Before you start crafting your iced coffee, gather these ingredients:
Start by brewing a cup of coffee. We used Victor Allen’s single-serve coffee pods, but you can use any kind you’d like. Transfer the brewed coffee to a cup, and place in the refrigerator to cool.
Fill a glass with ice cubes. We used these cute honey bee mason jars. The ice not only helps to chill the drink but also dilutes it slightly, making it the perfect strength.
Once it’s no longer hot, pour the coffee over the ice.
Next, add the honey to your iced coffee. Add as much or as little as you’d like.
To incorporate the honey smoothly into your iced coffee, you can dissolve it in a small amount of warm water first. Mix two to three tablespoons of honey with a few tablespoons of warm water until fully dissolved.
Stir well to ensure the sweetness is evenly distributed throughout the coffee.
If you prefer a creamier texture, feel free to add a splash of your choice of milk or cream. We added a little creamer.
Place a straw in your drink, and enjoy!
To enhance your honey bee iced coffee, consider adding different mix-ins of your choice. We recommend vanilla extract, cinnamon, and lemon zest. Feel free to experiment with different flavors and ingredients to find your perfect blend. The possibilities are endless!
Making honey iced coffee at home is a rewarding process, especially if you’re using honey from your very own beehives! Not only do you get to enjoy a delicious, refreshing drink. But you also get the satisfaction of creating it yourself. Follow these steps, and you’ll have a perfect honey iced coffee every time.
