Help a pregnant lady out? (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by that_dandelion_girl
I really like ice coffee. Usually I'll stop at burger king or jack in the box (cheaper, lol) but they don't do caffeine free. I've been experimenting with starbucks drinks and can't come to a conclusion on how to get a sweet ice coffee easily?

The closest I've gotten is asking for a decaf iced vanilla latte, but a lot of the time it comes out less sweet than I want. Can someone make a recommendation on how to get a standard sweet-level drink out of this? lol. This baby likes cream & sugar but I go through the drive thru on the way to work and don't have time to self-sweeten. Is there a standard drink + pumps I could order?

Thanks in advance!

Order an iced decaf white mocha if you like sweet. I hate white chocolate but for some reason I love the Starbucks white mocha. It’s sweet and complements the coffee well.

If you like the decaf iced vanilla latte, I would try it ristretto with 8 pumps vanilla. Changing my shot style to ristretto really lighted up the vanilla. I also personally drink soy as it’s vanilla soy and adds a smoother sweetness to the drink but I’m not sure if you have any dietary restrictions

Hello there, I was a starbucks barista. If you like decaf and want a iced drink you can get anytime, any store, I recommend a iced decaf americano ( espresso and water, has a dark roast ice coffee taste) your size depends on the number of pumps of sweetener. I would tell you to double the pumps and then cut it back if you need to. For a tall (small) it normally gets 3 pumps so I would recommend doubling it to 6, for grande (medium) normally 4 so order 8 pumps of sweetener, venti (large)normally 6 so order 12. The flavors you can choose from are caramel, toffee nut, peppermint, hazelnut, classic (reg sugar) liquid cane(raw sugar) raspberry, cinnamon dolce. Thick syrups (the chocolates and caramels) are sweeter so you might not need to double it. Those options are white choc., mocha, sugar free mocha, and seasonal syrups like pumpkin, maple pecan ect.

Depending on the size ask for a few extra pumps of the classic simple syrup. Like For example a grande (medium) that has four pumps standard so if you’re looking for a super sweet coffee I’d go with six or seven. And if you like extra cream you could ask for it in a venti sized cup so you get your bang for your buck. Ask first if they have decaf iced coffee I know not many locations do it. If they don’t I’d go with an iced decaf americano it’s just watered down espresso shots.
