identity
Michael Ocampo’s November 2010 photograph and description preserve this earlier version’s appearance, before the cold-brew generation. [1]
history
The photographed serving dates to November 2010, and Antioch’s March 2012 menu lists “latte mocha freeze.” In December 2017, Aspen executive Dan Weingart described Costco’s Latte Freeze concentrate moving from hot-brew to cold-brew extraction in Finlays’ magazine. Costco Connect reported a staggered change the following January. [1] [2] [5] [3]
nutrition
The historical sheet separates Mocha Freeze and Latte Freeze. Its full printed observations remain below; neither establishes the nutrition of the later cold-brew recipes or the photographed cup. [4]

distinctions
Ocampo called the pictured drink a personal favorite and an inexpensive purchase. His account belongs to that historical serving, with location unknown. [1]
“Hot brew” in the supplier history describes extraction of the coffee concentrate. The finished drink was still frozen; the term does not mean a hot latte or hot mocha. [5]

Sources & photo rights
A food-court nutrition sheet marked revised December 21, 2011 lists “Mocha Freeze,” item 345839, at 16.3 oz and 320 calories. It prints 7 g fat, 49 g carbohydrate, 46 g sugars, 13 g protein and less than 1 g fiber. The sheet also has a separate Latte Freeze row, so the two drinks should not share a nutrient panel merely because a menu groups their names. [4]
This readable copy is a third-party mirror linked from a July 2012 Costco blog. It names no country or warehouse and has not been authenticated against an operator-hosted original. The printed ounces are preserved without assuming a fluid-ounce volume or assigning that size to the photographed 2010 cup. These are qualified historical figures, not verified nutrition for every original mocha freeze or its later cold-brew replacement. [4]
The same mirrored 2011 sheet separately lists Latte Freeze: 15.3 oz, 240 calories, 7 g fat, 32 g carbohydrate, 31 g sugars, 13 g protein and 160 mg sodium. Those figures belong to that named row, not the 16.3 oz Mocha Freeze row. Neither panel establishes the recipe or serving of the later cold-brew drinks. [4]
The 2018 transition account relies on an anonymous tip, and the supplier gave no warehouse rollout schedule. Capture dates, local-menu reports and concentrate history remain distinct. The original 2010 photograph retains its license and unknown-location caption. [1] [3] [5]
