VANILLA ICED COFFEE -- SIMPLE AND EASY



Vanilla Iced Coffee -- Simple and Easy image

It only takes a minute to make up a tall, cold glass of this refreshing, hot-weather drink. You've probably got all the ingredients on hand. While its best if you thought ahead to make some double-strong coffee, that last mugfull that got cold in the pot will do. ;) (I confess, I can't afford to use real vanilla all the time. The artificial kind works just fine in this for my tastes).

Tips:

  • Use Fresh Coffee Beans: For the best flavor, use freshly ground coffee beans. Pre-ground coffee loses flavor over time.
  • Cool Coffee Quickly: To prevent the coffee from becoming bitter, cool it quickly after brewing. You can do this by placing the coffee pot in an ice bath or by pouring the coffee over ice.
  • Use Good Quality Vanilla: The quality of the vanilla you use will make a big difference in the flavor of your iced coffee. Use real vanilla extract or vanilla paste, not imitation vanilla.
  • Adjust the Sweetness to Your Taste: The amount of sugar or sweetener you add to your iced coffee is a matter of personal preference. Start with a small amount and add more to taste.
  • Add Milk or Cream (Optional): If you like, you can add milk or cream to your iced coffee. This will make the coffee richer and creamier.

Conclusion:

Vanilla iced coffee is a refreshing and delicious drink that is perfect for enjoying on a hot summer day. It is easy to make and can be customized to your own taste preferences.
