Iced Coffee

As the author notes, iced coffee is better when the coffee itself has been chilled rather than pouring fresh coffee over ice. However, if the iced coffee is to be drunk right away, the chilled beverage is delicious over ice with a bit of heavy cream added. If using sugar you should dissolve it in a small amount of hot coffee before pouring over ice, or at least in a bit of hot water. Whipped cream? Yes, puh-leez!
