Cold brew, chilled brew, nitro cold brew, iced Americano, Mazagran

Classic iced coffee drinks focus on clean, chilled expressions of coffee that highlight flavor and simplicity. These include cold brew, made by steeping grounds in cold water for hours, and iced Americanos—espresso shots diluted with cold water and ice. Nitro cold brew adds nitrogen gas to the brew, giving it a frothy, Guinness-like texture. Mazagran, often described as the original iced coffee, combines strong coffee with lemon juice and ice and originated in Algeria and Portugal. Chilled brewed coffee is another staple, where hot coffee is cooled down before serving to preserve its structure while avoiding the bitterness caused by melting ice. These classic preparations are perfect for purists who want the full flavor of coffee without dairy, syrups, or excessive sugar. They're also low-calorie, easy to customize, and refreshing any time of day.
