Yield 2 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup double-strength brewed coffee
1 cup low-fat milk
2 tablespoons unsweetened natural cocoa powder
2-3 tablespoons pure maple syrup
1/8 teaspoon vanilla extract
1-2 ice cubes
hm... a dash of vanilla stolichnaya would really set this on its feet

Steps:

  • 1. Freeze coffee in an ice cube tray until firm, at least 4 hours or overnight. 2. Combine the frozen coffee cubes, milk, cocoa, maple syrup to taste and vanilla in a blender. Pulse until smooth, adding plain ice cubes if you want it thicker or a little water 3. if you want it thinner. Divide between 2 glasses, dust with a little cocoa powder, if desired, and serve immediately. Tips & Notes Tip: Double-strength coffee or espresso gives you the best coffee flavor when making blended or iced coffee drinks. If the coffee isn’t strong enough, the drink will taste watered-down. To brew double-strength coffee, use twice the amount of grounds as you normally would for a regular cup of coffee. Espresso is strong enough brewed regularly.
