Iced Clover
Here’s an interesting sidelight to the whole Clover/Starbucks brouhaha - they’re now promoting iced coffee produced from the the whizbang machines, as part of their rollout of the automated french presses to more locations in the city. Greenlake’s machine produced (after an initial bit of barista confusion) a superb drink, brewed double-strength and poured over ice, from Verona beans. Granted, recent weather patterns have made iced drinks a bit of an affectation, but once the sunshine returns Clover-generated iced coffees might win a spot on my rotating list of drinks.


Is it better than the cold-brewed iced coffee you get at Victrola or Vita? That is liquid crack.
