Last week I shared my Iced Coconut Green Tea which was the first official post for my drink series. Today I decided to share with you one of my favorite, easy to make coffee recipes. If you remember from my last coffee post, found here, I can only drink cold coffee in the afternoons! So, the chemist in me has been experimenting in the kitchen to bring you a really awesome, cold caffeine boost 🙂
I have some frozen coffee recipes in my repertoire that involve actually freezing the coffee, then blending. I love doing that too, but I very rarely remember to freeze my coffee hours before I need it. So, I came up with a quicker way to achieve a nice frozen, frothy coffee boost!
Quick Frozen Caramel Coffee
♥ 8 oz of very strong coffee (I used 8 oz of water with 2 big tsp of instant)**
♥ 1/2 cup almond milk
♥2 tsp caramel extract**
♥2 packets of truvia (or sweetener of your choice, feel free to add more or less depending on sweetness preference)
♥ 1-2 cups of ice
♥ Optional: 1/2 cup salted caramel arctic zero (or any frozen caramel ice cream/frozen yogurt)
Blend everything except the optional frozen treat. If choosing the 1/2 cup of frozen caramel treat, add that to your glass first, slightly thawed. Fill up the rest of your cup with frozen coffee. Obviously, that part is optional!
** Chemist Notes → Make sure you use very strong coffee to keep a nice rich flavor. Extract is a fantastic way to add different flavors to almost anything. I have a plethora of extracts in my kitchen for everything from baking to drinks to cooking. This is my favorite caramel extract : Watkins Caramel Extract It has a nice smooth flavor!
I love Arctic Zero for an easy, healthy treat that is dairy free ↑. I have trouble finding it in my area, so you can also use another type of frozen caramel treat like a yogurt or ice cream 🙂
