![]() We’ve done all sorts of fast food coffee rankings and blind taste tests and when it comes to good coffee we’re always looking for one thing: balance. Just because Starbucks won’t simplify its menu, doesn’t mean we won’t try to do it for them!įind out which drinks are worth your time and money, and how to navigate Starbucks’ needlessly complicated categories below. They’re so similar they don’t deserve independent rankings, so we’re going to lump them in as one entry and make notes on the flavor profiles of both. We’ve also eliminated a few drinks that we consider minor alterations of a menu item, for example, Starbucks lists both Iced Coffee and Iced Coffee With Milk. We’ll be sure to list how each drink is made so you have a clear understanding of what you’re ordering. Seriously Starbucks, get a hold of yourself and fix this menu! End rant.īecause there are a considerable number of customizable flavor options at Starbucks, we’re only going to be ranking the drinks Starbucks lists on its online menu, ordering each as-is, size tall (small) with no additional tweaks. So to save you some time, we’ve decided to break down each one of Starbucks’ iced coffee drinks by tasting and ranking all of them and explaining the differences between drinks like the shaken espresso and the iced macchiato - which, as we said before, are essentially the same thing. That explains why the drive-thru and in-store lines are always so long - don’t blame the baristas, blame Starbucks because nobody knows what the hell they are ordering. Is there a separate category for the other flavored lattes? Nope, just chocolate. Take for instance the weird made-up subcategory “iced mochas.” Iced mochas differ in no way from iced lattes (a different category on the menu) except that they’re made with chocolate. ![]() Seriously, this menu is needlessly complicated. What kind of sick game are you playing with us, Starbucks? Who are you, Chuck Rhoades from Billions?! Cold brews with cream, nitro cold brews, iced Americanos, iced coffees, shaken espressos, iced flat whites, iced lattes, iced macchiatos… they really should be given some sort of reward for figuring out new ways to fill their menu with what is essentially the same thing over and over and over again while charging you different amounts of money for it. Starbucks’ iced coffee menu is all sorts of f*cked up.
