Frozen coffee: a delicious and refreshing treat that is perfect for hot summer days.
But how do you make it, and what does it taste like?
Step-By-Step Guide To Making Frozen Coffee
Ingredients and Equipment
To make frozen coffee, you’ll need a few simple ingredients:
1 cup of strong coffee (dark roast recommended)
4 tablespoons of milk
2 teaspoons of sugar
1 cup of Ice cubes
Optional
A few squirts of whipped cream
A dusting of chocolate shavings
Equipment:
1 Blender
1 Glass
The Process
Start by brewing a strong cup of coffee using your preferred method. We recommend you use a dark roast coffee, as it will have a bolder and more intense flavor that will stand out against the sweetness of the milk and sugar.
Next, add the milk and sugar to the coffee, and stir to combine. You can adjust the amount of milk and sugar depending on how you like it.
Once everything is mixed together, pour the coffee mixture into a blender, along with a generous amount of ice. You’ll want to use enough ice to create a thick and slushy texture, so don’t be afraid to add a lot (If you feel more is needed than the amount we’ve mentioned, then add more).
Next, blend the mixture until it is smooth and slushy. You may need to stop and scrape down the sides of the blender a few times to ensure that everything is well-mixed and smooth.
Once the frozen coffee is smooth and slushy, pour it into a glass and serve it immediately. You can garnish the frozen coffee with whipped cream or chocolate shavings, if you like, for a delicious taste on top of the lovely frozen coffee.
Extras You Can Add
If you want to take your frozen coffee game to the next level, there are many ways to customize and flavor your drink.
For instance, you could try adding a flavored syrup, such as vanilla or caramel, to give your frozen coffee a sweet and yummy boost. Or, for a bit of spice, you could try adding a sprinkle of cinnamon or nutmeg to your frozen coffee before it’s blended.
You could also experiment with the type of milk you’re using. If you’re using standard dairy milk, that’s fine, but you could be missing out. Personally, almond milk is one of the favorites at The Coffee Bros. It’s worth a try if you haven’t tried it before!
