How to make Iced Coffee

It’s a hot day, you still need your caffeine, but a hot drink just isn’t going to cut it – sound familiar?

Or perhaps you run an awesome business and serve coffee to customers.

Jump to how-to ?

This Iced Coffee is a great alternative to hot coffee on a warm day, and the best bit is – you already have all of the ingredients!

In this guide, we will show you how to make an iced coffee – your favourite drink, only cold!

To make Iced Coffee you will need:

A glass

Sugar

Espresso (or a double shot of strong hot coffee)

Milk

Ice

Let’s do this

First add 2 teaspoons of sugar into your glass. We used demerara sugar when we made ours.

Next you need to add your coffee.

If you are using an espresso machine, pour a double shot straight from the machine into your glass. As the coffee is hot, it will dissolve your sugar into the coffee.

If you don’t have an espresso machine, brew a shot of very strong, hot coffee, using your chosen device then follow the same steps as above.

Give your coffee and sugar a stir to combine

Now add your milk. Pour it into your glass and stop with around 1 inch spare at the top.

Now all you need is your ice.

Add this to your glass (with or without the splash).

Top Tip – it’s important to add the ice last.

If the ice is in the glass when you add your coffee, the coffee will instantly cool before melting the sugar.

Voila – a delicious cold Iced Coffee to enjoy on a hot day.
