Espresso poured over ice with cold milk, served in a clear cup with a lid and straw. Compared with a hot latte, the coffee stays more prominent because the milk isn’t heated and frothed, so the texture is thinner and the drink reads colder and lighter on the palate. McDonald’s keeps this on the menu year-round rather than as a seasonal special. As the ice melts, the drink loosens and the coffee flavour shifts a little. It sits alongside the chain’s other iced drinks as the plainest coffee-and-milk option.
