Stand Coffee is a cafe located in Brooklyn, New York City that offers an unusual hybrid of two popular summertime drinks in one with a lemonade iced coffee beverage. The drink might sound like a bizarre pair of two contrasting flavors, but the drink is surprisingly refreshing as the aromas pair quite nicely together.
While the drink sounds like it could be made equal parts lemonade and iced coffee, it is actually much simpler than that and harnesses more subtle flavors. The beverage features an iced coffee base topped with almond milk and ice. Then a shot of vanilla lemon syrup is added to give it a slightly sweet and citrus note. The drink takes inspiration from one of Stand Coffee's owners that use to mix coffee with orange juice.
