The investigation was launched earlier this week after it was found that ice served in some UK Costa, Starbucks and Caffe Nero branches contained varying levels of faecal bacteria.
Stewart Petrie, director of Environmental Health, said that the results of the Jersey samples have come back showing no signs of bacteria.
‘We’ve spoken to the laboratory at the States Analyst and all the samples have come back negative for Costa Coffee and the other coffee shops that we took ice samples from,’ he said.
‘It’s reassuring for the public because if the weather heats up again, we can all continue to enjoy iced coffees with confidence.’
