  • Cold water mixed with instant iced coffee in a glass.
    In a large 8-12 oz glass add the 1-2 tbsp instant coffee granules and 2 tbsp hot/warm water. Mix to melt and dissolve the instant coffee.

    Add the 6-8 oz of cold water depending on the size of your cup. Mix to combine.

Notes

Never add in plain coarse sugar into a cold drink, it wont dissolve! Instead to sweeten your coffee you can:
  • Add sugar to step one and dissolve with the warm water. 
  • Make a simple syrup- Add 1 part sugar to 1 part water in a small saucepan. Bring to a boil and reduce to a simmer and cook for 5 minutes until the consistency is thick. Use this in cold drinks to sweeten.
  • Use a sweetener like stevia.
  • Use a sweetened creamer.
