Very tired of spending so much on iced coffees and other amazingly yummy drinks. Since I make all my chais at home, decided to take on iced coffees. Really, I find that what makes shop-bought so awesome is that they add a lot more sugar than I would at home.
Here are all the ingredients you need:
-Simple Sugar
.....in a saucepan (or in the micro, it's just that mine is unbelievably gross at the moment) heat half a cup of sugar and half a cup of water, stirring until it is all dissolved. I keep this solution (chemistry term, go high school!) in an old jam jar in the fridge for future coffee drinks or mojitos
-Cold Coffee
.....after the morning, whatever hasn't been drunk goes into a jar and right into the fridge. since i really can't do caffeine (and my husband's coffee is horrendously strong) it helps that you can dilute it a lot with the ice and milk
-Milk
.....or soy/rice/coconut/almond milk. you know what you can have
-Ice
..... that stuff that you make in the ice cube trays
first mix the coffee and simple sugar (when ice goes first it's hard to stir), then i fill the glass 3/4 up with ice and milk to the top. again, a lot of sugar is the secret to any dunkin donuts or mcD tasting iced coffee
