Ingredients
  

For the Coffee Base
  • 1/2 cup strongly brewed coffee 120 ml
  • 1 tsp granulated sugar 4 g
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract 1 ml; optional
For the Creamy Iced Coffee
  • 1/2 cup cold whole milk 120 ml
  • 1 cup ice cubes 140 g
  • 1 tbsp cold water 15 ml; optional
For the Optional Garnish
  • 1 tbsp lightly whipped cream 15 ml
  • 1 tsp chocolate syrup 5 ml
  • Small pinch of cocoa powder

Equipment

  • Coffee Maker: Brew strong coffee.
  • Measuring Jug: Measure and cool the coffee.
  • Coffee Filter: Remove coffee grounds.
  • Tall 16 oz glass Serve the finished drink.
  • Long Spoon: Stir coffee and milk.
  • Measuring Spoon: Measure sugar and flavorings.

Method
 

  1. Prepare 1/2 cup (120 ml) of strong coffee using water around 195°F to 205°F (90°C to 96°C). Brew until the coffee develops a rich aroma and deep brown color.
  2. Add 1 teaspoon of sugar and the optional vanilla extract while the coffee is warm. Stir for 20 to 30 seconds until the sugar dissolves completely.
  3. Allow the coffee to cool briefly, then refrigerate for approximately 30 minutes until cold. It should feel cool to the touch before mixing with ice.
  4. Add 1 cup of ice cubes to a tall glass and pour the chilled coffee over them. The ice should remain mostly solid rather than melting immediately.
  5. Pour in 1/2 cup (120 ml) cold milk and stir gently for 10 seconds until evenly combined. Taste, adjust the strength with a little cold water if needed, and add optional toppings before serving.
    6. Use coffee ice cubes instead of regular ice to keep your iced coffee flavorful as the cubes melt.

Notes

  • Brew coffee slightly stronger than usual for the best flavor.
  • Dissolve sugar while the coffee is warm.
  • Use cold milk and chilled coffee to prevent rapid ice melting.
  • Substitute oat milk or almond milk for a dairy free version.
Storage: Store plain brewed coffee in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Prepared iced coffee containing milk should be refrigerated at 40°F (4°C) or colder and consumed within 24 hours for the best quality. Do not store the drink with ice because melting will dilute the flavor. Freeze leftover brewed coffee in ice cube trays for up to 1 month.
