hftmrock Posted May 9, 2014 #2 Share Posted May 9, 2014 I apologize if I am missing something here Take hot coffee, prepare it the way you like it (milk, sugar, etc), then get a tumbler or some larger cup, put ice in and pour the coffee in...

Fitzget Posted May 9, 2014 #3 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Pour it over ice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
092306 Posted May 9, 2014 #4 Share Posted May 9, 2014 Never made it myself on board because the coffee isn't the greatest and it would be a hassle to find a large enough cup with a lid to mix it. I usually just buy it from the specialty coffee shop. Way easier and better that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crusin Karen Posted May 9, 2014 #5 Share Posted May 9, 2014 I make this all the time. Grab a large plastic cup from a bar on Lido and a straw. Fill glass with ice, then pour coffee over and put in your cream and sugar or however you like your coffee. Another alternative: Get the glass and the straw, put in your coffee, put in some vanilla soft serve ice cream and let it melt almost completely, then add some ice and a pack of sugar if you like your coffee sweet. You can top THAT off with a dollop of chocolate soft serve if you wish. You can also put a shot of Kahlua or Irish Cream in it! :p;):) I make this all the time. :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuthlessBoss Posted May 10, 2014 #6 Share Posted May 10, 2014 I bring my large plastic glass, put in about 1/3to 1/2 of hot coffe, add a few healthy scoops of powdered cappaccino mix to dissolve. Add some creamer, sweetner if desired, fill the rest of the glass with ice. It made an excellent cool drink in the hot Caribbean. Had several comments (good) as people wanted to know where I got it:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruisetexas Posted May 10, 2014 #8 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Obviously the posters aren't iced coffee people like we are! Haha.....pouring brewed coffee over ice just makes really really weak watered down coffee. :p I bring Starbucks VIA instant packets and mix with a little bit of hot water to dissolve. Then add cold water to taste and whatever cream/sugar you'd like. The VIA is pretty intense flavor, but you could use two packets with a little hot water to make it stronger, then add water. It works really nicely and is much less expensive than the coffee bar. Enjoy your trip! Susan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauleydm Posted May 10, 2014 #9 Share Posted May 10, 2014 (edited) I bring my own insulated coffee mug. Chocolate soft serve, 4 packets of sugar and coffee:) Edited May 10, 2014 by pauleydm Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moo's Mom Posted May 10, 2014 #10 Share Posted May 10, 2014 Starbucks also has a VIA iced coffee. Works in a pinch and as the previous poster said much, much cheaper than the coffee shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorrieCJ Posted May 13, 2014 #11 Share Posted May 13, 2014 The secret to making iced coffee that isn't just lukewarm watery coffee full of melted ice: After you fill the glass with ice, take a metal knife and slide it into the cup, down to the bottom. As you pour the coffee into the glass, pour it over the knife - then remove the knife quickly. The metal will absorb much of the coffee's heat, allowing your ice to cool the coffee, instead of melting right away from the coffee's heat. You can then add your cream & sugar if you like. And a straw, always a straw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keene state mom Posted May 13, 2014 #12 Share Posted May 13, 2014 I fill a thermos with coffee leave it in fridge until its cold or next day and then pour it on ice with cream and sugar that way its not getting diluted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
