Frozen Coffee - A Miracle in My Kitchen


After 3 years or attempting to perfect the at home, blended, frozen coffee I have succeeded!

There are so many flavor variation I have yet to try, but the basic, mocha and caramel are done!

I highly recommend using espresso in these drinks. (See my previous blog "Coffee, Tea, and Me - Part 2: Coffee/Espresso" for a low cost incredible way to make espresso at home.)

FROZEN COFFEE


(*Note - this recipe make about 44 oz. of iced coffee. I have included a single serving version below.)
  • Fill a blender with approximately 4 1/2 cups of ice cubes.
  • Add 6 shots of espresso (entire contents of Stove Top Espresso Maker)
  • Blend espresso and ice.
  • Add 1 cup powdered dry milk
  • 1/2 c. splenda or sugar
  • Blend all again. If the drink is as thick as you want it pour it out into 3 medium servings or 2 large servings.
If you want it thicker add about 1 cup more ice cubes and blend again.
  • Mocha - add about a 6 second squirt of Hershey's chocolate syrup
  • Caramel - add you favorite caramel syrup about 1 tablespoon at a time until it tastes how you want it.
