'It's such a gorgeous reason to wake up in the morning,' Bethenny Frankel fawns over her brand new Cumulus Machine. Starting at $695, the coffee maker signals the future of iced, caffeinated beverages.
The former Real Housewife of New York took to Instagram to share her pick for the best iced coffee maker with a video of the Cumulus Machine (available at Cumulus). Firstly, she loves it because the look is just as sleek as the coffee is delicious. She states: 'I keep telling so many people about this machine. It's an expensive piece that's worth it. This is a rich bitch coffee maker we're not going to slice it any other way. Look how gorgeous it is.'
However, the deeper reason she believes it's the best coffee maker is its capabilities. Bethenney presses the center button explaining: ''The middle is nitro. Froths like you're in Austrailia having an iced coffee.' She continues, 'Gorgeous frothy iced coffee every morning. You're welcome. It's the best. This is the Rolls-Royce Cullinan of coffee.'
This sleek machine is gorgeous on any countertop. It makes nitro cold brew, cold brew, and iced espresso at the touch of a button for all of your cold coffee needs met instantly.
The innovative machine is the first of its kind to be designed exclusively for cold beverages. It makes nitro cold brew, cold brew, and cold espresso without any ice needed. With the shift in luxury kitchen trends towards an emphasis on quality, an appliance like this that turns coffee into an experience will grow ever more popular. With summer coming (and iced coffee season already upon us, we dare say), it's the perfect time to invest.
Alternatives Tested by Our Kitchen Editor
If you want to make excellent iced coffee this summer, you don't need to just stick to Bethenny's recommendation. Here are the top picks from Homes & Gardens's Kitchen Editor, Lydia Hayman. Our list of inexpensive coffee makers is another great place to look, if you are hoping for a budget-friendly buy.
We've also listed some coffee accessories essentials (including some must-have tall glasses for those all-important iced coffees). It's the season, after all...
This automatic machine has a menu of 52 different coffees, including cold brew and iced coffee. It comes with a cold foam carafe, so you can make iced lattes at the touch of a button.
Ideal for all your hot drinks, this set of stackable cups looks beautiful in any coffee station. The natural glaze and neutral hues enhance the relaxing rituals of coffee. They're available in a set of four, so they're perfect for when you have guests around for a drink.
Six brewing modes, a 12-oz capacity, and special over ice concentrate make this the best drip iced coffee maker on the market. It's tricky to clean, but that's all we could fault in our testing.
Ribbed glassware is all the rage right now. This collection from Wayfair is BPA-free and dishwasher-safe for an effortless clean-up once you've enjoyed your coffee.
You won't find a better capsule machine for iced coffee. All you need is Nespresso's iced coffee pods, and you're away. It's a good price, but you have to buy the milk frother separately.
These glasses are inspired by the tactile, natural interiors at Soho Roc House, overlooking the sea in Greece. Each piece has subtle variations in tone and finish, meaning they're all individual. They're made for highballs, but we think they're just as perfect for an iced coffee this summer.
Luxury isn't just about having the most expensive items; it's about integrating rituals that elevate each day. The perfect cup of coffee is an amazing place to start.
