Lemonade falls under which beverage category at Starbucks?

Lemonade is classified as a cold beverage at Starbucks due to its refreshing, chilled nature, typically served over ice. This category encompasses beverages designed to be served cold, which aligns with the characteristics of lemonade as a thirst-quenching option, especially suitable for warmer weather. Cold beverages often include iced teas, iced coffees, and various plant-based drinks.

Other categories, such as hot beverages, are clearly defined by drinks that are served at a higher temperature, while smoothies involve blended fruit and other ingredients, which lemonade does not fit. The "Other" category would generally include items that don’t neatly fall into the standard classifications, but lemonade is a well-established menu item that fits within the cold beverages spectrum. Thus, categorizing lemonade as a cold beverage accurately reflects its intended presentation and consumption at Starbucks.
