Iced cappuccinos still confuse tf out of me like do you steam the milk still to get the foam????????
mrsnataliehooper 32 points 2y ago
Pretty sure you do nonfat milk in the foam blender but i def. could be wrong
Ashamed_Equal 60 points 2y ago
To respond to both of you. There used to be an iced capp and an iced cold foam capp. Iced capps were like an iced latte with steamed milk on top while an iced cold foam capp was ice, then espresso (do not shake cup to adjust ice, leave as is), milk to third line, then nonfat foam from blender on top.

Somewhere along the lines, it changed. Iced capps are now made with cold foam in the iced cold foam capps, but the process is shots, milk to third line, ice with an inch of room, then nonfat milk foam from blender

I am a 5 year partner, and all this change is so confusing tbh … I have a hard time keeping it straight

Every time I train a partner I’m like “let me check to see if it’s changed again” I swear it confuses the heck out of me

Oh that's weird, the order we pour it in the UK is different. We do ice to middle line, cold foam on top, and then we pour the shots directly into a steaming pitcher with a few ice cubes and then slowly pour it through the cold foam. It also comes sweetened with simple syrup by default.

That sounds right idk i never had to

Green tea latte with cold foam and two shots is my guess but why would you order it lIKE THIS

(As a barista I heard someone order a matcha latte with a shot once, was intrigued, tried it with blonde and it was kinda weirdly yummy )

Right? It sounds and looks vile, but a green tea latte with blonde shots and hazelnut syrup is actually not bad.

For the record, I had no idea what they wanted and I had no idea how to even begin to make this because the sticker was all I had to go by

As someone who orders the espresso matcha fusion on the regular, I feel so judged right now.

I’m excited to try this now!
chuhai-drinker [OP] 1 points 2y ago
I mean it's not so much the drink itself as it is the way they ordered it. Just bizarre.

I am terrified of whoever comes up with these
chuhai-drinker [OP] 14 points 2y ago
I feel like while they were ordering they were just saying words

We have the Espresso and Matcha Fusion in Singapore. Looks just like this, minus the foam on top.

Why would anybody want this😞
bman14613 1 points 2y ago
I would’ve jus put the matcha in the foam and said have a good day and then put whipped cream and caramel drizzle the shit out of it
[deleted] 1 points 2y ago
I think that’s supposed to be one of those yoda drinks I’ve seen on some secret menu sites 🤢🤢

I only served either 3-4 iced Cappuccino in the 4-5 years I worked there, but it honestly beat the purpose.

It’s an iced latte with hot foam on top...
