What temperature should iced coffee be?

Whether it’s a cafe frappe, an iced coffee mocha or just an iced coffee with milk, there is nothing more refreshing on a hot summer afternoon, when your perched on the balcony of your penthouse apartment watching the world go by beneath you! Unless of course, you’re lying on a Caribbean beach soaking up the sun sipping a chilled Mai Tai!

Ice cold or fridge cold, it’s really up to you how just how cold you brew iced coffee. It boils down to the texture of the iced and individual preference. Some like it freezing cold, smooth and creamy, I prefer mine with crushed ice – And creamy! A slight feeling of déjà vu just came over me as I wrote that, remembering a Greek vacation not so long ago!

There are several ways of making a cold-brewed iced coffee, the simplest of all is to just pour a very strong coffee, usually a hot espresso or cappuccino, over some icy cold milk after the required sweetener has been added. This method is usually adopted busy coffee shops, where time is of the essence.

About Andy Horton

I am a coffee aficionado and green tea enthusiast! I guess I can 'blame' for this because of my parents! As I was growing up my mother was always sipping a cup of coffee and my Dad well, as he has passed on - we celebrate 'national tea drinking day' on his birthday every year. It seemed as if tea was his 'Popeye's Spinach'. On a more serious topic, healthy living plays a huge part in my life and that of my families. So you will find subjects on this website relating to health. You can subscribe to my free daily newspaper at The Coffee Alera Daily and find me on Twitter and Facebook.
