If you’re looking to beat the heat, Nespresso’s new Barista Creations for Ice range features blends that taste their best when chilled.
We all love summer – well, most of us – but the heat of the season is a two-edged blade. It’s the perfect companion when you’re on a junk or headed to the beach, but it’s not great when you’re zipping between meetings like an out of control lawn sprinkler, or trying to keep from murdering everyone on your commute home. What you need is an excuse to chill.

The new Barista Creations for Ice range from Nespresso features coffee blends that reach their full potential when poured over ice. In creating the new range, Nespresso coffee gurus spent five years tasting iconic iced recipes from around the world (now there’s a tough gig) to uncover what makes the ultimate iced coffee.
After developing over 100 coffee prototypes and accumulating knowledge and expertise, the capsule coffee company has unveiled two new coffee blends that go perfectly with ice – Freddo Delicato and Freddo Intenso.

While Freddo Delicato is a lightly roasted coffee for sippers who prefer things sweet and mild, Freddo Intenso, a blend of South American and Indonesian Arabica beans, transforms into an intense, full-bodied brew when it touches the ice cubes.

And don’t limit yourself to day-time wake-me-up beverages. The new range also lends itself perfectly to home bar musings, from espresso martinis to the elusive Alive & Kicking, a blend of coffee, Scotch, and citrus.
That’s keep you cool in more than one way.
