Cooling Coffee


Iced coffee is a double coffee recipe that will give you a buzz and at the same time feel refreshing and perfect for hot summer days. For lethargic days and lazy afternoons this drink will give you an instant boost of energy alongside you favorite gourmet recipe. Coffee ice cubes is used in this ice coffee instead of ice cubes made of water so the drink won’t get diluted as it melts. Instead, as the ice cubes melt the coffee flavor will even deepen!

Use freshly brewed coffee from freshly roasted beans that have been ground just before brewing for superior results. The taste of the drink will be determined by the quality of the beans you use. Good quality coffee will make a sumptuous drink. Bad rancid coffee will result in terrible tasting iced coffee. To sweeten the drink this recipe also uses sugar making a delicious dessert drink after a heavy meal. It can serve as a light dessert or treat. Top it with whipped cream or even vanilla, chocolate or coffee ice cream to make a float to make it even more delectable. Combined with coffee caramel or mocha ice cream also works.

After brewing the coffee to make the ice cubes, allow it to come to room temperature before placing it in the ice cube tray and placing in the freezer. The stronger the brew the better to make a rich and robust drink that will keep you energized throughout the day. It’s great to have cubes of coffee in the freezer so you can whip up this iced coffee drink anytime of the day or the week you feel like a refreshing drink. This also makes a great drink to serve to guests, or when you have people who come to your place unexpected. For a string coffee flavor, brew the coffee twice, placing the first brew in the machine and allowing it to drip a second time.
