Gather the Necessary Supplies

To make flavored ice cubes, you’ll need a few basic supplies:

• Ice cube trays: For this recipe, you’ll need two or more ice cube trays to make enough flavored ice cubes for your iced coffee. Regular-sized silicone molds or trays work best since they’re easy to fill and remove from the freezer.
• Blender: A blender will be necessary for preparing and mixing the flavored ice cubes before freezing them.
• Bowls: You’ll also need one or two medium-sized bowls for transferring and storing the ice cubes. Make sure that the bowl is large enough for all of the ice cubes in one of your trays, as well as an extra bowl if needed.

Choose Your Flavoring

Now it’s time to pick the flavorings that you’ll use in your flavored ice cubes. You can choose any type of flavoring but fruits tend to be the most popular options.

• Fruit: Try adding freshly chopped fruits like strawberries, blueberries, raspberries, blackberries, or mangoes to your flavored ice cubes for a naturally sweet flavor. You can also buy store-bought fruit syrups or jams and add those as well if desired.
• Extracts: Flavoring extracts like vanilla, almond, coconut, and peppermint are great additions to your iced coffee, so they work well in flavored ice cubes. Simply add a few drops into your mix before pouring into the trays and freezing.
• Syrups: Store-bought syrups are excellent additions if you want an even sweeter twist on your flavored ice cubes. Syrups like caramel and hazelnut are ideal choices, pairing perfectly with iced coffee drinks!

Prepare Your Iced Coffee

For this recipe, you’ll need to have a batch of cold brew ready so that it’s ready to pour over your flavored ice cubes once they’re frozen and ready to enjoy!

Ingredients

• 2 cups water
• 1 cup ground coffee or coffee beans
• 2 tablespoons of sweetener

Instructions

Begin by heating 2 cups of water in a pot on the stove or an electric kettle until hot but not boiling. Then transfer it into a large pitcher or heatproof bowl and let cool slightly before adding 1 cup of ground coffee. Stir with a spoon until fully dissolved and no clumps remain visible. Add 2 tablespoons of your favorite sweetener such as honey, maple syrup, agave syrup, or simple syrup into the mixture and stir until fully combined. Let cool to room temperature or chill in the fridge. Strain any remaining coffee grounds out before serving.

Prepare the Flavored Ice Cubes

Now it’s time to make your flavored ice cubes! To begin this process, be sure that all of your ingredients are prepared beforehand — pre-chopped fruits should be ready as well as any syrups or extracts you plan on adding!

Ingredients

• 4 cups of cold water or coffee
• Fruit juice, syrups, or extracts to taste
• Pre-chopped fruit

Instructions

Start by adding 4 cups of cold water or coffee to your blender based on your preferred coffee strength; water-based ice cubes are ideal for making all sorts of beverages but will water down your iced coffee as they melt, while coffee-based ones will maintain their strength but could overpower other flavors. Slowly add each flavorful ingredient that you have chosen one at a time to the pitcher, blending until all ingredients are mixed together evenly inside of your blender pitcher.

Once all ingredients are added together inside of your blender, turn it up one level higher and blend for one minute until everything is combined together evenly inside of the pitcher. Once finished blending, remove your blender pitcher from its base and carefully pour its contents slowly into each ice cube slot — filling each one halfway with the flavored liquid will help ensure they freeze properly. You can also add chunks of chopped fruit for an eye-catching appearance and an extra burst of flavor.

Freeze and Enjoy!

Allow your flavored ice cubes to freeze for at least four hours or, ideally, overnight before popping them out. Once finished freezing, transfer them out of their trays into separate bowls for storage and serving. When ready to drink, add four or five of these flavored ice cubes to each glass of freshly brewed cold brew or another favorite beverage such as tea or lemonade — then enjoy!
