Another 1-for-1 buy today to try the new Triple Citrus Cold Brew. I think the drink is really pretty because of the layers of separation between the citrus syrup and cold brew. Unfortunately you do have to use a straw or stirrer to mix the drink or else you’ll just get cold brew on top and citrus drink at the bottom.

Now I don’t usually drink cold brews or order cold drinks at Starbucks, so my first impression of this was like drinking lemonade with a bitter coffee taste. I didn’t know what to feel about the drink at first. After mixing it more thoroughly, the drink tasted more like a very strong ice lemon tea. It was refreshing and especially great for a hot day. Would probably order this or the cascara macchiato again if I drop by Starbucks before this bout of new drinks ends! :)
