The phrase comes from the full Korean sentence 얼어 죽어도 아이스 아메리카노, literally “iced Americano even if I freeze to death.” It likely spread through everyday cafe culture, social media, and office/student jokes during the 2010s as iced Americano became a default Korean coffee order; the exact first use is unclear.
