You only need a few simple ingredients to make a refreshing creamy iced coffee beverage that will rival any store-bought version.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup of strong cold-brew coffee
- Vanilla Sweet Cream:
- 1/2 cup heavy cream
- 1/4 cup milk (any type works)
- 2-3 tablespoons vanilla syrup (or 2 tablespoons sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract)
- Ice
Instructions:
Make the Vanilla Sweet Cream:
- Combine heavy cream, milk, and vanilla syrup (or sugar and vanilla extract) in a jar or container.
- Shake vigorously or use a frother until the mixture is foamy and doubled in volume.
Assemble the Drink:
- Fill a tall glass with ice.
- Pour cold brew coffee over the ice.
- Slowly top with the vanilla sweet cream. It will create a beautiful layered effect.
- Optional: Sprinkle with a touch of cinnamon
Notes:
- Making Cold Brew: If you don’t have cold brew, steep 1/2 cup coarsely ground coffee in 2 cups of cold water for 12-24 hours in the fridge. Strain before using.
- Adjusting Sweetness: Start with 2 tablespoons of vanilla syrup/sugar and add more if you like it sweeter.
- Flavour Variations: Try other syrups like caramel, hazelnut, or brown sugar for a twist.
- Store unused vanilla sweet cream in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
