Use leftover coffee to make iced coffee cubes
Next time you make coffee, and you have some left over that you simply can’t finish, instead of pouring it down the sink, pour it into an ice cube tray. Allow it to cool, then pop the tray into your freezer. Then whenever you fancy an iced coffee at home, all you have to do is grab a couple of the coffee cubes from the freezer, place them in a glass and pour over a little boiling water to melt them. Then top up with your ice-cold milk of choice, tons of ice cubes and any flavourings you fancy – we’re big fans of vanilla syrup, but you do you.

Add a pinch of salt
As with hot coffee, adding a pinch of salt to your iced coffee will make it taste way better. Why? Because, salt has a way of neutralising bitterness in general, so adding it to coffee is a great way to remove some of the bitterness of coffee; leaving you with a smoother drink.The best way of doing this is by adding a pinch to your coffee grounds before you make your coffee or iced coffee.
