you can buy it online and its quite good. google trung nguyen and get one of those top hat filters and some of the sweetened condensed milk.
I tried one of these the other day and was impressed:

The coffee and almond flavors combine in a way that is super tasty.
I notice Wal-Mart now sells jugs of Starbucks ice coffee.
I love my iced coffee,but black only——no sweetener.

I pay about 85 cents a pot.

I make iced coffee. I grind and perk dark roast coffee beans, I have two percolators. I use decaf, and let it perk dark. Put it in half gallon containers and add about 1/3 to 1/4 milk when I serve. Doesn’t need ice when stored at bottom of fridge and tastes mighty good on an hot day.
Dad drank iced coffee all his life. I also make a mean from scratch iced tea, with lemon slices.

To each his own but I wouldn’t drink the stuff.
Same here, I’d never heard of iced coffee (or of a drink called iced coffee) when younger, even though my dad would freeze leftover coffee into cubes and use it to cool down the next day’s coffee. But it’s delicious in a hot and muggy New York summer.
Iced is awful....for me.
Here is my morning coffee recipe
I grind dark roast one a week and keep it in the freezer in a jar.
At night spoon the right amount of ground coffee in a pot
Add desired amour of water
Next morning simmer for 5 minutes
Strain with fine mesh kitchen strainer
Drink black and hot, no sugar
Sometimes I add a spoon of thick black molasses
The little cups are ok if you feel like sharing with friends but you haven’t lived until you drink a whole colada by yourself and toss the little cups into the wastebasket unused.
