Make this Iced Almond Milk Latte with Coffee Ice Cubes on a hot day and for an afternoon pick-me-up!
I recently shared this Iced Almond Milk Latte with Coffee Ice Cubes as an exclusive recipe to my email list. However, after receiving numerous requests for the ‘recipe’, I thought I would just share it on here for everyone! (I put recipe in quotes because it’s seriously that easy).
I know, it looks all fancy and such, but it’s one-two-three steps to an ice cold latte afternoon pick-me-up! Let’s just dive right in to this tutorial, shall we?
Note: you will need an ice cube tray for this recipe!
Step 1:
Pour brewed coffee into each tray cube. Do not fill all the way – leave about 1/4-1/2 inch room at the top.
Try not to make a mess like I did, ha.
Step 2:
Pour simple syrup evenly into each cube. Place in the freezer and freeze for 3-4 hours, or overnight.
*To make syrup: combine 1 cup sugar + 1 cup water and either heat in the microwave or in a sauce pan. Heat until sugar dissolves.

Step 3:
Place in a cup and pour milk over ice cubes. Enjoy!

These ice cubes are so big! Where do you get a tray that makes cubes that large? because that is the size of the coffee I want to drink, lol. Do you let the ice cubes melt in the almond milk to release the coffee? I guess I’m a bit confused!
Danielle @ afloat on a full sea
The Blissful Balance says
I linked to one in the tutorial but I bought mine at Homegoods! And yes, the cubes melt within a few minutes!
Allie @ Miss Allie's Kitchen says
Ahhhhh the syrup. I see whatcha did there. I need to do this with the coffee we don’t drink in the AM!
The Blissful Balance says
YES that’s the perfect way to use it! I still have some cubes in my freezer and I just make one of these in the late morning!
Erin @ The Almond Eater says

I love coffee, so this is totally up my ally. Question: do the cubes melt fast enough? I guess this would help me slow down when drinking my morning brew
Cayanne Marcus @healthyezsweet says
That milky drizzle over the coffee cubes is drool worthy! I’m a 2% milk gal so I think I’ll do this with that milk. Coffee cubes is genius!
Lauren Kennicot says
Coffee ice cubes, crazy idea! haha
Damn, if only I found this recipe sooner, I wrote an iced coffee roundup during Summer. I might do one again next year. If you’re interested, you can read it here: http://www.coffeeb.net/iced-coffee-recipes/

Awesome Christina, I’ve been making regular coffee ice cubes with my leftover coffee for years! Never though of adding them with almond milk though. I normally just add them to my cold brew coffee, when they melt the ice cubes won’t water down the brew.
Angela Maciel says
AWESOME Christana…this is delicious and easy to make.. especially those ice cubes… very creative
My coffee blog says
So easy. Why I never have such a good idea as ice coffee cubes Do I need to put the foil over because of other scents from the freezer?
Sasha @ Just Coffee Maker says
I love how simple this recipe is! Like you I’ve been buying cold-brewed coffee where I see it but I’ve only made it once. But I love the idea of freezing it into ice cubes! ?
