Quick take

A simple iced Chaga mushroom coffee recipe using Urban Calm Onward Light Roast, ice, optional maple and a splash of milk.

The best part is that it still tastes like iced coffee. Brew Onward a little stronger than normal, chill it and keep the rest of the recipe restrained.

Onward gives this drink a lighter coffee base with Chaga already blended into the roasted coffee.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup strongly brewed Urban Calm Onward, chilled
  • Ice
  • 1 to 2 tsp pure maple syrup, optional
  • Splash of milk or oat milk, optional
  • Pinch of cinnamon, optional

How to make it

  1. Brew Onward slightly stronger than your usual hot cup.
  2. Let it cool, then chill in the refrigerator.
  3. Fill a glass with ice.
  4. Pour in the coffee.
  5. Add maple and milk only if you want them.
A K-Cup works for this recipe too. Use a smaller brew size if you want the iced coffee to stay stronger.

Use coffee ice cubes if you hate watered-down iced coffee

Freeze leftover brewed coffee in an ice tray, then use those cubes instead of regular ice. As they melt, they add coffee instead of water.

Why Onward works

Onward is Urban Calm's light roast. It is a good place to start when you want an iced drink that stays refreshing rather than heavy.

Iced mushroom coffee can be as simple as strong brewed coffee, ice and whatever amount of milk or sweetness you enjoy.
