    10 Summer Coffee Drinks You NEED To Try

    Published: Jun 11, 2020 · Modified: May 2, 2023 by Tatiana Kamakura · Leave a Comment · This post may contain affiliate links

    With summer in full swing, all I crave are endless iced coffee drinks.

    As a major coffee addict, skipping my daily caffeine fix is simply not an option—but drinking it hot? That’s just torture in this heat. Can you relate?

    Two glasses of dirty matcha latte.

    If so, don’t worry, fellow coffee lover—I’ve got you covered! From a refreshing cold brew lemonade to the viral Dalgona coffee, these iced coffee recipes will keep you cool, caffeinated, and completely satisfied all summer long.

    Every recipe has been taste-tested and approved by me (and my very picky husband), so you know they’re good! Plus, they’re easy to make at home, saving you money while keeping your energy levels high.

    So skip the coffee shop lines, stay cool, and enjoy these delicious iced coffee drinks from the comfort of home!

    Basic Technique for Brewing Iced Coffee

    Many of these recipes start with simple cold brew coffee—and the best part? You don’t have to buy it! Making cold brew at home is incredibly easy and much cheaper than store-bought versions.

    All you need is coffee, water, a jar, and a way to strain it. A coffee dripper with a filter works perfectly, but you can also use a fine-mesh sieve or a French press. With just a little patience, you’ll have smooth, rich cold brew ready to use in all your favorite iced coffee drinks!
