Ice coffee (๐จ+โ) or iced coffee (๐ฎ)?
Tech bros live on cold brew.
This post implies tech bros are gay men and women. This is why I like Lenny, i learn new things.
Cold brew and iced coffee are different, one is for tech bros, the other is for women and gay men
The (pumpkin) spice must flow! He who controls Dune controls the (pumpkin) spice!
As a gay man, I have one thing to say: true.
Hmm,I thought I was a cishet black male, but my enjoyment of iced coffee calls that into question.
The other day I was trying to explain to my uncles that living in a hot desert climate drinking ice coffee makes a lot of sense, but they werenโt convinced.
Maybe a point we're not used to hot weather but there's a thinking in the UK that hot drinks help trick your body into making a better effort to stay cool. Often attributed to the desert rats of ww2 excuse to drink tea.
Well, the British have it all messed up, I think that only works with hot foods that donโt actually raise your bodies temperature

It feels hot and it affects circulation and stuff. But the physical heating effect is pretty minuscule. If you think about it, a human is more or less like 75kg of water at 36 degrees celsius, if you add 0.25kg of water at 50 degrees celsius (cup of tea) you end up with a body of 75.25kg at 36.05 degrees celsius.
Y'all have never been to New England heh? That's all they drink, year round.
Hehehe yep.
Lived in New England my whole life.
Coffee is a drink best served cold. Preferably also brewed cold.
Or coffee syrup in milk. Now ya know which New England state. Get that with 6 all the way.
Lived in NE my whole life, hot, black coffee only. But I agree, most people here love it. Feel like "coffee" is mostly coffee-milkshake these days.
I'll always remember what I was doing on 9/11: Drinking ice coffee while watching the news after lunch. Not gay, btw.
If I like my coffee not only with ice but also sweetened, blended, and topped with whipped cream, does it wrap back around to straight?
Not what I was expecting from thumbnail and title lol
Meanwhile, Greece's national drink is an ice coffee

I am glad the rest of the planet has joined the greeks. Who said that modern Greece isnt producing any new culture?
[off topic?]
Buy this stuff. two bottles will give you heart palpitations.
Never in my life have I seen this
I grew up seeing the old Italian men drinking it near the bocci courts.
It's made in Brooklyn, USA.
Probably best part for those who enjoy white girls who wear short shorts
This made me realizeI only know two dudes who drink ice coffee, and they're both gay. Huh.
Working class Australia too. Dare, Ice Break, and Farmer's Union flow through the blood of every tradie.
As a bi man, Iโm also weak for it and also like iced pumpkin spice lattes.
Ill take well made cold brew over iced coffee, but for some reason the spot near my work has awful cold brew and decent iced. So my semi daily is iced coffee year round.
I love iced coffee.
Instant decaf dissolves just as well in cold water as it does hot water.
