Bubble tea

Our GenZ DD loves coffee, hot and iced. But doesn’t drink any energy drinks. She’s on the older side of GenZ

Also live in NYC - our teens like iced coffee from Blue Bottle and Birch (Birch has student discount), but it’s very expensive so only on special occasions. They usually get lemonade or bubble tea when they go to Koreatown. Our kids don’t like Starbucks - my work colleagues bought my kids a Starbucks gift card a year ago, but the girls still haven’t used it.

Our kids do make themselves coffee every morning to take to school. Some concoction where they mix Douwe Egberts Pure Gold freeze dried coffee (1/2 of a packet) with a tiny bit of hot water and then fill it to the top with milk.

Many of our kid’s friends are from East Asia, and the girls drink tea not coffee, and bring tea to school in their water bottles.

My 17 yo DS drinks black coffee. DH likes expensive beans so DS drinks what we make at home.

Never see kids around me drink energy drinks or soda. Well-off suburb.

But coffee, yes. Lots of visits to coffee shops for sweetened coffee drinks. I laugh at the notion of refusing a soda because it's unhealthy and then loading up on a massive bucket of whatever from Starbucks.

Yes, but my DS18 is cheap so drinks what we make at home.

Yes, they drink coffee

Ice coffee

Lots of iced cofee among the 18-22 year-olds I teach.

Sure but with alt milks or just matcha instead

My 14yo likes coffee but definitely not Starbucks. She’d rather spend all her babysitting money at the bougie places like blue bottle and blank street (we are in nyc). She also loves chai. Hates any sort of energy drink and thinks they are completely disgusting.
Our 26yo au pair drinks tea.
That’s my gen z sample size.

4,000 Calorie Iced Lardacinos

Does Gen Z drink coffee or do they drink Energy Drinks and Frapps?


I drink energy drinks, and no longer rink Frapps since I am not spending money going to Starbucks anymore.
