I have got the process for an excellent iced coffee nailed. Double shot using these Aldi Lazzio Medium beans, stir through a teaspoon of sugar into the espresso, pour over ice in a cold glass and then pour milk over ice and stir. Simple and delicious.

Definitely a good thing to be making in this weather.

I do a Vietnamese style, with condensed milk. Looks really good in the double-walled glass mugs, with a layer of milk at the bottom and coffee on top. Makes a quite sweet drink though.

Hmmm.. I tried one once but it wasn't for me, but that was very early in my coffee drinking career so I should probably give it another whirl because they SOUND amazing. It'd need to be a "sometimes drink" though, being so sweet. I also have a childhood-fondness of condensed milk from memories of mum making rice pudding, so I need to make sure I don't overdo it with that stuff.
