These days when the sun warms the skin
There's nothing quite like the cool breeze of a cup of coffee on a summer day, the breeze gently brushing your hair. Iced coffee is no longer just a beverage; it's a refreshing ritual, a graceful break from the day's busy schedule.
At Imesta Coffee, we don't just offer coffee; we offer coffee experiences. This article makes summer even more enjoyable with three special recipes you can easily make at home using Imesta's carefully roasted beans: Cold Brew, Frappé, and Iced Latte .
1. Cold Brew: Coolness Brewed Over Time
This slow-brewed, smooth-tasting, and low-acidity recipe works wonderfully with Nocturne from Imesta Coffee's filter series. It adds elegant depth to cold brew with notes of caramel, hazelnut, and chocolate.
Materials:
-
100g ground Nocturne (coarse grind)
-
1 liter of cold drinking water
-
Brewing pot or French press
-
Filter (coffee filter or fine strainer)
How to make:
-
Mix the coffee with water, stir gently.
-
Close the lid and leave it in the refrigerator for 16–18 hours.
-
Strain and serve with ice. You can add a few drops of milk or vanilla extract if desired.
TIP: You can consume cold brew for several days to maintain its freshness.
2. Frappé: A Foamy Escape
The iconic Greek frappé might be one of the most enjoyable summer treats. We recommend refining this recipe a bit more with Imesta Coffee Bravura . Light hints of lime, hazelnut, and spice add a sweet touch.
Materials:
-
1 teaspoon Bravura (instant espresso or instant coffee version)

1 tea glass of cold water
-
1 teaspoon of sugar (optional)

Milk (cold)

Ice
How to make:

Once foam forms, put ice in a large glass and pour the mixture over it.
-
Add milk and serve immediately.
TIP: You can enhance it by decorating it with an ice cream scoop or cinnamon.
3. Iced Latte: Elegant and Satisfying
A must-have for classic drinkers, the iced latte is ideal for those seeking a midday refreshment. With Imesta Coffee's Terra Espresso Blend , this recipe takes on a much more balanced and velvety character.
Materials:
-
Double shot espresso (prepared with Terra)
-
200 ml cold milk (vegetable milk can also be used)
-
Lots of ice
How to make:
-
Fill the glass with ice.

Add the espresso on top.

Finally, slowly pour in the milk. The layered look creates a lovely presentation.
TIP: You can create different flavor layers with vanilla extract or cinnamon.
