How to Make Cold Coffee at Home
Side-by-side iced latte and blended frappe in glasses on a wood table, showing two ways to make cold coffee at home

Cold coffee shouldn't need a café queue or a machine that costs more than your phone. It should take about a minute, and taste like it took much longer.

There are two easy ways to make cold coffee at home: a quick iced latte, a sachet stirred with water and ice, and a frosty blended frappe made with milk and ice for proper café texture.

Here's how to make each.

The easy way: a quick iced latte

Our Latte sachets have the milk built in, so this one is as simple as it gets — just water and ice.

You'll need:

  • 1 Ten15 Vanilla or Caramel Latte sachet
  • 110 ml water
  • 85 g ice (about a handful)

How to make it:

  1. Add the sachet to 110 ml water and mix until smooth.
  2. Drop in 85 g of ice and stir.
  3. That's it — a cold, creamy latte over ice.

For the smoothest finish, a handheld coffee frother is worth having — it dissolves everything in seconds and gives a silkier mix. Not essential; a spoon does the job. But if you own one, use it here.

The frosty way: a blended frappe

For that thick, frozen, café-style texture, you'll want a frappe. This one earns its blender — the blending is what makes it frosty.

You'll need:

  • 1 Ten15 Vanilla or Caramel Frappe sachet
  • 75 ml cold milk
  • 110 g ice

How to make it:

  1. Add the sachet, 75 ml cold milk, and 110 g ice to a blender.
  2. Blend to a thick, creamy, frosty finish.
  3. Pour into a tall glass.

Make it your way

  • Vanilla iced latte — clean, creamy, the everyday pour.
  • Caramel frappe — thick and frosty, closer to dessert.
  • Extra bold — a little Ten15 freeze-dried Espresso stirred into either.
  • Coffee milkshake — add a scoop of vanilla ice cream to the frappe before blending.

Café coffee, without the café price

The maths is simple. A cold or iced coffee at a Karachi café runs anywhere from PKR 650 to over 1,100. A Ten15 sachet is a fraction of that, ready in a minute, made with real freeze-dried coffee — and you never have to leave the kitchen in the heat.

Same cup. None of the markup.

Frequently asked questions

How do you make cold coffee without a machine? Use a Ten15 Latte sachet — it already contains milk powder. Mix it with 110 ml water and 85 g ice and stir. No machine, no blender.

Do you need a blender for cold coffee? Only for a frappe. That frosty texture needs a blender. For a quick iced latte, a spoon (or a frother) is all you need.

Can you make cold coffee with just water? Yes — with a Latte sachet. The milk is already in the sachet, so water and ice are all you add.

Which Ten15 is best for cold coffee? The Latte sachets for a fast iced latte; the Frappe sachets for a thick, blended one. For extra strength, add freeze-dried Espresso.
