Which coffee works best?
For a well-balanced summer coffee drink, go with a smooth, citrusy or floral iced coffee, which plays nicely with the lemonade’s tartness.
Feeling bold? Try it with a darker roast for a punchier, more complex iced coffee lemonade.
Espresso twist:
Craving something even more intense? Sub in a double shot of our Vision espresso (diluted slightly) instead of iced coffee. The rich espresso amps up the contrast and delivers a deeper, more aromatic take on this summery sipper.
(P.S. Check out our Espresso 101 guide for the perfect shot.)
