How to Make Tiramisu Iced Coffee (Step-by-Step)

Step 1: Make Your Coffee

Prepare strong brewed coffee or a double shot of espresso and allow it to cool to room temperature. You can also chill it in the fridge for 10–15 minutes.

Step 2: Create the Creamy Tiramisu Layer

In a small bowl, whisk together mascarpone cheese, sugar, vanilla extract, and a splash of milk until smooth and creamy.

Step 3: Assemble the Drink

Fill a glass with ice. Pour in the espresso or coffee. Stir in the milk and (optional) coffee liqueur. Top with the mascarpone mixture and gently swirl to combine.

Step 4: Garnish and Serve

Dust with cocoa powder and add a dollop of whipped cream for an extra touch of indulgence. Serve immediately with a straw or stirring spoon.

Tips and Variations

  • Dairy-free version: Use a plant-based milk and dairy-free cream cheese.
  • Sugar-free version: Substitute sugar with stevia or erythritol.
  • More intense flavor: Add a splash of cold brew concentrate.

Healthier Tiramisu Iced Coffee Option

Cut down on calories by using unsweetened almond milk and skipping the whipped cream. You still get the amazing flavor with fewer indulgences.

Pair It With

This tiramisu iced coffee pairs perfectly with light pastries or breakfast treats. Try it alongside:

  • Mini Almond Biscotti
  • Vanilla Bean Scones
  • Overnight Oats with Cocoa Nibs

Can I make tiramisu iced coffee ahead of time?

Yes! Mix the espresso and milk base ahead and store it in the fridge. Add the mascarpone layer just before serving.

Can I skip the coffee liqueur?

Absolutely. The liqueur is optional and can be replaced with more vanilla extract.

Is mascarpone necessary?

Mascarpone adds authentic tiramisu flavor, but you can use cream cheese or a whipped cream alternative.
