Summer is finally here, and nothing beats a cup of freshly brewed iced coffee. With its refreshing flavour and perfect kick, this chilled beverage is rightfully every coffee lover's go-to drink. That being said, a video of a cafe in Japan's Kyoto serving iced coffee inside a real ice cube is making rounds on the internet. This viral video was shared on Instagram. The clip opens by showing a waiter serving iced coffee to a customer, carrying a tray that includes a massive ice cube with a glass-shaped hole. The cube is placed next to a jug filled with chilled coffee and a scoop of vanilla ice cream in a bowl. Additionally, there's a small portion of milk and sugar syrup on the tray. The waiter then pours the beverage into the glass-shaped hole, and the customer can be seen adding milk to it. After stirring it with a straw, she adds the ice cream scoop.
In a detailed note shared along with the video, the user revealed that this iced coffee is sold for 2000 Yen, which is ₹1,072.61. Additionally, only 5 customers per day are served this iced coffee. The user wrote, "Restaurant that serves iced coffee inside a real ice cube. This ice cube is made specially for this menu by an ice master, and you pour the cold-brewed coffee inside to drink. Served with milk, syrup, and vanilla ice cream. There are 2 portions of coffee, so for the 1st cup, drink it black or as an iced latte to enjoy the flavour of coffee itself. For the 2nd portion, drop in the vanilla ice cream and enjoy a cold ice cream float!" Watch the full video here:
