iced americano

Cold diluted espresso

An iced americano is espresso diluted with cold water and served over ice.

The drink preserves the espresso's strength and flavor while making it refreshing and less intense than straight shots.

It's a staple at coffee shops, often ordered by those who find iced lattes too creamy: I'll have an iced americano with an extra shot.
