How to make a delicious iced chocolate coffee

At Nespresso we spend our days crafting the delicious coffee blends available to you. And there’s no secret we love our chocolate too. In honour of the beautiful combination of coffee and chocolate, we’ve put together a recipe combining two of our favourite flavours: coffee and chocolate.

An iced chocolate coffee recipe for any occasion

Whether you’re making a cold drink for your own enjoyment, or organising a morning or afternoon tea for friends, this iced chocolate coffee recipe ticks all the boxes.

It’s easy, simple and fun to make. We use the intense and woody Ispirazione Palermo Kazaar blend to create this recipe. The Ispirazione Palermo Kazaar pod is exceptionally intense and syrupy. It brings together two Robustas from Brazil and Guatemala and a separately roasted Arabica from South America. Its bitterness and notes of pepper are balanced by a full and creamy texture. The perfect base for this drink.

If you want to explore some flavour combinations, play around with the coffee capsules you have and discover some new and exciting iced chocolate coffee recipes. And better yet, have fun testing and sampling the results.
