You might have to remove the drip tray if your big cup won’t fit easily.
You might see Keurig pods that say “Brew Over Ice. " While these are designed specifically for iced drinks, it’s completely fine to use any of your Keurig pods for iced coffee.
The ice will begin to melt as the hot coffee falls on it. If you want to minimize dilution, brew the coffee into an empty cup and let it chill in the fridge for 30 minutes before you pour it into an ice-filled glass. You don’t need a Keurig machine with the iced button feature in order to make iced coffee! If you’re worried the coffee will be too weak, use the “strong” or “shot” option when you brew the coffee with your Keurig. This gives you almost identical results.
Flavored creamers are a great way to finish your iced coffee. Try cinnamon bun, cinnamon, or white mocha for instance.
To make your own simple syrup, mix equal parts sugar and water in a saucepan and bring it to a boil. Cook the mixture until the sugar dissolves and becomes syrupy. Then, store it in the fridge until you’re ready to use it. If you’re crunched for time and don’t have time to make simple syrup, whisk in powdered sugar—it dissolves easier than granulated sugar.
Add chocolate syrup to make an iced mocha. Stir in caramel syrup for an iced caramel macchiato. Add vanilla or hazelnut syrup for a lightly sweetened iced coffee.
If you make a whole tray of coffee iced cubes, don’t forget to put them in a separate storage container and label them, so you remember what they are.
