how the hell do i make an iced tea (self.starbucksbaristas)
submitted by siouxxsiee
i was not trained well on cold bar and think i have been making all of my iced teas wrong (passion, black, and green)!! how much water do we add? or ice? is it by using a shaker?

For just plain teas (black, green, passion) with nothing added it’s tea to the base line on the shaker, water to the water line, and ice to the ice line and shake 10ish times. Tea lemonades are the same but just lemonade instead of water.
Peach tea lemonades or peach teas are tea to base line, then the second portion is split into 2 parts so you do juice to the line that says juice and water/lemonade to the line that says water and then ice and shake.

So, I was taught that when brewing an iced tea you should begin by just putting a tea bag in the big brewer with the spout on the bottom and fill that to the 1L line. After that, leave it to steep for 5 minutes and then take the teabag out, add a Venti scoop of ice, and fill it the rest of the way with water! I hope this helps!

they aren’t asking about that part. its about the part that comes after. actually making them on bar.

Ah, well, what helped me there was just reading the lines for measurement. (They should say which ingredients to which line) Then, depending on whether they want light or extra of something I just put that ingredient In a line below or above where it should be. You've got this bud!

I was taught 0.75 L of hot water 😅

I'm not sure if it's the 1 Liter line or the half Liter line but halfway up the pitcher is basically what it is

It's 1L.

I’m not sure if you’re wondering how to make the drink or brew the tea, but for making drinks you’ll add the tea to the base line of the shaker for the size you’re making and then fill water/lemonade to the water/lemonade line and then pumps of liquid cane for the size you’re making and then ice

This is correct but they changed the iced teas recently so they come unsweetened by default, and you have to request for liquid cane.

i don’t think they’ve changed the recipe here (in canada) but i could be wrong
PapaJey 3 points 8m ago
I didn’t even think about that, my bad!
bellamythos 2 points 8m ago
yup, i’m pretty sure the standard/default is unsweetened in the US but sweetened in Canada!

Use the measurements on the shaker. No sugar unless it’s asked for. Use an ice scoop that is the right size. Shake ten times
