To ask if you like Iced Coffee?

Having always had a hot coffee, I recently tried the Coffee with the cold water instead of hot.
I couldnt decide whether I liked it or not? Probably not tbh.

Wondered about others? Do you like it? Is it better in the summer when its hot?

Yeah I love iced coffee. But I wouldn't get one in the winter! I guess the point is when you want a coffee but it's just too hot out and it doesn't feel like a nice refreshing drink.

RingingInMyEars · 23/12/2023 15:14

No i don't but my (adult) daughter loves it!

chipsandpeas · 23/12/2023 15:14

yes but its better making it hot then cooling down with ice, tastes much better imo

Definitely this.

I wouldn't make it with just cold water from the tap.

It is great on a hot day, very refreshing. Not sure I would bother on December.

justalittlesnoel · 23/12/2023 15:22

Love love love it!! Drink it iced all year round!

Mairzydotes · 23/12/2023 15:22

No , I'm not a fan .

However, I can drink' hot ' coffee that has cooled down, which was handy when my kids were babies .

OldTinHat · 23/12/2023 15:24

🤢

That's all I have to say.

Ditto iced tea!

samestyle · 23/12/2023 15:24

I was addicted to it in the summer, I haven't bothered at this time of year.

OneTC · 23/12/2023 15:26

I'm not a really big fan of cold brew but I like making an espresso straight into a cup of ice

And yeah summer only for me

Vroomfondleswaistcoat · 23/12/2023 15:28

I like 'proper' Melbourne iced coffee, it's delicious! I even quite like the little cans and bottles of it sold in shops over here, which is odd, because I don't like hot coffee all that much!

LisaD1 · 23/12/2023 15:28

No, I really don’t like it. Tried a xouple
of times but no.

CarolinaInTheMorning · 23/12/2023 15:29

I like my coffee hot, but I love iced tea.

Coconutter24 · 23/12/2023 15:46

I love hot and iced coffee. How did you make the iced coffee? I make a double espresso, put ice in a cup pour milk over ice then add the double espresso over the top…. Perfect 👌

Dee03 · 23/12/2023 15:57

yep, i love it.
I drink it daily and prefer it to hot coffee

margotrose · 23/12/2023 16:01

Yes! I especially like it done properly, with ice-cream and hot coffee. Almost like a milkshake - mm!

CyberCritical · 23/12/2023 16:01

Love it, has to be very very cold with lots of ice though.

GETTINGLIKEMYMOTHER · 23/12/2023 16:02

Only during a hot summer. Preferably on a beach.

JamSandle · 23/12/2023 16:06

Not for me. But I'm not a coffee fan generally.

Krustykrabpizza · 23/12/2023 16:17

Yes I prefer it to hot coffee, don't think your supposed to make it with cold water though. .

Scottishdreams1991 · 23/12/2023 16:29

I fucking love it no matter the weather. Come snow or ice i have a iced latte in hand. My xmas drinks or shit lots of my favourite too

Ladysodor · 23/12/2023 16:32

It’s absolutely disgusting! I don’t actually believe anyone likes the taste.

Redglitter · 23/12/2023 16:37

No! Coffee should be hot

UnicornGlitter · 23/12/2023 16:37

I love iced coffee but can't stand hot coffee or anything remotely coffee flavoured.
