My friend, Em, was visiting a couple of weeks ago and when we were out and about she picked up an iced coffee at Starbucks. As I snuck a few sips I was reminded how much I love that stuff and then started thinking, why doesn't my inner barista do some magic at home and make a little iced coffee to beat the (way too early) spring heat!
What you need:
2 cups of deliciously strong coffee
(I make my coffee in an stove top espresso maker)
2 cups of milk (preferably 2% or whole milk)
2 T Sugar
Pour 2 cups of hot, strong coffee into
the vessel you will store the iced drink in
and add 2 tablespoons of sugar, stir until
dissolved.
After sugar is completely dissolved
in the coffee, add 2 cups of milk and
you are set to you! Cool in refrigerator,
and serve over ice. Makes 4 delish glasses.
Keeps well for up to 3 days.
As for me, I am off to sip my iced coffee and read on
a blanket in the backyard, while my little sweets naps.
This looks like pure heaven and I want to be there with you. Remember when you got me hooked on this delicious iced coffee last summer (with a little oreo on the side!)? I think it's time to reinstate my afternoon iced coffee, especially since it's going to be 80 on Sunday in Minnesota! You rock!
