- 1/4 cup half-and-half or milk alternative
- 2–3 teaspoons flavored coffee syrup
- 4–6 coffee ice cubes
Instructions
- Prepare the glass: Fill a large glass halfway with coffee ice cubes to keep the drink cold without diluting its flavor.
- Add syrup: Pour 2 to 3 teaspoons of your favorite flavored coffee syrup over the ice cubes to add sweetness and flavor.
- Pour coffee: Slowly pour chilled brewed coffee into the glass until it’s about three-quarters full, letting it combine with the syrup and ice.

- Mix and serve: Stir the iced coffee well to blend all the ingredients together, then serve immediately for the best refreshing taste.

- Adjust the flavored syrup quantity to your preferred sweetness level.
- Try different milk alternatives like almond, oat, or soy milk for a dairy-free version.
- Make coffee ice cubes in advance by freezing brewed coffee in an ice cube tray.
- Serve immediately to enjoy the optimal temperature and flavor.
