In the iced drinks sequence, which step adds ice?

• A. Pull shots
• B. Add syrup
• C. Add shots to cup
• D. Add scoop of ice

Answer: (D)

In iced drinks, ice is treated as a separate assembly component that sets the chill and controls dilution. After the flavor and espresso components are prepared, the drink is brought to the cup, and ice is added to finish the build. That’s why the step that adds ice is the one that literally places ice into the cup to create the cold, ready-to-make beverage. Pulling shots is the espresso extraction step, and adding syrup is about flavoring. Adding shots to the cup is about pouring the espresso into the cup. None of those introduce the ice itself, which is why the ice step is the correct action.
