Iced latte is on 148 Gold Coast cafe menus and has been posted by cafes in 50 Gold Coast suburbs.
Espresso poured over cold milk and ice, often with a flavoured syrup or a cold foam on top: milky, mild and served in a clear cup. A typical iced latte, drawn from Gold Coast cafes' own posts, is built from the top down with straw (stir before you drink), espresso (a double shot, poured last so it swirls down through the milk), ice (fills the cup before anything is poured) and cold milk (about 200 ml, poured over the ice first). Each cafe makes its own version, so this is a typical build, not one cafe's recipe. In all our data to 14 Nov 2026, The Froth has seen it at 168 Gold Coast cafes across 50 suburbs, in posts, customer reviews and menus.

It is on 148 Gold Coast cafe menus right now, including White Lion Cafe Co in Bundall, Cafe Tahbella in Oxenford, Caramel Cafe in Helensvale and Deja Brew Cafe in Southport. 15 more cafes have posted it, though it is not on their current menu. The "Where to get one" list on this page has every one, with the price where the menu gives one, links to the menu or post, and directions. Menus change, so check with the cafe before you go.

It is well established rather than growing fast. The Froth rates iced latte as Mainstream as of 14 Nov 2026: it is on 41% of cafes in the last 90 days and holding steady. In the 90 days to 14 Nov 2026, 41% of the Gold Coast cafes we see well (an Instagram post or a current menu in that time) had it. Among the 444 cafes we have followed through both periods, 15 of the same cafes had it, against 5 in the 90 days before. Gold Coast searches for it were down 3% in Aug to Oct 2026 compared with Aug to Oct 2025.
There were 140 searches for iced latte in Gold Coast in Oct 2026, with all its names added up. Across the 23 months we have, from Dec 2024 to Oct 2026, it ranged from 70 searches (Jun 2025) to 170 (Oct 2025). These are monthly estimates of search demand in Gold Coast.
The earliest Gold Coast cafe post or customer review about iced latte that The Froth has is from 30 Jan 2022. We only see what we collect, so that is when we first saw it, not when it started: it may have been sold earlier, here or elsewhere.
A cafe counts for iced latte from the first public post or customer review we found about it, the cafe's own post or a customer's, and while it is on the cafe's current menu. Shares are of the cafes we see well: those with an Instagram post or a current menu in the same 90 days, a chain counting once. A change compares the same cafes in the last 90 days with the 90 before, only among cafes we have followed through both, so newly added cafes never look like growth. The 90 days end on the latest day with cafe posts or reviews (14 Nov 2026), not today. Searches are monthly search demand in Gold Coast with all of a trend's names added up. Captions stay private; we only link to public posts. The full method is on our "How we track cafe trends" page.
