How many shots are in a small iced Americano?

A small iced Americano contains 2 shots of espresso. This measurement is standard across many coffee shops, including Black Rock Coffee Bar, and is designed to provide a balanced flavor and adequate caffeine level in a smaller drink size. The espresso shots are diluted with cold water and ice, which creates the signature bold yet smooth taste of an Americano. Offering 2 shots allows for a more robust flavor profile than a single shot without overwhelming the drink with too much espresso.

This standard sizing helps maintain consistency and ensures that customers receive a quality product across all locations. The other options, while varying in the number of espresso shots, do not apply to the small iced Americano when following the established beverage recipe.
