Ingredients
Scale:
2 cups of brewed coffee, cooled
1 cup of ice cubes
2 tablespoons of sweetener (sugar, honey, or a sugar alternative)
1/2 cup of milk or cream (optional for added creaminess)
1 tablespoon of vanilla, mocha, or caramel syrup (optional)
1 scoop of ice cream (optional for a coffee slush with ice cream)
1/4 cup of chocolate chips (optional for a coffee and chocolate slush)
1 tablespoon of coconut milk or almond milk (optional for a dairy-free alternative)
A pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg (optional for added spice)
Instructions
Brew the Coffee: Prepare 2 cups of coffee using your preferred method. Once brewed, allow it to cool completely. For a speedier process, chill the coffee in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes.
Blend the Ingredients: In a blender, combine the cooled coffee, ice cubes, and sweetener. Blend until the mixture reaches a slushy consistency. Consider using a high-powered blender to ensure an evenly distributed mixture.
Add Creaminess: If desired, add the milk or cream and blend for an additional 30 seconds to achieve a creamy texture. For an extra indulgent touch, add a spoonful of whipped cream directly to the blender before mixing.
Serve Immediately: Pour the frozen coffee slush into glasses and serve with a straw. Enjoy as it is or embellish with toppings. Consider garnishing with a dusting of cocoa powder or adding a cinnamon stick for a festive touch.
