Utilize the instant coffee granules of your choice. If you like, you can also use decaffeinated coffee. I prefer instant Nescafe coffee.
A small amount of hot water is required to dissolve the instant coffee granules.

Ice – a lot of ice to fulfill your iced coffee desires.
Sweetener (optional) – I do not sweeten my coffee, but you may use your preferred sweetener, such as brown sugar, white sugar, simple syrup, maple syrup, honey, or coconut sugar.
Again, milk and cream can be used as you see fit. I prefer plant-based milks and creams, but you can use cow’s milk with any desired fat content. You may omit the cream if you so like.

I prefer Almond Breeze Unsweetened Coconut Milk and Silk’s Oat + Coconut Half and Half for this recipe.
