Iced Caramel Coffee is a refreshing cold coffee drink sweetened with rich caramel syrup, served over ice and topped with milk or cream. It’s simple to make and customizable to your taste.

Ingredients

  • Brewed coffee (strong or cold brew) – provides the bold, flavorful base
  • Caramel syrup – adds rich, buttery sweetness
  • Ice cubes – chill the drink and enhance texture
  • Milk or cream – balances the coffee and caramel with smoothness
  • Whipped cream (optional) – adds indulgence as a finishing touch
  • Sea salt (optional) – enhances caramel flavor
  • Vanilla extract (optional) – adds depth and complexity

Instructions

  1. Brew a strong cup of coffee or prepare cold brew concentrate.
  2. Allow the coffee to cool or chill in the refrigerator.
  3. Fill a tall glass with ice cubes.
  4. Add caramel syrup to the glass to taste.
  5. Pour cooled coffee over the ice and caramel.
  6. Stir well to combine caramel and coffee.
  7. Add milk or cream to your desired level of creaminess.
  8. Top with whipped cream and a drizzle of caramel, if desired.
  9. Chill for 10 minutes to set and enhance flavor integration before serving.

Notes

  • Brew coffee stronger than usual to prevent dilution from ice.
  • Use high-quality caramel syrup for the best flavor.
  • Chill brewed coffee thoroughly before pouring over ice.
  • Stir well to ensure even distribution of caramel.
  • Customize with flavor add-ins or alternative milks to suit your preference.
