How to Make the PERFECT Iced Coffee! | Katiexobeauty in the kitchen
Hey everyone! I hope your having a great Wednesday so far. Today I decided to share another recipe. This one isn't as exact as my last one, but I thought it would be fun to share with you. I'm happy to be sharing my tips on making the "perfect" iced coffee.
I like to call myself a coffee enthusiast. I'm especially an iced coffee enthusiast! I drink iced coffee year round. Wether If it's 100 degrees or -10 I'm drinking my iced coffee. Iced Coffee is one of those things that is all or nothing for me. Well anyways let's get to it

What you will need
- Your favorite cup or mug
- ice
- coffee (wether if that's ground coffee, coffee beans, or a k cup!)
- creamer of your choice ( my favorite is the international delight Carmel macchiato creamer!)
- a straw of your choice (This is personal preference, but I thought I would mention it anyways!)
Step 1 (Prep your glass/mug!)
First things first your gonna need your favorite cup or mug. Sometimes I will use a traditional coffee mug and other times I will use a glass like this one. Be sure to fill up your cup with ice. This step is personal preference regarding how much ice you put in your cup, but I personally like to fill the cup up with ice almost all the way. I usually leave a half of an inch empty from ice just so the coffee isn't too watered down. I also like to do this before I brew the coffee because it ices the coffee as it brews which I think makes the coffee colder and more enjoyable.
Step 2 (pick your coffee of choice!)
I have a Kurieg (check one out here!)
so personally I always use that, but if you have a coffee maker the process is generally pretty similar. I like using this Kirkland blend k-cup from Costco. (try them here )
This one is a light roast which is great because fun fact light roast coffee actually has more caffeine in it. I brew 8 oz of coffee.
It really depends on my mood for the day with what I want to brew.
Step 3 (brew the coffee!)
and then I brew my coffee which literally takes no time which is why I love the Kurieg!
Step 4 (pour in the creamer!)
Now is the time to pour In your creamer! This is something I eyeball I usually only add a little bit. I would saw maybe a tablespoon if anything. It's all personal preference based on your desired coffee taste.
Step 5 ( And Enjoy!)
Enjoy your coffee deliciousness! I love sipping my coffee as I get ready, eat breakfast, or as I sit outside in the morning with my pups.
I hope you guys enjoyed this post! I've gotten lots of requests to do a coffee mug collection and that is coming hopefully soon!
