October 28th, 2009 by Rexx
I tried to make iced coffee this morning and it was not good at all! ahah! I made espresso and added milk with some irish cream and ice, and needless to say it was NOT good. would it be better to use regular coffee? or anyone have a good recipe or method to make a good iced coffee?

What I do is make a regular pot of coffee and let it cool. I then put it in a pitcher & stick it in the fridge… let it get nice and cold. When I’m ready to have a glass, I load up on ice cubes, add some lowfat creamer and splenda. I love it. What my mom would do, is the same thing except she kept a full pitcher already mixed with creamer and sugar. You can add flavors like vanilla, but it’s all to your own taste. I wouldn’t add ice cubes in the pitcher, only the individual glass. It tends to get dilluted when it’s in a pitcher. Hope this helps.

Boiled and cooled milk
fresh cream
instant coffee powder
sugar
vanilla ice cream
Put the ingredients except ice cream, in a blender or juicer to make a shake. Pour the drink in a bowl and put it in refrigerator and let it be cool. After taking from fridge, pour the drink in a glass and add the ice cream.

i do this every morning. put ice cubes in a glass. do alot of ice cubes. they melt. then add LOTS of creamer. it sounds gross but just do. make sure its liquid creamer though. add your coffee. stir with like a chop stick or something. viola! if you want it like a milkshake. do all that & then put it in a blender. if you put it in a blender you can add chocolate sauce & sprinkles or whatever. it tastes EXACTLY like starbucks. i swear.
