ICED CARAMEL COFFEE

I like to make up a batch of this early in the day so I know it will be well chilled when the afternoon heat rolls in. The whipped cream is optional, but - as always - a delicious touch. If you like making cold coffee drinks, do get in the habit of making coffee ice cubes since they won't dilute your drink. This tastes great made with Cinnamon Viennese coffee - in which case you can skip the cinnamon garnish. But any type coffee will do nicely. Time includes chilling.

Time 2h

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/2 cups strong hot brewed coffee
1/4 cup caramel sauce, plus a little extra for garnish
2 -3 tablespoons sugar, to taste
coffee ice cubes
1 1/2 cups cold milk or 1 1/2 cups half-and-half
whipped cream, for garnish (optional)
ground cinnamon, for garnish (optional)

Steps:

  • While the coffee is still hot, pour it into your measuring cup and add the caramel sauce (Hint, you needn't actually measure the sauce in a separate cup if you're using a 2-cup measure for the coffee. Just pour in the sauce until the coffee rises to the 1 3/4 cup mark0.
  • Add the sugar, too, then stir until both the sugar and caramel sauce have dissolved. Transfer to the refrigerator and chill until cold (You can hasten the process by using the freezer, but don't let it freeze.).
  • When you're ready to serve, divide the coffee between 2 tall chilled glasses filled with coffee ice cubes.
  • Add milk or half-and-half to each glass, to taste.
  • Top with whipped cream, if desired, then garnish with cinnamon if you're using it. Finally, drizzle a little additional caramel sauce over the top as well.
  • Serve.

Tips:

  • Choose high-quality coffee beans: Use freshly ground coffee beans for the best flavor. If possible, opt for organic or fair-trade beans.
  • Make a strong cup of coffee: Use twice the amount of coffee grounds you would normally use for a regular cup of coffee. This will ensure that the coffee flavor comes through strongly in the iced coffee.
  • Let the coffee cool completely: Before adding the caramel and coconut, make sure the coffee has cooled to room temperature. This will prevent the caramel from becoming too runny.
  • Use real caramel sauce: Avoid using store-bought caramel syrup, as it is often too sweet and artificial. Instead, make your own caramel sauce using sugar, butter, and cream.
  • Toast the coconut flakes: Toasting the coconut flakes will bring out their flavor and make them more fragrant. You can toast them in a pan over medium heat or in the oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 5-7 minutes.

Conclusion:

Caramel coconut iced coffee is a delicious and refreshing way to enjoy your favorite beverage. It is easy to make at home with just a few simple ingredients. By following these tips, you can make sure your iced coffee is perfect every time. Enjoy!
