Woman shares sneaky iced coffee hack that cuts price in half

An Aussie woman has shared her money-saving hack for scoring cheap iced lattes made with alternative milk and a double shot of espresso.Iced coffees are notoriously expensive, often costing double that of a regular hot coffee, for reasons unclear to many who enjoy the trendy beverage.So it’s little wonder why her video went viral after she revealed how she managed to score two double-shot oat iced lattes for just $8, half of what it typically costs.In her clip, @contentbyzara and her partner walk to their local cafe on the Gold Coast, each holding a glass jar filled with oat milk and ice.When they arrive at the cafe, they order two double espressos priced at $4 each and pour those into their BYO jars.And that’s it!
