When I lived in Santiago, Tavelli coffee store was a favorite stop for me. I loved having iced coffee during the summer; Homemade Iced Coffee is the perfect treat to have before going to the movies or out with friends. Since besides the iced coffee included whipped cream and ice cream is a full meal.
Iced coffee is so simple that you need to use the best ingredients to make it, brew an espresso, buy or make a good vanilla ice cream (not diet) and use sugar and heavy cream.
