Iced Coffee with Vanilla-Honey Foam
This Iced Coffee with Vanilla-Honey Foam & Coffee Ice Cubes is an elevated, barista-style drink you can make at home. Strong brewed coffee is chilled and served over coffee ice cubes (so it never gets watered down), then topped with a luscious cold vanilla-honey foam that gently floats on top. A perfect blend of bold, creamy, and cool — ideal for summer mornings or afternoon pick-me-ups.
Ingredients
- 2 cups strong brewed coffee (cooled)
- 1 tbsp sugar (optional)
- 1 cup brewed coffee (cooled, for freezing)
- 1/2 cup cold milk
- 1 tbsp honey
- 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp cocoa powder or cinnamon (optional, for garnish)
- Whipped cream (optional, for garnish)
Cooking Steps
Step 2
In a milk frother (cold setting) or using a handheld frother, combine cold milk, honey, and vanilla extract. Froth until thick and airy (about 30–60 seconds). Set aside.
Step 3
Place 4–6 coffee ice cubes into each glass. Pour 1 cup of cooled coffee over the cubes.
Step 4
Spoon or pour the vanilla-honey foam over the iced coffee. Let it gently float for a layered look.
Step 5
Dust with cocoa powder or cinnamon for a café-style finish. Add whipped cream if feeling fancy. Serve immediately with a straw or tall spoon.
