genuine question (self.starbucksbaristas)

so cold brew right? according to the app it has 205mg of caffeine. but the nitro cold brew has 280mg (these are both grande sizes). how is that possible? we use the same brew for cold brew and nitro cold brew, just nitrogen is added and that doesn’t MAKE caffeine? can someone explain this like i’m a child

Nitro cold brews are filled the brim. Regular cold brew goes by the lines. More cold brew ounces = more caffeine.

omg adds up. so this means if someone gets a cold brew without ice it’s the same then?

It should be, because it'd be filled to the top then!
If you really want a caffeine boost, you should see how much caffeine a plain Veranda has!

Nitro doesn’t get ice! So more liquid means more caffeine

Omg I've been wondering this for 3 months and never stopped to consider ice 🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️

The nitro doesn't get ice and it's filled to the top by standard whereas regular cold brew is only to the top line by standard. On top of that the nitrogen makes the caffeine go straight to your bloodstream which gives that immediate caffeine buzz a few minutes after having it.
