Hot to Make Nescafe Iced Coffee?

Nescafe Iced Coffee is a simple, refreshing cold coffee drink made with Nescafe instant coffee, milk, ice, and sugar. 

Unlike brewed or café-style espresso-based iced lattes, this version is beginner-friendly.

Ingredients:

Here are the ingredients that you will need to make the best Nescafe iced coffee recipe.

• 2 teaspoons Nescafe Instant Coffee: Besides this, you can also try others like Nescafe Gold for a smooth taste or Nescafe Classic for a stronger flavor. And, if you want a social drink, you can also try Nescafe Azera iced coffee recipe with espresso powder.
• ½ cup hot water: How can we make Nescafe coffee without it? It’s the ingredients that will dissolve the coffee granules.
• 1–2 tablespoons sugar: You can use regular white sugar or any alternative like honey or maple syrup. But if you want just a little healthy, then you should use stevia.
• 1 cup chilled milk: Whole milk will give the best texture for coffee, which is creamy. But you can also use other milks like almond milk, oat milk, or coconut milk for a dairy-free iced coffee recipe.
• 1 cup ice cubes: This is very important to make coffee cold and refreshing. And, I recommend crushed ice for a café-style texture.

Optional extras:

You have 4 options: you can use Vanilla extract if you want a sweet aroma, cocoa powder, or chocolate if you wanna pair with cookies like Crumbl Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chip Cookies.

Besides this, whipped cream, caramel, or hazelnut syrup are good options, especially for Nescafe iced latte caramel.

Instructions:

This is how I recreate the Nescafe Iced Coffee Recipe TikTok in my home. So, follow my method as it is for a creamy, café-style drink.

Step 1: Dissolve the Coffee

Firstly, you have to fill a small bowl with the following ingredients:

• 2 teaspoons of Nescafe instant coffee
• 1–2 tablespoons of sugar. 
•  ½ cup hot water. 

Then, you wanna whisk or stir it until you fully dissolve the coffee granules and sugar.

Pro Tip: You can use a handheld frother or whisk; they’re good to create a light foam. This step will give you the Nescafe iced coffee recipe with milk, with cafe vibes.

Step 2: Prepare Your Glass

You will need to take a glass and fill it halfway with ice cubes. 

However, if you want a barista-style clinking effect, you can use crushed ice instead of cubes.

Step 3: Add Milk

Now you have to pour 1 cup of chilled milk over the ice. 

You can use any milk, whole milk, plant-based milk, or even half-and-half.

Step 4: Pour the Coffee Mix

Now, in that crushed ice and coffee mixture, you will have to pour your dissolved coffee mixture. 

This will create that layered effect you often see in Nescafe iced coffee recipe TikTok videos.

Step 5: Stir and Customize

Finally, you will want to stir it with a spoon and turn your drink into light brown iced coffee. 

At this point, you can also add syrups, whipped cream, or cocoa powder.

Done! Your Nescafe Iced Coffee Recipe is ready; you can drink it now.

 

Variations of Nescafe Iced Coffee Recipe

Nescafe Iced Coffee is highly customizable, and if you enjoy drinking coffee every morning. So you can try a different variation every day.

1. Nescafe Iced Latte

Don’t use only water and milk. You can make your coffee more strong, and for that you’ll need to add 1 more teaspoon of Nescafe. 

Then, pour it over more milk and serve in a tall glass. You can also add a dash of vanilla syrup for a café-style Nescafe iced latte.

2. Mocha Iced Coffee

Just add 1 tablespoon of cocoa powder. If chocolate syrup is available in your home, you can use that too.

Add that to your coffee mixture.

After that, you wanna stir it, and then you can pour it over ice and milk. You can pair it with my Bakery-Style Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Muffins.

3. Caramel Iced Coffee

Drizzle caramel syrup inside your glass before adding ice.

After that, you can pour that coffee mixture over milk. And top it with whipped cream, or more caramel if you enjoy that.

4. Nescafe Gold Iced Coffee Recipe

You will need premium coffee like Nescafe Gold. It will give a smooth iced coffee flavor. 

Moreover, it will also dissolve faster and will taste better as compared to classic Nescafe.

5. Vegan Nescafe Iced Coffee

If you’re a vegan or vegetarian, you can avoid whole milk and use oat milk or almond milk.

Besides this, you should use maple syrup instead of white sugar.

This will make a creamy and dairy-free iced coffee version.

6. Protein Iced Coffee

Mix a scoop of chocolate or vanilla protein powder into the milk before pouring it over the coffee. 

This will give you a Nescafe iced coffee recipe that doubles as a pre-workout drink.

7. Nescafe Cold Coffee Recipe (Blended)

This will be the classic Indian Nescafe cold coffee recipe with milk. It’s also known as café frappe style.

 

Serving Suggestions for Nescafe Iced Coffee

You can drink this Nescafe iced coffee recipe with milk without any extra things, but if you want a café experience, you should pair it with these snacks and treats:

• Cookies & Biscuits: You can have a plate of Chocolate Covered Oreos or digestive biscuits. You can dip them and eat.
• Chocolate Desserts: This iced coffee pairs beautifully with Chocolate Covered Dates with Almond Butter. The chewy dates and creamy coffee balance each other.
• Pastries: Croissants, cinnamon rolls, or mini muffins. Warm, buttery pastries are the perfect contrast to an iced drink.
• Light Snacks: A handful of roasted nuts or granola bars like Dark Chocolate Sweet Potato Chipotle Fudge on the side.
• Breakfast Pairings: You can serve your drink with banana bread or Easy Banana Bars without Frosting.

 

Pro Tips to Make the Best Nescafe Iced Coffee

• Dissolve coffee properly: You can’t skip the hot water step — otherwise your coffee won’t dissolve properly and you’ll see granules floating in your glass.
• Chill your milk: When you use cold milk, it will give the best creamy texture. Warm milk will melt the ice too quickly.
• Use good ice: Both are good, but cubes will melt more slowly, while crushed ice will give your drink more café-style texture, so you can use whichever you like the most.
• Adjust sweetness: I don’t like too much sweetness, like dessert, but you may. So, it’s up to you.
• TikTok Froth Hack: You can add sugar to your coffee with sugar a little water and make it frothy. After that, you will pour into milk. This will give you the famous Nescafe Iced Coffee TikTok style foam on top.

 

Storage Instructions

I always like the fresh, but sometimes it happens to me when I can’t finish everything, so if it happens to you.

You can store leftover Nescafe iced coffee drink in the fridge; it will be okay for up to 24 hours. 

However, you’ll have to shake it well before serving, as the coffee will settle at the bottom.

Besides this, you have to avoid storing ice inside the jar, as it will dilute the coffee. 

Instead, you should add fresh ice cubes when ready to drink.

You can make it with just a few ingredients like Nescafe instant coffee, milk, sugar, and ice.

So, next time when you want a Nescafe iced latte or see the Nescafe Iced Coffee TikTok trend, you can make that.
