How to Make Iced Coffee at Home
I don’t know about you, but I have been spending an ungodly amount of money on iced coffee these days. With Arizona summer temperatures topping at 115 degrees, nothing sounds like more of a turn-off than hot coffee. In my search to find economical and tasty ways to make iced coffee at home, I found an excellent method to get the caffeine kick without breaking the bank.
To begin, you will need to purchase ice cube trays. I bought mine in the clearance section at my local Fry’s for fifty cents. Fill the tray and freeze over night.
Fast forward to the next morning, fill your cup about half way with your fresh brewed morning cup of joe. Then, add your frozen “coffee cubes”. Before I add ice and creamer I like to wait about five minutes for my coffee to cool off so it doesn’t melt the additional ice.
Next, add your ice cubes. Be sure to leave about 1/2 inch to an inch of space at the top of your cup to add delicious creamers and sugars.
Last, add your cream and sugar. Stir and enjoy!
If you are an avid lover to iced coffee, you may want to invest in this Toddy brewing system. It is about $40 on Amazon.com. It makes delicious coffee and worth the money if you make ice coffee every day (JoAnn has one, I do not ::tear::).
