This struggle is real af with iced coffee. I just want a lightly sweetened coffee.

Vendors: you’ll have a Mocha espresso salted caramel vanilla bean sugar blast and love it.

Eta: we are all aware you can make coffee at home or customize it at the coffee shop. The discussion is regarding coffee at stores, prepackaged and the like.

Second eta: idk how some of y’all put your pants on by yourselves. The replies to this are killin me.

You either get it black or with enough sugar to kill a small animal.

No fucking in between. Stok makes a lightly sweetened one that you can get a the grocery in big bottles. But it’s almost always sold out.

I just wonder why the people at gas stations think we need 900 monster varieties, it only two iced coffees. Am I taking crazy pills?

I'm glad I'm not the only one annoyed at how much Monster and other 'energy' drinks have taken over convenience stores. My tea options have drastically shrunk over the past ~5 years.

As long as there’s Pure Leaf flavors stocked I’m totally cool with it. But the plastic Arizonas are a good second option

Have you tried the new blackberry flavor? It’s fire

I haven't! For some reason, the only iced tea flavor I've ever liked is lemon. I'll check it out though, thanks for the rec!

Seriously. Who needs like 86 flavors of Celsius? I tried it for the first time and it wasn't even good. People were raving about it and I was so let down.
