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:
- Add the sachet to 110 ml water and mix until smooth.
- Drop in 85 g of ice and stir.
- 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:
- Add the sachet, 75 ml cold milk, and 110 g ice to a blender.
- Blend to a thick, creamy, frosty finish.
- 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.
