Mint Vanilla Iced Coffee Recipe
Report
Mint Vanilla Iced Coffee is creamy, minty and very refreshing! A homemade simple syrup made with fresh mint is combined with vanilla cold brew coffee and milk then it's served over ice. All you need are 5 ingredients and 30 minutes to put it together! This surprising flavor combo is the perfect way to cool off on a hot summer day! Serve with it my Italian Pasta Salad or this Grilled Peach and Haloumi Salad.

Instructions
To make the Minty Simple Syrup:
- 1. In a medium pot, set over medium heat, add the sugar and water. Stir until the sugar has dissolved, about 1 minute. Stir in the mint leaves and heat until the water is almost to a simmer. Turn the heat off and cover, allowing to steep for about 30 minutes. Strain the simple syrup, discarding the mint leaves. Add the simple syrup to a jar or squeeze bottle.
To Assemble:
- 2. Fill two glasses with ice. Add about 2 tablespoons of simple syrup to each glass. This measurement can be eyeballed and more can be added later, if you like. Pour in the cold brew and then top with the cream or almond milk. Give it a good stir and taste. Adjust the simple syrup as desired. Garnish with mint leaves and serve immediately.

Notes
- Use the mint syrup for other recipes. This mint simple syrup recipe makes enough for you to enjoy iced coffee all week or it can be used for other recipes. Try adding it to hot coffee drinks, cocktails, mocktails, iced tea or lemonade.
- Use coffee ice cubes! If you are planning in advance, freeze brewed coffee into ice cubes so it won't water down your coffee.
