Ingredients

  • 1 cup brewed coffee, cooled
  • Ice
  • 2 tablespoons milk or cream of your choice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla syrup or vanilla extract
  • Sweetener (optional)

Instructions

  1. Brew your favorite coffee and allow it to cool.
  2. Fill a glass with ice.
  3. Pour the coffee over the ice.
  4. Add milk, cream, and vanilla.
  5. Stir well and adjust sweetness to your preference.

Tips for Better Flavor

For a smoother iced coffee, try brewing a slightly stronger coffee since the ice will dilute the flavor.

Cold brew is another excellent option for a naturally smooth and refreshing coffee experience.
