Iced Instant Coffee Latte is a delicious and refreshing homemade sweet and creamy blended coffee drink.
With only 3 ingredients—including instant coffee and frozen milk—and a blender, you can prepare the drink in minutes.
Use regular instant for a little caffeine kick or use decaf to avoid the caffeine but keep the flavor.
The perfect easy and quick, cool solution to a hot summer’s day or night!
And by using frozen milk instead of ice, you get a rich, creamy texture that doesn’t get watered down!
This iced latte is a terrific substitute for a hot latte, especially for people who find it too hard to drink hot coffee in the summer!
It really is a dream drink for coffee lovers.
Plus, it’s budget-friendly—so don’t waste your time and money standing in line to pay a fortune at an expensive coffee shop when you can make this at home for pennies!
Have it in place of your morning coffee, while you relax in front of the TV on the weekend, or sip it while sitting on your porch watching the sunset.
And if you want to add something extra, top it with whipped cream!
A little about lattes:
The term latte is a short way of saying caffè latte or coffee and milk.
Caffè latte is Italian and if you order “a latte” in Italy, chances are you won’t get a coffee, but rather a glass of milk.
In French, the term is cafè au lait and in Spanish, cafe con leche.
All of the above sound so much more romantic than just coffee with milk, don’t they?
Actually, it should be milk and coffee since it’s coffee made with a milk base instead of a water base with a little milk. But whatever.
Even though Europeans have been mixing coffee into their milk since at least the 1600s, nowadays, when one orders a latte, they mean is a contemporary coffee drink often made with hot milk and espresso.
This recipe, though, has a frozen milk base and instant coffee and while it may not be fashionable or stylish, it’s deliciously cool and refreshing!
And coffee can actually be good for you!

Easy Iced Instant Coffee Latte
Delicious and easy instant coffee blended with frozen milk and sugar.
Ingredients
- 8 ounces of milk, frozen + another 2 more ounces chilled from the fridge
- 1 teaspoons instant coffee
- 2 tablespoons white granulated sugar or to taste
Instructions
- Place the frozen milk, coffee, and sugar in a blender
- Blend until all of the milk is slush.
- If the iced latte is too thick for your taste, add the chilled milk—a very little at a time—until you reach your desired consistency.*
Notes
* Sometimes, the frozen milk will be dry and gather at the sides of the blender (unless you let it defrost a little first).. Adding a little extra milk will take care of that. Be careful to add only a very little at a time, otherwise you will lose the iciness of the drink.
