1 1/2 teaspoons instant coffee

1 1/2 teaspoons sugar

1-1/2 teaspoons is the same as 1/2 a tablespoon or 1 very heaping teaspoon.
If you are out of either powdered creamer or dry milk, then double up on the one you do have. This would be 1/4-cup of dry milk powder or 1-tablespoon of powdered creamer.

Time 10m

Yield 24 half-cup scoops, 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 3

Ingredients

8 ounces instant coffee
16 ounces powdered chocolate milk mix
24 ounces powdered milk

Steps:

Empty the 8 oz instant coffee into a mixing bowl.
Use the now-empty jar to measure out 2 jars of chocolate milk mix (16 oz).
Use the jar to measure out 3 jars of powdered milk (24 oz).
Mix thoroughly, and run through a blender or food processor, so that the powder is of a relatively similar consistency.
Put mix into jars for gift-giving, or to pace out your own consumption.
Use a quarter-cup of mix per 1 cup of hot water.

Tips:

Use fresh ingredients: The fresher the ingredients, the better your coffee will taste. If possible, buy whole beans and grind them yourself just before brewing.
Measure your coffee and water accurately: The ratio of coffee to water is important for getting the right flavor. A good starting point is to use 2 tablespoons of coffee for every 6 ounces of water.
Use the right water temperature: The ideal water temperature for brewing coffee is between 195 and 205 degrees Fahrenheit. If the water is too hot, it will extract bitter flavors from the coffee. If the water is too cold, it will not extract enough flavor.
Brew your coffee for the right amount of time: The brewing time will vary depending on the type of coffee you are using and your personal preferences. A good starting point is to brew your coffee for 4-6 minutes.
Serve your coffee immediately: Coffee is best enjoyed fresh. Once it has been brewed, it will start to lose its flavor. If you need to store your coffee, keep it in a sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours.
