7 Brew Brewista Practice Test

Which of the following is true regarding the total liquid in a large light ice drink?

1. It is less than 20 ounces

2. It contains 22 ounces of liquid

3. It typically has 24 ounces of liquid

4. It contains no ice

The correct answer is: It contains 22 ounces of liquid

In the context of a large light ice drink, the correct statement is that it contains 22 ounces of liquid. This specific measurement is pertinent because, when serving a large drink, the "light ice" designation indicates that the drink is filled with less ice than a standard serving, allowing for more liquid to fill the cup compared to a regular ice drink. The standard practice in beverage serving often accommodates for ice taking up space in the cup, meaning that with light ice, customers can expect a substantial amount of fluid. While it’s common for large drinks to be found in 24-ounce servings, the reduction of ice means that the actual liquid content is ideally adjusted to 22 ounces, aligning with customer preferences for a higher ratio of beverage to ice. Other options do not align with the standard serving sizes. A drink being less than 20 ounces would not typically qualify as a large drink. While 24 ounces is a common size for large drinks, with the light ice specification, it doesn't accurately represent the actual volume of liquid by itself. Lastly, stating that it contains no ice goes against the principle of ice inclusion in cold drinks; even with light ice, ice is still present to keep the beverage cool.
