This Coconut Maple Iced Coffee is a creamy, naturally sweetened drink made with coconut milk, maple syrup, and a hint of cinnamon and cardamom. It’s delicious, dairy-free, and ready in minutes.
Brew the Coffee: Prepare 8-ounces of coffee and let it cool slightly if brewed hot. You can also use cold brew or leftover coffee from the fridge.
Prep the Coconut Mixture: In a small bowl or glass, combine ⅓ cup canned coconut milk (make sure it’s fully stirred to reincorporate if separated) with 1 tablespoon pure maple syrup, a dash of cinnamon, and a dash of cardamom.
Mix Until Smooth: Use a hand mixer or milk frother to blend the coconut mixture until smooth and lightly frothy. If you don’t have one, a fork or spoon works just fine — stir well to combine.
Assemble the Drink: Pour the coffee into a 12–16 ounce glass. Add ice, then slowly pour the coconut-maple mixture over top.
Garnish and Serve: Top with flaked coconut or a sprinkle of cinnamon, if desired. Enjoy immediately.
