When did you start drinking it?
At least 20 years ago. I mean, I just made it at home. I don't really remember the first time I got it in a Starbucks or other coffee place.
It's possible that he's in the land of perpetual Wednesday, or the crazy melty land, or you know, the world without shrimp.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Our wings are not tired.
Even in Florida I drink hot coffee and tea. I like hot drinks, and food for that matter. Make soup 12 months a year.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
I think my first encounter with the concept of iced coffee was a Vietnamese restaurant

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
In RI and parts of MA people drink iced coffee all year long.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Real coffee lovers sip it at room temperature a teaspoon at a time, aspirating each mouthful to fully experience the flavor.
Just sayin

I used to only drink iced coffee in summer, starting maybe 20 years ago, but I've been drinking it year round pretty consistently for 12 or do years.
I prefer both coffee and tea iced and unsweetened, but I need some sort of milk product in my coffee.

Huh. I drink iced coffee in the summer, even though half (most?) the time in Seattle summer it's not really warm enough to be drinking it. Or if it's actually hot out, no matter what the season (um, that would be somewhere other than Seattle, though).
The thing I don't get is the fetishization of "cold brew". Like...it's not that fancy (why are you charging so much extra??), and also I don't really care if it's cold brew or just regular brew that you stuck in the fridge? They may taste different (I recall reading an article where someone tested that) but generally I'm putting cream and sugar in, and not super noticing the difference.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I drink iced Americanos or cold brew during the summer (plus the occasional Nitro from Starbucks), and either French Press or cappucinos during the winter depending on what I have time for. If the milk isn't steamed/foamed, I take it black.
