Pret
Pret has three iced coffee varieties: an iced black americano, an iced latte and an iced mocha. They range from 2 to 163 kCal, respectively.
The latte values for £3.30 for a 16 fl oz serving. According to Delish, the coffee has a rich and toasty taste, with a hint of caramel, that works well for the low price.
Costa Coffee
On the same price level, Costa has a cheap iced latte. Delish describes it as a fruity, toasty roast with a nice balance of milk.
The latte totals £3.30 for 16 fl oz.
Starbucks
Starbucks has a long list of iced beverages, from cold brews and coffees to lattes and mochas.
Its iced latte costs about £3.50 for 16 fl oz. It comes with two shots of espresso and 2 percent milk.
Caffé Nero
Caffé Nero’s iced coffee is on the more expensive side. The iced latte retails for £3.70 for 16 fl oz.
Delish ranked the flavour low as well, saying there was too much milk to get any real notes from the coffee itself.
