Making a refreshing homemade cold coffee is very and simple. With no need for expensive equipment, you can enjoy a customizable and budget-friendly coffee shop experience right in your kitchen.
Dissolve 2 tablespoons of instant coffee or espresso powder in 1/2 cup of hot water. Stir until the coffee granules are completely dissolved.
In a separate container, add 2-3 tablespoons of sugar (adjust to taste). Pour the hot coffee over the sugar and stir until it's well combined, ensuring the sugar dissolves thoroughly.
Allow the sweetened coffee mixture to cool down to room temperature, either on the counter or by refrigerating it for a few minutes.
Once the coffee mixture has cooled, add 1 cup of milk to it. For an extra creamy texture, include 1/4 cup of heavy cream. Stir until all the ingredients are perfectly blended.
Fill a glass with ice cubes and pour the coffee mixture over them. The ice will chill the coffee and give it that signature cold coffee texture.
If you desire added flavor, consider adding a dash of vanilla extract or drizzling some chocolate syrup over the top.
Garnish your homemade cold coffee with a coffee bean or a sprinkle of cocoa powder for that coffee shop feel.
Enjoy your refreshing and delicious homemade cold coffee!
