🥲 it’s my go to order, Don’t knock it till you try it
Young-Jeezy 10 points 1y ago
Okay okay I’ll try it shots and lemonade scare me but then again that cold brew lemonade also scared me then I tried it and was surprised it wasn’t that bad
Caffeineadick [OP] 9 points 1y ago
My managers the one who recommended it to me while i was new, thought it sounded nasty but it surprised me and now my favourite

I can’t believe the amount of “baristas” here that act like lemonade & espresso is vulgar. It’s a classic combo. I’m sure the raspberry also brings out a lot of good notes in the coffee as well.

Okay I tried it today it wasn’t terrible lol it did have a slightly weird after taste and initially good taste but overall I didn’t hate it lol not my go to but to each their own I’m more of a blonde shots and oat milk person

Everybody hates my go to order too except for the people who have tryed it 😂😂. Venti steamed lemonade with 6 pumps of chai, it's my favorite
Humble-Hedgehog9546 6 points 1y ago

zjb26 5 points 1y ago
You won't know till you try it

zjb26 1 points 1y ago
Steamed apple with 6pumps of chai, sure but I don't like apple as much
Caffeineadick [OP] 2 points 1y ago

Caffeineadick [OP] 8 points 1y ago

flower_garden_ 3 points 1y ago
Have you tried it iced? Does it still taste good?
Caffeineadick [OP] 4 points 1y ago
I have it tastes the same less sweet
flower_garden_ 3 points 1y ago
I'm gonna try it my next shift then, you've peaked my interest. I can already see the partners at my store acting like I've committed a crime against humanity lol.

blonde espresso has higher acidity than the signature bean— the acid taste in blonde espresso is why it pairs so well with lemon loafs and lemonade!! idk why people think this is a war crime lol
pupgarcia 10 points 1y ago
that explains why during my coffee tasting they parked blonde coffee with a lemon loaf🤔

It actually tastes decent if you’ve ever had a Long Island ice tea tastes like that
amalia13lightning 16 points 1y ago

Caffeineadick [OP] 9 points 1y ago
Just trust me on this order it just a steamed lemonade and one shot of expresso and it tastes just like it I swear🤣

I’m more worried about the hair on the lid than what’s in the cup…
Caffeineadick [OP] 3 points 1y ago
It’s my hair
LifeIs_Ugh 3 points 1y ago

rlogranite 4 points 1y ago

Caffeineadick [OP] 2 points 1y ago

charliemagnee 4 points 1y ago
Espresso lemonades and espresso oj are combos that have been around foreverrrr in third wave coffee! So I’m not surprised it’s good!!

im suing for emotional damage bc you made me see this
Ittaintright 2 points 1y ago
I float a blonde double shot on top of lemonade with 4 pumps of classic and it is actually pretty good, if you like the taste of espresso. The cold brew and lemonade is also pretty good
