Seriously. Why?

I offer a peach green tea lemonade with honey blend - the green tea is the same (jade citrus mint) then the juice adds the peach flavor 🤷‍♀️

My mom's favorite drink is the London fog. I told her about people ordering it iced and she was like, oh I'll have to try that sometime!

In my head I'm going abort! Abort! Abort!

We just had a lady a few weeks ago ask for this. I’m a newer barista but even my SSV and I just looked at each other with such a confused look on our faces. My store is in WI

Any kind of iced tea latte isn't that complicated, but not very common.

I don't know if we still have a recipe card for them, but pretty much any iced tea latte is made by steeping tea bags in about half the amount of water to make it more concentrated and letting it steep for five minutes. Then you use the tea shaker to make it like any other iced tea. Pour the tea to the bottom line, the milk to the middle line, pump any syrups like usual and then top with ice and shake.

Pretty easy but it does make any iced tea latte a minimum of five minutes to prepare. Otherwise it won't taste like tea.

Same. I work at a MD store and people stay trying to order this

Have you tried it? I did and it’s actually really good! We don’t have many people order it, but when they do we treat it like like the brewed tea lattes- this will take a while, you’ll have to wait and we can run it out or we can try to make something similar with iced green tea and peach juice.

I agree it's really good, but it's such a pain and the peach green tea lemonade is also really good. I'll bring a hot one home with me and ice what's left at the end of my drive, but if I'm getting it to drink at the store I'll just go for the peach green tea lemonade.

We had a lady go through our drive thru not that long ago and got two of these. It's not typically iced and she threw a fit when she got to the window and they were hot. We explained the situation and had her pull around front while we made iced ones 🤦🏻‍♂️.

do a green tea w/ peach
mint syrup
honey blend
half lemonade
half water

i just made it and it’s super good.

They should just go ahead and put this on the menu, it could head off people asking for the hot one iced and save DT times
urlocaltransboy 2 points 2y ago
the hot one iced also just doesn’t have as much flavor as the hot one. the ice waters everything down a lot. i made my version of it on my last shift and it was very similar to the hot !

i’m a barista and i make these for myself on the daily!! i personally think they’re better iced, you should try it! :)

Just make it & give them a cup of ice to pour it over, I’ve done it that way for myself many times & it’s delish.
