Notes
- For more concentrated coffee, replace your normal ice cubes with coffee ice cubes. Freeze leftover coffee as ice cubes to place in your instant iced coffee, preventing dilution and maintaining a rich coffee flavor.
- Also, if you would like a stronger coffee flavor, you could reduce the amount of water to double the strength of your coffee.
- If you do not want a bland, bitter coffee, play around with sweeteners. You could add honey, flavored syrups, or zero-calorie sweeteners for a healthier option. Take some inspiration from my suggested variations.
- For an expert tip, you could pour some plant milk over the coffee, followed by a small drizzle of milk, leaving a captivating swirl as the milk and coffee blend harmoniously.
- One more tip is to prepare your instant coffee the night before. Letting it sit overnight will allow the flavors to meld and will reduce the acidity of the brew.
