That by no means is a normal coffee. It's 70% milk, 25% ice and 5% coffee. I've been told several times I put an unusual amount of milk in my coffee (well, did, only drink black now) and that's WAY too much even for me. It's like they used a pipette to get as little coffee as possible in there.
I really want to like iced coffee but so many of the places I can get it from make it taste watered down. It's like they get the ice from a soda fountain and it adds a bunch of water to it.
I've had better luck with cold brews for the "cold coffee" urges
I don't think that's what's happening here. I wouldn't consider this a coffee. It's like saying coffee milk tea is coffee. Yea, it's got coffee in it, but unless a drink is mostly coffee, it's not coffee. It's a coffee flavored drink. Which is fine. It's just not coffee.

Where's the coffee? Is it behind the cup of iced milk?
Yeah, that looks more like a milk shake flavoured with a bit of coffee
.... but then again, this is Dull Men's club and I would drink that anyway ... even though I am lactose intolerant
It doesn't even look like coffee, it's weirdly red in color. It looks like extremely diluted, with milk, roibos tea.
Easy there tiger.... Nothing exciting allowed, yeah?! 😎
It was a very normal coffee.
I dunno... Look a bit fancy with the ice and whatnot there.... 🕺

You forgot 95% sugar.
Is the coffee in the room with us?
Just because it's a drink from a coffee shop, doesn't make automatically make it a coffee. Hope it was what you wanted and to your liking.
I wish I could get into iced coffee; for me it has to be hot or it's just not appealing.
Hope it was delicious and refreshing!
Based!
Was it good?

Speaking of cold brew... Nugget ice with a quad shot of cold brew espresso and a small amount of cold foam
It was really nice, a little milky for me but it was a brew coffee with ice. I dont find it to be too watered down, but try to your liking.
Too dull, brother. Dial it up a quarter of a notch.
The gatekeeping in these comments is the wrong kind of dull. Hope you enjoyed your coffee, OP ☕
I think you need to take it back. Say "I ordered a coffee. Not an iced coffee flavored sugar drink".
Clearly the indepentanly owned coffee shop has given you something more akin to a tradh starbucks drink.
Mistakes were made.
How dare anyone enjoy a thing differently than you!

Gatekeeping coffee
What exactly constitutes coffee then? Anything with coffee in it? Anything people call coffee?
