Morphology
iced + coffee
The meaning 'coffee served cold over ice' is directly derivable from combining 'iced' (cooled/served with ice) with 'coffee' — a straightforward adjective + noun composition. This is a regular, cross-linguistically common construction, so a B1 learner who knows the constituent words will readily understand it.
Etymology
Iced coffee comes from the simple image of coffee poured over ice to make a 'cold' drink. So, the name literally says the coffee is iced, which is why it means 'coffee served cold over ice', often with milk, cream, or flavoring.
