It is reported that Starbucks cold-extracted iced coffee requires 20 hours of low-temperature extraction, which perfectly balances the acidity and mellowness of the coffee, while retaining the rich taste and complete aroma of the coffee. The first Starbucks cold iced coffee was selected from the Peruvian Amazon Zhenxuan coffee, known as "Brave Coffee", which is one of the few beans identified by Starbucks' global coffee research and development team to make cold iced coffee.

The long-term extraction and rare coffee beans greatly restrict the supply of cold extracted iced coffee. As a result, Starbucks cold iced coffee is currently only available in 19 selected stores across the country.
