How to make Starbucks iced coffee 

As a matter of fact, there are various ways to make a Starbucks iced coffee. We’ve given them all a try and we have to be sincere, there isn’t much difference between them. But inspire of that, we are going to basically focus on the French Press method today. Also, please note that the French press method is the quickest.

 

Furthermore, we brew our coffee, press the plunger, and then allow it to cool for about  30 to 40 minutes. In addition, it is so much quicker if you place it in the refrigerator as soon as you have brewed it.

After it is chilled, we carefully pour a couple of cups of fresh sweet-smelling coffee over some ice and add a little sweetness in the form of sugar syrup. Nevertheless, you can use regular white sugar if you do not have sugar syrup and a layer of cream over the top.

 

To clarify, as the cream sinks through the coffee, it brings about an excellent marbling effect and surely adds to the drink’s visible appeal.

With this in mind, other approaches or methods are used, for example using cold brew coffee. However, we want to make our recipe straightforward.
