Good to know

Chef's tip

For an even more refreshing iced coffee, freeze the coffee in ice cube trays so it doesn't get too diluted! ❄️

Freezing : Can you freeze this recipe?

Not recommended

Freezing severely damages the texture of the milk and whipped cream (separation, crystals).

Storage : How long does it keep?

Prepare and consume immediately to preserve quality.

Making ahead : Can you make it the day before?

Same day

The ice melts, the whipped cream deflates, and the flavors deteriorate.

Reheating : How do you reheat it?

Not applicable. Cold drink. Designed to be consumed immediately as is.

Variations

Use plant-based milk instead of cow's milk.
Replace the vanilla syrup with caramel or hazelnut syrup.
Leave out the whipped cream for a lighter version.

Mistakes to avoid

Using coffee that is still hot: let it cool so the ice doesn't melt too fast.
Not blending enough: blend until the mixture is smooth and frothy.
Forgetting to fill the glass with ice before pouring in the drink.

Frequently asked questions

How do you make homemade iced coffee?

Blend 120 ml of chilled coffee, 60 ml of milk, one tablespoon of vanilla syrup, and a few ice cubes in a blender. Pour the frothy mixture into a glass filled with ice, then top with whipped cream.

Can you make iced coffee with plant-based milk?

Yes, the recipe works with plant-based milk or cow's milk, at 60 ml. The vanilla syrup adds sweetness, and the result stays frothy after blending.

How do you prepare the coffee ahead of time?

Brew the coffee fresh, then let it cool for about 2 hours before blending it with the milk. Very cold coffee keeps the ice cubes whole and makes a more refreshing drink.

How do you top an iced coffee?

Add whipped cream on top, then dust with cocoa powder. Slip a straw into the glass and enjoy right away, while the drink is still frothy and ice cold.
