This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Seattle’s Best Coffee®. All opinions are 100% mine.
My name is Kelly and I’m addicted to coffee — whether it’s iced, hot or frozen, I’ll take it! This Homemade Iced Coffee is as good as the coffee shop, if not better (ahem). As the warmer temps roll in, this will be my go-to coffee drink.
The BEST Homemade Iced Coffee
How many of us are on the lookout for a good deal? I know I am. For example, maybe a boxed wine tastes just as good as a private label. Sometimes you can find products that are a good price with high quality — like Seattle’s Best Coffee® .
Why settle for average coffee when you can get Seattle’s Best® Coffee for THE SAME PRICE (or maybe a teeny tiny more)? It’s seriously like a FREE upgrade.
Enjoying better coffee has never been so rewarding. Seattle’s Best Coffee® is offering a Price Match Guarantee as a way for you to try the coffee! Simply find the coffee aisle, choose your roast of choice, purchase and enjoy the quality promised (additional details available on their website regarding the price match).
I’ve always been a fan of Seattle’s Best® — it’s reasonably priced, has a smooth taste and comes in a variety of blends. Discover Seattle’s Best® Coffee at Walmart, the coffee is at an everyday low price, making it a great everyday coffee!
When out ordering iced coffee, I often become frustrated with all of the granulated sugar settling at the bottom of the cup. So, I tried using simple sugar in mine. What a fantastic idea that was. This iced coffee is made to fit the bill of light cream, light sugar.

Recipe Notes
NOTE: The longer the coffee sits in the fridge, the stronger it will become. Adding more or less sugar and cream is at your discretion.
One of my favorite snacks with coffee (hot or cold) is Almond Biscotti. Mmmm… I love dipping them in hot coffee and I’ll take them nice and crunchy with the iced coffee.
Hot or cold, Seattle’s Best® won’t disappoint. Drinking a cup of coffee in a cute mug doesn’t hurt either, right? Another one of my kookie quirks — cute coffee mugs (wink).
How do you like your coffee? Hot? Cold? Iced? Cream and Sugar? Let me know in the comments!

mmm… Coffee I used to be a casual drinker until I moved to the Seattle area 10 + years ago. Now I am hopelessly in love with it. Like you- iced, hot, frozen… *sigh* Seattle’s Best is one of my “go to” brands. I like the “Spirited Start”. ( your mug would have really matched that package) lol I am the only coffee addict in my house and I just do a simple pour over in a ceramic cone. Because if I had a coffee pot maker I would drink the whole darn pot. lol This is so funny because I just bought a milk frother to complete my paraphernalia and I was sniffing around on Pinterest for coffee related stuff and found this post. Mmmm..coffee. I suppose next is a bean grinder. Nah… that sounds like too much work. lol Thanks for a fun post. 😀
Hi, Kelly. I love your mug! Adorable. Wish I could find one like that with a ShihtZu on it. My little Yum Yum (smooch, smooch – love her to death). I agree totally that it always tastes better in a cute mug! I love Iced Coffee too. But I am a Dunkin Donuts coffee fan so I plan to use your method with my flavord Duncan Donuts coffee. I also use organic cane sugar so this recipe works well for me. Soon as it gets warm here again, I will mix up a batch! Thanks for the recipe and the tips. Cheers!
Love the coffee mug! Where did you find it??
Hi Gersch! You can find the mug here: https://share.society6.com/x/jbhtMG
Hi Kelly,
I enjoy Starbucks Frappuccino Mocha drink & was wondering if you thought I could adapt your homemade iced coffee to the mocha taste. I don’t care for coffee but love iced mochas & coffee flavored ice cream.
Whatever ideas you can share would be appreciated.
Awesome cold coffee, Hazelnut is my favorite. Try this, take your coffee beans, place in the grinder, add two broken up sticks of cinnamon, 4 to 5 star anise…grind to a fine state. Make your coffee…called Tinto Capesino, “farmers coffee” in Colombia. Enjoy!

Thanks so much for the tip, Bob! I’ll be sure to give that a try. Have a great week. Cheers!

Oh yum! I love iced coffee! I have never made my own though. I will have to try this with the help of my coffee maker. And it’s super pretty to look at!
