How to Make Iced Coffee Recipe

Find out how to make ice coffee at home! This recipe is easy to adapt with milk or sweetener and is as delicious as an ice coffee from a café.


Pour milk into the ice coffee


Iced coffee is my preferred way of starting a warm spring or summer day. I’m sorry, hot coffee – if the temperatures are high enough, only the ice will be.

In recent years, ICED coffee drinks have exploded more and more popular. But I think that people often get them in coffee shops instead of doing them at home.

This recipe for ice coffee is here to change that! It is so simple that you can adapt it with your favorite milk or sweetener, and it is more affordable than ordering Iced coffee. If you are an Iced Coffee fan, try it out. I think you will love it!

How to make ice cream coffee at home

I love coffee with a rich, strong taste. The challenge of Eced coffee is that the ice diligates the coffee, which tastes watery. No thanks!

Start with cold or room temperature coffee to start with a spacious ice coffee. Not a hot coffee that melts the ice quickly.

Coffee options

Here are two great options:

  • Cools hot coffee – Brew hot coffee with your preferred method and then let it cool to room temperature (or take it off in the fridge).
  • Cold brew – In contrast to hot coffee, which is made from boiling water, cold brew is produced in cold water for 12 to 24 hours by an incidentally ground coffee and then aligned the coffee grounds. I absolutely love it. I think it has a more rich, smoother taste as a brewed hot coffee!
    If you buy it in the grocery store, you will probably see “Cold Brew Coffee” and “Cold Brew Conenter”. With this recipe either works, but if you buy the concentrate, you will probably want to dilute it with a little water before using it. It has a really intense, concentrated taste and can taste bitter by itself. You can also make your own cold brew with my recipe for cold Brew coffee!

Fill a glass with ice cubes to prepare ice coffee. Then pour the cooled coffee into the glass. All it off with your milk of choice. You can use any kind – al -milk milk, oat milk, soy milk and whole milk would work here, for example. You could even add a small cream or your preferred flavored camer.

Sweetener options

If you want, you can also sweeten your iced coffee to taste. Here are a few sweeteners that work well:

  • Sugar – Stir until it dissolves.
  • Simple syrup – Make my simple simple syrup recipe for a neutral taste or make your own, taste simple syrup. Try to mix it with vanilla extract to make a homemade vanilla syrup or a steep cinnamon sticks or lemon peel in it. Find instructions in the simple syrup blog contribution!
  • Ahorn syrup or agavennectar – prefer to sweeten your coffee in a natural way? These are their best bets.

Ice coffee recipe -Tipps

  • Strong coffee is best. You dilute the coffee with ice and milk in this recipe. For the best taste, start with a good, strong brew! Cold brew is ideal for this, and adding water into the coffee coffee concentrate of cold gives you complete control over how strong your coffee is. If you use brewed coffee, try it with a little more coffee grounds than normally for a stronger taste.
  • Progress. Do you don’t want to make hot coffee and then wait for it to cool down? Make it ahead! It lasts up to 4 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
  • Make coffee ice cubes. Don’t you want the ice cubes to water off your coffee? Make coffee and let it cool. Pour it into ice cubes and freeze it. Use Double coffee taste in this Eced coffee recipe!
