Make cold coffee
Step 1 Blend in the ingredients
Put ice cubes in a blender jar and add coffee, milk, honey, cream, and about two tablespoons of ice cream. If you don’t have a blender just take a shaker and put milk, honey, coffee, and cream and give it a nice stir and then shake it! If you like your cold coffee extra creamy, then add some fresh cream and shake it well.
Step 2 Add ice cream and chocolate syrup to relish!
Blend it in the mixer, take some ice cubes and then pour it into glasses. Put a scoop of vanilla ice cream and top it with some chocolate syrup, nuts, and raisins. Relish this recipe with some savory delight!
How to Make Cold Coffee
Make Coffee Mixture
1. Firstly, add 1 tablespoon of instant coffee to a bowl. If using brewed filter coffee or espresso you can add ¼ cup directly to the blender jar.
2. Add ¼ cup of warm water (not hot) to the instant coffee. Stir and mix very well.
Blend Coffee Concoction
3. Add the coffee solution to a blender jar.
4. Next add 3 to 4 tablespoons of sugar.
5. Blend for a minute or until the coffee solution becomes frothy and the color fades to a lighter shade of brown.
Make Iced Cold Coffee
6. Add 6 or 7 ice cubes. For a thicker blended cold coffee use just 2 to 4 cubes of ice.
7. Then pour in 2 cups of chilled milk (500 ml). To make this recipe, I used whole milk. See FAQs below for low-fat cold coffee tips.
8. Blend once again for just a few seconds, until everything is mixed well and you get a nice frothy and foamy layer on top.
9. Pour into tall glasses and serve cold coffee immediately. The frothy top layer will settle into the beverage as it sits, so it’s best to enjoy blended iced coffee right away…
Expert Tips
- Coffee: Make use of your favorite brand of instant coffee. The instant coffee can be finely ground or in granules.
- Sweetener: Add your preferred sweetener. I always add raw sugar but you can experiment with various types of sugar like palm or coconut sugar or sweeteners like maple syrup or honey.
- For a stronger coffee flavor: If you prefer a stronger and slightly bitter taste in your cold coffee, increase the amount of instant coffee to 1.5 or 2 tablespoons.
- Creamy consistency: Include about ¼ cup of light or whipping cream while blending to make your cold coffee rich and creamy. You may need to add some sugar if you include cream. So do check the taste after the coffee is blended and add more sugar as needed..
