. I think not
Samuel Lias in what time stamp does it say that?
@@July-gj1st the entire video is acting like they did
Dead channel Seriously it’s dead I re-watched the thing, that’s just an interpretation lmao.
@@July-gj1st I apologize for making you feel the need to re-watch the video, I was just trying to clarify what the original comment meant
The truth.... From a Starbucks commercial
Of course, the cold brews made from beans that may have been picked in Guatemala by ten year olds at six bucks a day are particularly flavorful. (Starbucks disclaimer - careful investigation of these allegations of child labor reveal that no bean purchases were made from the farms in question........ “during the last harvest season.”....)
Enjoy!
4 cups of coffee A DAY?? OMG
Cafeidas my thoughts exactly 😂
I do like 7
Probably 6-8oz cups in the study... would be good to know the facts of the study before quoting recommendations
some bs in this video too, especially the health benefits part, 1 cup is ok, but 3? that's just outrageous bs
Do not say “no water” to cold brew because that is not a thing that we sell lol. Cubes of cold brew are almost immediately combined with water in a keg and if we have some left over it’s still not a product we offer for sale. (:
I’m pretty sure Starbucks did not invent cold brew.
They did not. Where did you read this?
Brenna Gilbertson 2:06 they said that cold brew is Starbucks latest creation. But cold brew exists for hundreds of years, it was not created by Starbucks.
@@YourBuddyDidi exactly, creating something and inventing something are not completely interchangeable terms. To create is to make something that already exists. To invent is to be the original creator of something that did not already exist.
In Mexico the nitro is only available in Reserve roasteries and there is only one in my city...
The narrater acts like starbucks makes real coffee hahaha
What’s the recipe for cold brew?? What ration should I use?
Once I got a barista to make me a venti nitro cold brew.. next thing I knew the Starbucks Exploded!! XO
The reason they don’t serve venti is because it has too much caffeine. Get your facts straight.
I make my own at home, it's cheaper. Not to mention convenient!
Watching with a iced white chocolate mocha
This just kinda sounds like they think Starbucks invented cold brewing and nitro pours. Either that or starbucks just chucked them a shit ton of money.
It can't be served in a venti because the caffeine is so high and you can't have a straw because drinking it too fast can be terrible for your health.
Is this a commercial?
All of their videos are.
Pour ground coffee, pour cold water. Forget about it on the fridge for a day. Cold brew.
You can get regular cold brew in Venti and Trenta sizes.
when that cold brew hits
I get to nitro cold brew in grande, but I ask for ice and in a venti cup 🙌
i cold brew my own coffee at home it is easy and costs way less
So when I get 12 oz of ice in my cold brew grande, and 4 oz of coffee, how much caffeine? It sure isn’t 16 oz of coffee. So I doubt it’s 205mg of caffeine.
What’s the video in 0:55 in? Please reply
nah cause my names david…and i get a cold brew,,, guy on the cup he just like me
Pumpkin cream cold brew is the best drink of all time
I prefer Ice Coffee. I only drink Cold Brew for caffeine
So it's coffee tea? 😆
I don't drink coffee is this cold brew really strong ? I don't wanna be hyped up with all that caffeine
Toma pang cold brew has more caffeine than traditional brew. It also depends on the roast they use. But generally yes
Starbucks did not invent cold brew or nitro. Just putting it out there.
Would still buy from them though, for convenience.
Is it close to Thai Ice coffee?
Starbucks Cold Brew is so good! Worth every penny!
I heard it's very bitter
Starbucks cold brew coffee looks amazing!
Foodie Lah! U can make it it will taste better cuz it’s cheaper
Their cold brews taste so bitter and watery when they aren’t sweetened. That’s not how it should taste. I guess that’s what happens when you source your coffee as cheap as possible, and underpaid baristas are making your drink.
One time I got a cold brew and it wasn't bitter. But the last two times that I got a cold brew it was bitter and watery. The recipe calls for two pumps of vanilla syrup but I think that they forgot the two pumps of vanilla syrup. I had ordered the Pumpkin Creme Cold Brew. SMH. I'm going to have to learn how to make my drinks at home since they don't make the drink correctly.
I love star bucks
Careful if your on Keto: Starbucks cold brew has hidden carbs.
Last year I had a cold brew or nitro cold brew whatever that was in Starbucks. It was the worst cold brew I have ever had. (2nd place was Portola coffee , taste like water with chemical sourness)
