Notes
An iced cortado can be made with milk or other non-dairy products, but it needs two espresso shots to make it bitter and pungent. Adding ice cubes will make it a cold drink.
This is ideal for those who don’t want extra calorie content. Because an iced Cortado has fewer calories, it only adds calories from milk.
