McDonald's iced coffee is made with real coffee from 100% Arabica beans, which are grown and harvested sustainably by Rainforest Alliance Farms. Arabica beans are high in sugar, so they provide sweet-smelling coffee, not bitter like Robusta or other beans. They also have antioxidant properties. The soft flavor in the Arabica beans is likely why McCafe chose this bean style. It appeals to many people. McCafé Iced Coffee is an excellent drink for relaxing, refreshing, and concentrating. It is made from coffee that contains 100% Arabica beans which provide an excellent taste and no artificial flavors or additives.
