For hot tea flavor scoops ratio, which statement is true?

• A. One scoop total no matter the size
• B. Two scoops per cup
• C. One scoop per size
• D. Three scoops per batch

Answer: (A)

The main idea being tested is keeping flavor strength consistent across different cup sizes by standardizing how much flavoring is used. In this approach, a fixed amount of flavoring is added for each order, and the final cup volume is reached by adding more or less liquid, not by changing the amount of flavoring. This makes the flavor predictable for every drink and simplifies training and operations, since staff don’t have to adjust the scoop count for each cup size.

If more flavoring were used for larger cups, the taste would become stronger in bigger sizes and inconsistent overall. If the flavor amount were tied to the size (varying by cup), different orders would taste different even if their volumes were similar. If flavoring were calculated per batch, the taste could vary depending on how many drinks come from a batch, leading to uneven strength from one batch to the next.
