• Ice cubes

Instructions

1. Step 1: Brew a cup of your favorite coffee and allow it to cool to room temperature or chill in the refrigerator.

Tips & Variations

• Use almond or oat milk for a dairy-free alternative.
• Add a touch of sweetener like honey, agave, or sugar if you prefer a sweeter drink.

• Try adding a splash of coffee liqueur for an adult version.

Storage

FAQs

Can I use instant coffee instead of brewed coffee?
