We've gathered the summer's best iced coffee recipes and basic recipes in one place. The recipes are easy to make at home in the kitchen with this year's summer coffee.
Classic black iced coffee - three ways to brew iced coffee
ICED COFFEE AT KALITA
15 g coffee (slightly finer than filter ground)
1.5 dl water (approx. 96°)
100 g ice cubes
Moisten the filter in the filter holder and pour away excess water. Put the coffee in the filter holder. The grind of the coffee is slightly finer than filter ground.
Fill the jug with 100 g of ice cubes. Brew the hand brew as normal, but use a little less water than usual and take a few breaks during the brewing process. The pour time should be about 1:30 min.
ICED COFFEE IN A FUNNEL
60 g filter ground coffee
20 g sugar
Coffee funnel
400 g ice cubes
Fill the filter holder with coffee. Sprinkle 20 g of sugar/alternative sweetener over the coffee (can be omitted). Fill the serving jug with ice cubes before brewing. Fill the water container with 6 dl of water. Brew the coffee over the jug filled with ice. The brewed iced coffee is served in a glass with ice cubes.
ICED COFFEE ON AEROPRESS
18 g filter ground coffee
1.5 dl cold water
100 g ice cubes
sugar brine (can be omitted)
aeropress
Pour the coffee into the aeopress and start the timer as you pour in the water. Stir well and put the plunger on. Let it steep for one minute before pressing the coffee over a glass with ice cubes.
For a fresher brew, you can omit the sugar brine. Sugar brine is easily made by stirring one part sugar into one part boiling water.
We recommend using African coffee for tart, fruity and summery brews. Summer coffee from Kenya - Gatugi is particularly suitable as an iced coffee on Aeropress.
Round and rich iced coffee with a sweet and summery taste of coconut
RICH ICED COFFEE WITH COCONUT MILK
2.5 dl black iced coffee
ice cubes
0.5 dl coconut milk (light variant)*
Make black iced coffee using a hand brew or funnel - see recipe above. Fill a glass with ice cubes and pour over iced coffee. Leave room for coconut milk. Slowly pour the milk onto the top ice cube to create a layered drink. Add more coconut milk to taste if desired.
*It is important that you use a light coconut milk as a fattier version will separate and become grainy.
Tip: You can experiment with different types of milk. If you want a sweeter brew, you can add sugar to the filter holder together with the coffee or sugar brine to the finished iced drink.
We recommend Summer Coffee from El Salvador - Bourbon Jungle for this recipe. This coffee goes particularly well with milk.
Tade lemonade - a delicious iced coffee
TADE LIMONADE
2.5 dl black iced coffee made with Sommerkaffe Tade, Ethiopia
Lemonade (preferably sparkling)
Ice cubes
Garnish (optional)
Make black iced coffee using a hand brew or funnel - see recipe above. Fill a glass with ice cubes. Fill 60% of the glass with lemonade, then pour iced coffee into the glass.
Tip: Feel free to use lemon and rosemary as a garnish.
We recommend Summer Coffee from Ethiopia - Tade for this recipe. This is a delicate and refreshing coffee with a floral aroma of jasmine and lemon balm. It tastes of bergamot, citrus and honey and therefore goes perfectly with tart lemonade. If you don't have this, we recommend another fresh and fruity coffee from Africa.
Con panna al freddo - a rich classic
CON PANNA AL FREDDO
10-12 large ice cubes
1 double espresso*
2 cl sugar brine
A little cream
2 shakers, one for coffee and one for cream
*If you don't have an espresso machine at home, you can brew in a mocha pot or make a strong brew on the Aeropress.
Place ice cubes, sugar syrup and pre-brewed espresso in a shaker. Shake the espresso and ice vigorously and pour over a glass with ice cubes. Top with cream that you have shaken (or whipped) to a fluffy but still liquid consistency. Slowly pour it onto the top ice cube to create a layered drink.
Tip: as a garnish, you can sprinkle a little espresso, cocoa powder or grated nutmeg. You can also squeeze a little orange zest on top for extra flavor.
We recommend Sommerespresso from Colombia and Ethiopia for this recipe
