Coffee served at a low temperature.
Contexto cultural
In the last decade, 'Coffee Shops' have become the primary social hub for young Iranians, replacing traditional tea houses (Ghahve-khaneh). Ordering 'Ghahve-ye sard' is a sign of being part of this modern, urban culture. If you are a guest, your host will usually insist on serving hot tea. If you ask for 'Ghahve-ye sard', they might be surprised but will try to accommodate you with ice. The use of 'Ice Coffee' (آیس کافی) as a loanword is very common in menus, showing the influence of English on Persian culinary terms.

If you want it really cold with lots of ice, say 'Ba yakh-e ziad' (with lots of ice).
The Ezafe
Don't forget the 'ye' sound between the words, or it will sound like you are just listing words from a dictionary.
