Description
A refreshing, café-style iced coffee infused with warm vanilla sweetness and silky milk, finished over clinking ice for the perfect cool sip.
Ingredients
- Freshly brewed strong coffee: 1 cup
- Vanilla syrup: 2 tablespoons
- Milk or cream: 1/2 cup
- Ice cubes: 1 cup
- Optional sugar or sweetener: 1 teaspoon
Instructions
- Brew 1 cup of strong coffee and let it cool slightly.
- Stir in the vanilla syrup while the coffee is still warm so it dissolves smoothly.
- Fill a tall glass with the ice cubes.
- Pour the cooled, vanilla-sweetened coffee over the ice.
- Add the milk or cream and adjust to your preferred creaminess.
- Stir gently to combine and create a pretty swirl.
- Serve immediately, optionally garnished with a vanilla bean or a pinch of cinnamon.
Notes
- For bolder flavor, freeze leftover coffee into ice cubes to avoid dilution.
- Use cold brew concentrate in place of brewed coffee for deeper, smoother notes.
- Froth the milk before adding for a latte-like texture.
