Iced Coffee is a flavoured milk drink sold widely in Australia. Some commercial varieties of iced coffee are made from real coffee while others contain only coffee flavouring. Most commercial varieties of iced coffee have 2-3 times the caffeine of Coca-cola but less sugar.

Iced coffee has been sold commercially in Australia since the late 19th century in the form of a syrup, and more recently as a pre-packaged drink that is ready to consume as soon as it is opened.

Sales of iced coffee have reportedly surpassed sales of chocolate milk in some parts of the country.

Home made iced coffee is often served with ice cream and whipped cream and is often compared to a milk shake.
