Iced coffee is a cold drink prepared on the basis of coffee with the addition of ice cream sundae. The dish in which it is customary to serve coffee is a glass cup or wine glass. The word Glase comes from the French glac?, Which means "icy" or "frozen". Most people prefer to drink the drink in hot summer instead of chilled green tea or hibiscus when they need a boost of energy from coffee, but do not feel like drinking a hot drink. However, there are varieties of glace that use the contrast of hot coffee and ice-cold ice cream, which makes the drink especially popular in the autumn-winter period.
The composition of iced coffee, of course, may differ. There are many recipes for delicacies. For example, glaze is prepared from natural freshly brewed or instant coffee. If possible, of course, it is better to use natural freshly brewed coffee, brewed in a coffee maker, a Turk, or simply brewed in a cup. Instant coffee will work too, but most of the taste and aroma will be lost. Therefore, to get a real rich and classic taste, give preference to coffee beans.
Ice cream is a huge choice. A classic ice cream without flavoring is best. But for making a drink at home, no one forbids experimenting. You can add a rich and interesting taste to coffee by using ice cream crème brulee, vanilla, chocolate or caramel. Grated chocolate, candy crumbs, coconut flakes, ground cinnamon, nuts, cocoa powder can be used as additional products …
