Cold Coffee (Cafe Style Recipe)
Iced and refreshing, Cold Coffee serves as an exquisite indulgence during sun-soaked days. This Cold Coffee rendition presents a timeless approach to crafting blended iced coffees that boast ideal sweetness, creaminess, and frothiness – reminiscent of the offerings from your beloved café!
Ingredients
- 1 tablespoon instant coffee – powder or granules
- ¼ cup warm water
- 3 to 4 tablespoon raw sugar or add as required
- 2 cups whole milk – cold or chilled
- 6 to 8 ice cubes or as needed – optional
Instructions
- In a blender take your instant coffee, raw sugar, add warm water.
- Blend for a minute or until the coffee solution becomes frothy and the brown color lightens a bit.
- Add 6 to 7 ice cubes. For a thick cold coffee, you can reduce the ice cubes from 2 to 4.
- Pour 2 cups cold milk.
- Whole milk gives a slightly thicker consistency and is richer. You can opt to make the cold coffee with skimmed milk or low-fat milk. If you decided to add either, then reduce the ¼ cup water to about 2 to 3 tablespoons.
- Blend for 1 to 2 minutes or until the milk is mixed evenly with the coffee concoction and you see a nice frothy layer on top.
- Pour in glasses and serve cold coffee. The frothy top layer will settle into the beverage as it sits, so it’s best to enjoy blended iced coffee right away.
