I don&#8217;t know about you Chicks, but when the weather heats up to these plus 30 temps, the last thing I want is a hot bevvie &#8211; but a Chick gets bored with water ALL the time (I&#8217;ve been drinking at least 3 litres a day!)<\/p>\n<p>Iced coffee is one of my faves &#8211; but when you hit up Timmy&#8217;s or Starbucks, those pricey bevvies are loaded with sugar and artificial flavourings (and is there even real coffee in an iced capp???)<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s an easy and healthy iced coffee recipe I like to whip up at home. Drink it with a straw if you wanna feel fancy.
