Lemon Blueberry Muffins + Iced Coffee

A warm bake and a cold drink, planned as a pair: that is the whole idea of this set, and we cooked and filmed both in one video. Sequence matters here. Get the muffins into the oven first, since they take 20–25 minutes at 180°C (350°F) plus a little while for the lemon glaze to set glossy and crackly. The coffee comes together in under 5 minutes, so build it last, right in the serving glass, and everything lands on the table at once.

The pairing suits a slow weekend morning or an afternoon when a neighbor drops by. Neither half asks for special gear. The drink skips the coffee machine entirely, and the bake is ordinary muffin-tin work with everyday ingredients plus fresh berries.

If the day is too hot to face the oven, begin with the coffee on its own. Save the muffins for a cooler morning, then make the drink again to go alongside.
