Iced coffee is our all-time favorite pick-me-up, especially on a hot afternoon — and, let's be real, sometimes you need caffeine and dessert simultaneously. There's something about the combination of toasty, roasty coffee and icy, creamy sweetness that sends shivers up our spines. Since experimenting with being your own barista is *so* much fun, throw on an apron and try your hand at making one of these unique iced coffee recipes.
