Sometimes I just wonder up what's up with people! (i.redd.it)

One time I was on bar and the partner on reg came over to me and said "what's on the sticker thats about to come out isn't rung up incorrectly, they actually want it that way" and I was like uhh, okay? It was a grande cold brew w/ lemonade.

This is actually a real drink. It’s supposed to be made with uncut lemonade and ice on the bottom, then uncut cold brew poured on top. However I think this way it literally tastes like batter acid. But I promise you if you use bot cut products it’s pretty good.

My friends went a starbucks at the mall and the partners gave them out for free as a joke/experiment. One of my friends actually enjoyed that shit.

I've seen this multiple small town coffee shops. I've also seen over coffee with orange juice.

omg i got a grande lemonade with coconut milk order yesterday. i was like... uh......gross? i made it and it looked like it was curdling
astivana 7 points 3y ago
I’ve been doing that with vanilla bean and base blended and it tastes kinda like a lemon Italian ice.
narviat 2 points 3y ago
looks like i have some new recipes to try today....

I would try a lemonade with coconut milk and pumps of vanilla, it’s heaven. I had a girl come through drive the other day and order it and she said she mixes it with alcohol
_delgxdo_ 1 points 3y ago
There's a girl that does this at my store too! When I first heard this drink I was like wtf? But I tried it and i was very pleasantly surprised lol
gay_mother 3 points 3y ago
I'm a partner and I tried our guava passion fruit add lemonade and it looks gross but it's literally heaven and I'm MAD
narviat 1 points 3y ago
I'm mad too now. It's delicious 😠

This is like a summer shandy! Tastes way better with cold brew because of the citrus notes. As weird as it is, it is a "thing" but mostly with beer.
dodofishman 10 points 3y ago
I could see a cold brew lemonade with some really nice quality citrus-y beans but idk about starbucks cold brew tbh
agentdouble1s 2 points 3y ago
I never liked it but when coffee master was a thing and cold brew became a thing it was like everyone's go-to coffee tasting. And I'm from an area with Wawa and they had it as a menu item - so I'm not sure whose would be worse 🤮

I make this for myself occasionally 😊 tangy and refreshing

Ask Customer if they’re fucking sorry
lilBalzac 11 points 3y ago
Try making a decaf pour over with extra hot steamed lemonade and heavy cream. Great on a hot day.
csaan18 4 points 3y ago
A hot drink on a hot day? Huh?
choba-choba 3 points 3y ago
I have been selling hot chocolate, every day during this summer 🤦‍♂️
aimsthename88 2 points 3y ago
Same here!
sarajasim 8 points 3y ago
Rang in a drink like this recently and I asked her at the window what was up (politely) and she compared it to an Arnold Palmer. Still not convinced but I can see the line of thought
bobrosstier 6 points 3y ago
Ask customer if they’re ok
holdenthesecoronas 4 points 3y ago

**Question**

*Ask customer if there's something wrong with them.*

one of my shifts used to make this last summer. made me drink it. i was ready to quit on the spot. i felt so betrayed by this man. one of my favorite shifts, but he really tests me sometimes.
emulls 3 points 3y ago
Ugh god reminds me of an old ASM at my store that used to drink a grande lemonade with 2 shots of espresso
Alefur 3 points 3y ago
Was on an opening shift and was really tired so my partner made me a drink. Tried it, almost immediately spit it out. Cold Brew and Lemonade. Disgusting, but it wakes you up.
justalilbitofcoffee 2 points 3y ago
Okay our coffee is nasty but cold brew and lemonade is my favorite 😤
amazing_redhead 2 points 3y ago
Reminds me of when I had a customer add shots to a guava passionfruit 😰
brit_666 2 points 3y ago
i’ve made a grande black iced tea with two shots before
abbycline69 2 points 3y ago
Cold brew lemonade 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
TheYesExpress 2 points 3y ago
I rebuke this in the name of the coffee gods.
that_orange_hat 1 points 3y ago
Ngl this is actually really tasty
that_orange_hat 1 points 3y ago
OH but only without milk. Like just iced black coffee and lemonade
SeniorSalary 1 points 3y ago
I've heard of cold brew and lemonade but...
dangerousdeliights 1 points 3y ago
I worked at Caribou for two years. last summer, one of our seasonal specials was a cold press shandy, which was cold brew and lemonade... needless to say, it did not return this summer

2/3rds lemonade, 1/3rd iced coffee, 1 agave in the shaker. Don’t knock it til ya try it!
cyan_reynolds 1 points 3y ago
Somebody at out store got a lemonade with a shot, which weirdly tastes a lot like bbq. It wasn't bad, and one of my partners gets it all the time now.
pasteldirt 1 points 3y ago
Something like this is a featured drink in Japan right now. It's like a citrus iced coffee with lime or orange. Looks absolutely nasty.
rexi_sang 1 points 3y ago
I am tempted to try it but I’m sure I’ll regret it really quickly

Edit: for those who watch Brooklyn 99, I feel like Jackie Peralta would have made a “Title of your...” joke out of my comment.
