Iced coffee is our all-time favorite pick-me-up, especially on a hot afternoon — and, let's be real, sometimes you need caffeine and dessert simultaneously. There's something about the combination of toasty, roasty coffee and icy, creamy sweetness that sends shivers up our spine. Since experimenting with being your own barista is so much fun, throw on an apron and try your hand at making one of these unique iced coffee recipes.
Iced Coffee Recipes We Love
Iced Bulletproof Coffee
All you have to do for this recipe is throw all of your ingredients, including the vanilla, into a blender. It's an easy and delicious coffee that will give you lasting energy all day. (via Brit + Co)
Two-Ingredient Vietnamese Iced Coffee
Sometimes you want a strong, sweet iced coffee, but don't want to have to become a master barista to make it happen. This Vietnamese iced coffee uses sweetened condensed milk to give it big flavor with minimal effort. (via Brit + Co)
Topo Chico Iced Coffee
Topo Chico sparkling mineral water is ultra-refreshing on its own, but add it to iced coffee and you've got a serious pick-me-up on your hands. You can try different flavors, but we also think flavorless works on its own. (via Brit + Co)
Iced Ube Latte
Sick of ordering the same old iced latte flavors every time you make yourself a cup of coffee? Do yourself a favor and try this iced ube latte instead. (via Brit + Co)
Fresh Mint Iced Coffee
Muddled mint and lots of ice make this coffee perfect for the hottest days of summer. Add a splash of pistachio milk for a creamy drink that also gives you a refreshing dose of energy! (via Brit + Co)
Milky, Minty Coffee Popsicles
Technically, a popsicle made out of iced coffee is still iced coffee. Although you might be tempted to just drink this coffee, flavored with mint, instead of putting it into the popsicle molds. (via Brit + Co)
Lemonade Iced Coffee
Cold brew is diluted with a splash of lemonade for a refreshing, more caffeinated take on an Arnold Palmer, and we are definitely here for it. (via Brit + Co)
Simple Vanilla Coffee
Homemade vanilla simple syrup gives a fragrant hint of sweetness to your iced coffee, so you don't have to worry about trying to dissolve granulated sugar in your cold beverage. (via Brit + Co)
Rosewater Cardamom Iced Coffee
Making your own flavored creamer is an easy way to give your iced coffee a boost that you're sure to like. This recipe uses cardamom and rosewater to make a unique drink. (via Brit + Co)
Cinnamon Ice Cube Coffee
Keep ice cubes made from coffee infused with cinnamon in your freezer, and you can jazz up a boring glass of iced java whenever the fancy strikes. The best part? No more watered-down coffee. (via Brit + Co)
Everyone Will Love These Iced Coffee Recipes
Kahlua Iced Coffee
Perfect for when those afternoon coffee breaks turn into evening coffee breaks, this spiked version of iced coffee is everything you could ask for at five o'clock. If you're worried about having caffeine too late, just swap your usual java for decaf. (via Lick My Spoon)
Wild Child Iced Coffee
Adulthood can be stressful. Inject some fun into your day by topping your favorite iced coffee with a dollop of fluffy whipped cream and plenty of sprinkles. (via Brit + Co)
Caramel Mocha Coffee Concentrate
Don't be thrown off by the sugary title. This treat is sweetened naturally, without the processed sugars so it gets two thumbs up from us. (via Sunkissed Kitchen)
Toasted Coconut Shakerato
Shakerato is Italian iced coffee, made by shaking coffee with ice (and, in this case, toasted coconut syrup). Top your glass with some creamy coconut milk and rim your glass with toasted coconut flakes for a real treat. (via Simply Whisked)
We Can't Wait To Make These Coffee Recipes This Summer!
Samoa Iced Coffee
Tragically, Girl Scout cookies aren't available year round. Take matters into your own hand with this Samoa-inspired iced coffee in the morning, and make a Girl Scout cocktail after dinner. (via The Lovely Life)
Coconut Caramel Cold Brew
Something about the toasted flavor of caramel pairs beautifully with coconut. Pair with some cold brew coffee for a drink you'll want to sip on all day long. (via The Gourmet RD)
Iced Salted Honey Lattes
Salt and honey might sound like a strange combination, but think a little harder and you'll realize that's the flavor combination that makes spiced nuts, granola, and trail mix so irresistible. It does the same for these lattes, which are so tasty you'll want to get up early just to get a sip. (via Sweet Phi)
Viennese Iced Coffee
Dark, strong iced coffee helps tame the sweetness of vanilla ice cream to make this dessert drink. It's the perfect snack for any and every warm evening. (via Li'l Vienna)
Vegan Iced Cinnamon Mocha
Once you make this cinnamon-infused chocolate sauce (in just one minute, no less!), you'll be able to transform all manner of beverages and desserts. Stir some into your morning cup of Joe to give your drink a spicy kick. (via Vegetarian Gastronomy)
Overnight New Orleans-Style Iced Coffee
If you want a fancy caffeine boost in the morning, make things easy by starting with some store-bought coffee concentrate. Infuse it with cinnamon and chicory (a New Orleans classic) overnight, and you'll be ready to conquer the world in the a.m. (via Hummingbird High)
