You may be thinking of cold brew, which is usually more expensive due to the higher coffee-to-water ratio. A standard ‘iced coffee’ at most coffee shops is espresso-based

This is not true.

A standard iced coffee is just regular brewed coffee that is then put in the fridge. (Which is different from cold brew which is brewed in the fridge.)

Absolutely not espresso-based.

Huh. I never drink cold coffee so I always assumed they were one and the same. Thanks for the correction.
