Nespresso's Summer of '86: Limited Edition Ice Coffee Collections

On May 14, 2026, Nespresso, the famed coffee machine and capsule brand, is gearing up to unveil a special limited edition collection of ice coffee recipes to celebrate its 40th anniversary. The collection aptly named 'Summer of ‘86' draws inspiration from the brand's roots and the original summer flavors that defined its launch in 1986.

This year, one standout flavor making its debut is the 'Yuzu Vanilla Over Ice', featuring the vibrant aroma of yuzu—a Japanese citrus fruit—paired with smooth vanilla. This unique combination sets the stage for a refreshing summer coffee experience. In addition to this flavor, the collection will offer five distinctive ice coffee varieties for the Virtuo system and four for the Original system, ensuring there's something for everyone. Furthermore, stylish accessories featuring vibrant summer colors will be made available, enhancing the overall coffee experience while making ice coffee seem like a luxurious summer escape.

Nespresso has a deep dedication to quality coffee, ensuring every cup delivers a moment of bliss. This commitment starts from the cultivation of coffee cherries all the way to brewing the perfect cup at home. The brand’s aluminum capsules are designed to seal in the fresh flavors, allowing anyone to enjoy a café-quality experience at home with easy-to-use machines.

The limited edition ice coffee recipes for summer are specifically crafted for use over ice, maximizing the aromatic experience when poured. Each brew uses blends and roasts that have been meticulously designed to exude refreshing flavors perfect for leisurely afternoons at home or on the go during summer outings.

As part of the 'Summer of ’86' theme, Nespresso's collection creates an atmosphere of freedom and relaxation reminiscent of a joyful vacation. Along with the exciting new 'Yuzu Vanilla Over Ice' flavor, the brand also introduces familiar favorites such as smooth caramel and coconut vanilla flavored coffees. These offer versatility whether you choose to enjoy them black or with milk, providing an enhanced sensory experience.

The collection will also showcase trendy accessories to complement the ice coffee experience. Notably, the beloved ice coffee tumbler is back with a new bubblegum pink design, combining practicality and aesthetics that fit seamlessly into both busy mornings and sun-soaked afternoons. The iconic travel mug, praised for its vibrant pop colors, also rejoins the lineup with the lively 'City Sun Yellow', keeping beverages hot or cold all day.

In addition, the latest coffee maker 'Vertuo Up' promises to be the perfect companion for your summer coffee adventures. It features a dedicated button for the 'Coffee Creations Mode', allowing users to extract stronger and bolder flavors. The machine collaborates with around 40 varieties of Vertuo coffee, making it simple to extract directly over ice with a single touch, whether served black or mixed with milk alternatives.

Nespresso’s innovative 'Centrifusion™' technology automatically reads barcodes on coffee capsules to optimize extraction settings, crafting a cup with uniquely rich aroma and flavor. The rapid heating feature ensures that this exceptional taste is ready in seconds, elevating your iced coffee experience to new heights.
