Iced and cold brewed coffee keeps Toronto cool and caffeinated during the warm summer months. These coffee-based beverages aren't just watered down glasses of drip on ice; rather, this collection of drinks includes carefully crafted concoctions and next level cold brews.

Here are five great takes on iced and cold brewed coffee in Toronto.

Mexican Iced Coffee
All-day Mexican eatery Cafeteria makes its iced coffee with two shots of espresso and flavours it with agave, cinnamon syrup, mole and orange bitters.

Spiced Iced Coffee
Swedish-inspired Fika Cafe in Kensington Market offers cold espresso bevies with milk, cardamom bitters, simple syrup and fresh mint.

Viet Coffee on Ice
Cool down at Pho Hung where the Cà phê sữa đá is the perfect pick-me-up. The Vietnamese filtered coffee comes chilled on ice and sweetened with condensed milk.

Iced Cafe Con Leche
At La Cubana, a cafe con leche, sweetened with molasses demerara sugar and whole milk, is a menu staple. They'll put the creamy, bevy on ice by request.

Nitro Cold Brew
Pilot makes a canned cold brew available at their three locations and a growing number of cafes in Toronto. It's also used as the base for the cold brewed cocktails available at their Wagstaff tasting bar.
