Copycat Dunkin Iced Coffee Recipe

Obviously, the coffee is the star ingredient of this recipe, and it's easy to make it customized exactly to your taste. Olayinka's version of Dunkin' Donuts' iced coffee calls for your favorite brand of instant coffee, but you could easily swap that out for cold brew or regular coffee prepared using your preferred method.

The only other things you need for this recipe are sugar, milk, ice, and a couple of glasses. Throw in some fun straws if you want your iced coffee to look as good as it tastes!

Now it's time to wait. Place the sweetened coffee in the fridge for around 45 minutes, or until it's chilled through. If you're making your coffee first thing in the morning, you can let it chill while you're going about your morning routine, and then serve it up once you're ready for your day. Another option could be to prepare the sweetened coffee the night before and let it chill while you sleep. This is our preferred choice, as it guarantees our coffee is chilled and ready to help us start the day the second we roll out of bed in the morning. 

There are all sorts of ways you could change this recipe to make it your own. "Different flavors could be chocolate, hazelnut, salted caramel, mint chocolate chip, simple vanilla, toasted coconut," Olayinka says of the various kinds of coffee you could use. "The possibilities are exciting!!"

If you're dairy- or sugar-free, there are also ways to modify this recipe to your tastes. "Milk can definitely be subbed for vegan milk like almond or oat," Olayinka says. "And sugar can be subbed for honey or agave nectar. Or even a sweetener if you are sugar-free." If you'd prefer to make one big batch rather than preparing it by the glass, that's an easy change to make as well. "I would double or even triple the recipe if need be," Olayinka says. "Just be careful as the milk will start to separate, so this will keep well for 1-2 days."
