- Brew Coffee: Brew your coffee as usual, then let it cool to room temperature before placing it in the refrigerator to chill thoroughly.
- Prepare Glass: Fill a glass with 1 cup of ice cubes, ready to hold your chilled coffee.
- Pour Coffee: Pour the chilled brewed coffee into the glass, leaving enough room at the top to add cream.
- Add Cream and Sweetener: Pour in 1-2 tablespoons of your preferred cream or creamer, then stir in 1-2 teaspoons of sugar or sweetener until dissolved.
- Serve: Stir everything together well and serve immediately cold for a refreshing iced coffee experience.
Notes
- To keep your iced coffee colder for longer, place your glass in the freezer for 15-20 minutes prior to preparing the drink.
- Use coffee ice cubes made by freezing brewed coffee in an ice cube tray to prevent your drink from becoming watery as the ice melts.
- For better sweetener incorporation, dissolve the sugar into the hot brewed coffee before chilling or use a simple syrup as an alternative sweetener.
- If pressed for time, brew coffee the night before and refrigerate overnight to have chilled coffee ready in the morning.
- To prepare coffee ice cubes, pour room temperature or cold brewed coffee into an ice cube tray and freeze until solid.
