Ingredients
Scale
- Coffee ice cubes *
- 1 cup of coffee, chilled or at room temperature
- Brown sugar simple syrup (½ cup of brown sugar: 1 cup of water) *
- ¼ cup of milk of choice
Instructions
- To begin, use up leftover coffee from the end of the day and pour it into silicone ice trays. I used a skeleton silicone mold for a fun surprise. Allow the ice cubes to freeze prior to making your coffee.
- Next, you need to make your simple syrup. I like to make a batch of this for the week. Combine water and brown sugar in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir the mixture until all the sugar dissolves. Do not let the mixture boil. Remove from heat and let it cool to room temperature.
- Fill a tall glass with coffee ice cubes.
- Pour your chilled or room temperature coffee in the glass.
- Add in your desired amount of sweetness using your simple syrup. I use only a little bit of sweetener. You can add more or less as you like.
- Add your milk of choice.
- Stir your ingredients together and enjoy!
Notes
* This recipe can be made in a few short minutes. However, you need to make sure you do some prep work ahead of time. Both the skeleton coffee ice cubes and brown sugar simple syrup need to be prepared before making your iced coffee.
