Frozen Coffee

You won’t have to wait in line to enjoy this frosty coffee drink. Instead, you can quickly recreate this coffeehouse favorite at home.

Ingredients

2 tbsp (30 mL) ground coffee
1 tbsp (15 mL) sugar
1 cup (250 mL) ice
¼ cup (60 mL) half & half or milk of choice
½ cup (125 mL) whipped cream
Optional: chocolate syrup and mini chocolate chips

Directions

Using the ground coffee insert of the Deluxe Coffee Machine, fill the filter with ground coffee. Adjust the drip tray to your desired height and add sugar to a mug. Place it on the tray plate.
Select the 6 oz. (175-mL) size option and press start. After it chimes, remove the mug and stir until the sugar is dissolved. Chill in the refrigerator for about 1 hour.
Add the ice, chilled coffee, and half & half into a blender and cover, and blend until frothy.
Pour the coffee mixture into a large drinking glass. Top with whipped cream and garnish with chocolate syrup and chocolate chips, if you'd like.

Cook's Tips:

To make a mocha-flavored blended coffee, replace the sugar with chocolate syrup.

No blender? No problem! You can make a delicious iced coffee by combining the chilled coffee with half & half, and pour it over the ice cubes. Then, follow the rest of the recipe as directed.

To make whipped cream, add ¼ cup (60 mL) of heavy cream, 2 tsp (10 mL) of powdered sugar, and ¼ tsp (1 mL) of vanilla extract to a medium bowl. Whisk until peaks form.
