    Blended iced coffee is definitely older than the 1980s, though it wasn’t widely popular I think

    Either that or stories of grandma making her coffee, putting ice in it, and running it through the food processor to make “a coffee treat every morning” are actually evidence that Grandma was 30 years ahead of the curve

    ETA: mentioned it to my wife and she told me that her uncle apparently ran a small coffee shop in TX in the late 70s that did that exact concept, and he claimed that the idea was widespread before he got the idea to put it on his menu for money. So it’s definitely older than the 1980s
