Dear Lykkers, have you ever dreamed of making a coffee-style iced cappuccino right in your own kitchen?

Imagine a tall, chilled glass filled with smooth coffee, creamy frothy milk, and glistening ice cubes — all completed with fresh coffee beans, a cozy milk jug, and your trusty coffee grinder nearby.

Today, we'll walk you through this step-by-step. It's easier than you think, and the result is totally worth it.

What Exactly Are We Making?

We're going to make a classic iced cappuccino — a cold version of the beloved hot cappuccino. It features:

- A tall glass of chilled coffee

- Cold frothed milk

- Ice cubes

- Fresh coffee beans for aroma and decoration

- A side milk jug

- All made with the help of a coffee grinder and whole beans for maximum freshness

- It's not just a drink, it's an experience — one we can fully enjoy at home.

Ingredients You'll Need

Here's a list of all the ingredients and tools we need:

- 2 tablespoons (10g) of whole coffee beans

- 80ml hot water (for brewing coffee)

- 150ml cold fresh milk

- 6–8 ice cubes

- 10ml liquid sweetener (like simple syrup or maple syrup, optional)

- Extra coffee beans (for garnish)

- A small milk jug (optional but adds flair)

Tools needed:

- Coffee grinder

- Coffee maker or espresso machine (or instant coffee if preferred)

- Handheld milk frother or whisk

- Tall glass (350ml or more)

Step-by-Step Instructions

Let's walk through each part of the process:

Step 1: Grind the Beans

We begin by grinding about 2 tablespoons (10g) of whole coffee beans. Fresh grinding releases the coffee's aroma and gives our cappuccino a bold, rich flavor.

Step 2: Brew the Coffee

Using a coffee maker or espresso machine, brew 80ml of strong black coffee with the freshly ground beans. If you don't have a machine, you can use 1 tablespoon of instant coffee with 80ml hot water. Set the coffee aside to cool slightly or chill it quickly over ice.

Step 3: Froth the Milk

Pour 150ml of cold milk into a bowl or frothing pitcher. Use a handheld frother or whisk to whip the milk until thick foam forms on top. This will take about 30 seconds to 1 minute. The colder the milk, the better the foam!

Step 4: Sweeten if Desired

Add 10ml of liquid sweetener into the milk (or coffee) if you like a bit of sweetness. Mix well before pouring.

Step 5: Build the Drink

Grab your tall glass and add 6–8 ice cubes to fill about halfway. Pour in the cooled black coffee first. Then gently pour the frothed milk on top. Spoon the foam carefully to float on top.

Step 6: Garnish and Serve

For that final touch, sprinkle a few whole coffee beans on top or around the base of the glass. Place a small milk jug next to the drink — this gives a professional coffee vibe and lets anyone add extra milk if they wish.

Enjoying the Coffee Moment

And just like that, we've created our very own iced cappuccino — cool, creamy, and full of rich coffee flavor. Each sip brings a refreshing chill and smooth texture, perfect for bright mornings or peaceful breaks in the afternoon. With the coffee grinder nearby and the beans scattered around, the whole setup feels like a cozy coffee right at home.

So Lykkers, why not treat yourselves to this simple pleasure today? Let’s keep brewing joy together — and when you try this iced cappuccino, don’t forget to tell us how it went. We’re excited to hear all about your version!
