How are iced coffees typically made? I see some places have a mixture of cold espresso and water pre mixed, while others make a fresh shot of espresso and then pour over ice. Which method is better? Please help me as I am a novice. Does this work the same with blended coffees?

Thanks

Iced Coffee

For espresso based iced bevs.: the way that I was trained is to always brew a fresh shot of espresso for each drink. As for regular coffee: depends on where I was working at the time. I always found that using fresh coffee (or at least brewed that day) was far superior in taste.

I have found that brewing a fresh shot is better, as well as mixing everything in a Martini shaker and shaking it, you get a bit of froth, but it really mixes the flavors well.
