16 Ways to Upgrade Your Iced Coffee
Coffee, let us count the ways we love you. You’re there for us during the late nights and early mornings, and you save our lives when the two collide. Here at Brit + Co HQ, we’re familiar with hectic mornings when we need our coffee STAT. And thanks to those mornings, we know how to treasure the moments when we can sip and savor a specialty coffee creation. We’re super excited now, ’cause iced-coffee season is upon us! And you know we’re not about to let things get boring, so we’ve rounded up some delicious caffeine-loaded sips. Just be prepared to have your roommates and coworkers start asking for a cup once they spot your morning jolt on Instagram.
1. Lavender-Honey Iced Latte: The aroma of lavender, coffee and honey is enough to start our day off on the right foot, but the first sip doesn’t hurt either. (via Offbeat + Inspired)
2. The Wild Child: Whipped cream and sprinkles make everything better. (via Brit + Co)

4. Caramel Iced Coffee: The sweetness from the caramel, and fact that it won’t get watered down due to coffee ice cubes, make this delectable drink perfect for warm days. (via Waiting on Martha)
5. Cinnamon Iced Coffee: Speaking of coffee cubes, this recipe combines cinnamon, brown sugar, coffee and milk in a frozen coffee cube. All you have to do is add cold milk and enjoy. Genius! (via Bea’s Cookbook)
