I drink the iced coffee or according to the basement dwellers of arf, the not manly kind

Starbucks iced coffee from the store is the best I found without brewing a whole pot or icing it down from my keurig.
What be you drinkin

I like full bodied ice coffee; so I drip brew the following: 2 parts regular coffee and 1 part Espresso ground coffee.

Then chill it in fridge. Ice coffee takes a lot of ice and milk/cream to serve, so brewing in 1 part espresso ground coffee, in with regular coffee, makes up for it. Sometimes i put a shot of the Italian flavored syrup and it rivals any Starbucks cold brew.

Serve over a lot of ice, add crème and there you are.

Straight up coffee from a French Press. Wife adds some sort of froofy Almond-creamer to gay it up. Pretty good though.

French press mostly , but I will drink a cold brew coffee from Dunkin once in While.

I hate the last swig of my coffee when it gets cold. Yuck. I don't see the appeal of iced coffee, but hey, to each his own...

I drink it with half and half only. Or with cream only from the dunkin donuts.

I love the flavor of hot coffee but chilled.

I'd love to get an iced coffee maker. Brew it cold.

Hot coffee I'll only drink in the winter if I'm freezing my balls off. But then I'll still get an iced coffee on my way into work for when I drive.
I can't eat anything and have a hot drink either.
What are some good iced coffee brewers?

OP, buy yourself a toddy cold brew system. It'll save you a boat load of money. And the coffee you make will taste way better.

I grind my own Ethiopian and use a v60 for hot or cold.

I guess I'm the oddball because I don't really care for iced coffee and prefer mine straight espresso or regular coffee. But- I am hooked on Chai Tea Latte iced with a shot of espresso in it

Simple man here.

Not an ice coffee fan, but to each there own.

I like my coffee, hot, black with just a little bit of sugar.

I have never had Starbucks coffee.

I'm currently sitting here with a Bodum load of Kickin Horse 'Kick Ass' with some stevia and cinnamon.

I like ice-coffee, but I don't like diluted coffee. If you're gonna do ice-coffee, cold brewing is half the battle.

Vietnamese iced coffee (cafe sua da).

Start off with one of these contraptions, condensed milk and cafe du monde coffee, let it drip, mix, and pour over a large cup of ice.

Hot or cold, brand doesn't matter.

I always add enough Carmel macchiato or sweet cream creamer to turn the cup of coffee almost white like milk. Delicious.

My local shop has the Nitro cold brewed coffee now. That's some good shit !!!

Homemade cold-brewed coffee, using this contraption:

I then mix it with unsweetened almond milk, a bit of stevia, a dash of vanilla extract, and some ice cubes. Tastes like a frappe, but with almost no sugar, and something like 50 calories.

Every morning, on the way to work I get McDonalds iced coffee, with cream and no sugar.
Can't beat the medium, for a dollar.

Shit. From a cheap two cup maker. On the road I go all out tho and keep Starbucks laced with cash.

Lately its been OD'ing on Fraps tho I do mainline their darker blends.

I like hot coffee black, but not iced coffee.

Need a little sugar and cream for iced coffee.

The small cans of double shot espresso from Starbucks are perfect.

I wish we could get Georgia coffee like in Japan.

This morning I had The Roasterie Voodoo blend from a French press. Drank it black no sugar. It's my normal everyday coffee. If I want to be tier one I roast my own beans and use the bialetta for some espresso.

That's not coffee....coffee once ground has a shelf life of a few hours, for optimal flavor. What you're drinking is insipid pond water that I wouldn't serve to my worst enemy.

Folgers or Maxwell House typically at home. Whatever we find on sale ;) LP gets Lattes a lot from the Quickstar about 1 mile from our house and I get their Hazelnut or Columbian blend from there. At work we get this cheapo crap-tasting hospital bought in bulk coffee. Horrible, but free and plentiful lol.

I sprinkle some cinnamon on top of my coffee grounds before they hit the percolator. I also use paper (the morally upright brown ones, not the evil whitey ones) filters to catch the cafestol.

My coffee has three ingredients. Coffee, water, and awesomeness. Anything else is for children.
