by Sophie Caruana in Recipes

A Sweet Moment, Poured Over Ice

There’s something undeniably comforting about caramel — rich, golden, and just the right amount of indulgent. Now imagine that silky sweetness woven through bold, chilled coffee, poured over ice and finished with a creamy flourish.

This caramel iced coffee recipe is your shortcut to café-quality drinks at home — no queues, no compromise. Whether you're elevating your morning ritual or hosting a laid-back brunch with friends, this is the kind of drink that turns everyday moments into something special.

What You’ll Need

  • 1 cup freshly brewed coffee (cooled) or cold brew
  • 1–2 pumps Cashmere Syrups Caramel Syrup
  • ½ cup milk of choice (full cream, oat, almond)
  • Ice
  • Optional: whipped cream + caramel drizzle

Pro Tip: For a lighter option, swap in Cashmere Lite Caramel Syrup — all the flavour, less sugar.

How to Make Caramel Iced Coffee

  1. Fill your glass with ice. Use a tall glass for that café-style feel.
  2. Add caramel syrup. Pour 1–2 pumps of Cashmere Caramel Syrup directly over the ice.
  3. Pour in your coffee. Slowly add your cooled coffee or cold brew.
  4. Top with milk. Add your milk of choice and watch the layers swirl together.
  5. Finish your way. Add whipped cream and a drizzle of caramel for an extra indulgent touch.
