Iced Coffee Lemonade recipe

What is the first thought that pops into a coffee enthusiast’s mind during a heatwave or a scorching summer day? Iced coffee, naturally! This delightful and revitalizing drink is ideal for warm weather. The temperatures have soared here in the UK, and I’ve been preparing iced coffee daily to stay cool. By the way, I also enjoy water, cucumber water, or pineapple water.

If you’re curious about whether coffee and lemon complement each other, the response is affirmative! It’s genuinely delicious, and I hope to win you over as well. The zesty essence of lemon juice neutralizes any bitterness from the coffee, making it incredibly refreshing.

What’s even more fabulous about this iced coffee recipe is how simple it is to create at home, and it is much more affordable than what you would get at Starbucks or your local café. Therefore, the next time you crave iced coffee, bypass Starbucks and concoct this delightful drink at home.

What is coffee lemonade

Coffee Lemonade is a revitalizing drink that merges the finest of both realms, coffee and lemonade. It resembles Mazagran, which is a traditional beverage from Algeria that combines potent hot espresso, lemon juice, and simple sugar syrup served over ice. This iced coffee concoction is remarkably refreshing, zesty, and straightforward to prepare. Think of it as the fraternal sibling of Arnold Palmer’s drink (a blend of tea and coffee).

You only require three primary ingredients, ice, and five minutes to create this recipe. In fact, if you already have cold brew coffee in your refrigerator, it might be even quicker than that.

PS: This coffee and lemonade beverage originates from Algeria and is also popular in Portugal. You may add alcohol to this drink if you wish.

What you will need

How to prepare iced coffee lemonade

Collect everything necessary to craft your drinks.

Brew your coffee as usual and allow it to cool slightly, or grab a glass of cold brew coffee. I am using espresso.

Fill a glass with ice, pour the lemonade over it, followed by the coffee and lemon juice. If preferred, add sugar syrup or honey and mix well. Adorn with a slice of lemon and serve. Relish!

How to store

This iced beverage is best enjoyed immediately, so I wouldn’t suggest storing it. However, if you must, keep it in a glass jar with a lid in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
