Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Brewed coffee (strong or espresso)
- 0.5 cup Milk (or plant-based alternative)
- 1.5 cups Ice cubes
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar (or sweetener of choice)
- 0.5 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.25 cup Whipped cream
- 1 tablespoon Chocolate syrup (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Brew 1 cup of strong coffee or espresso and let it cool to room temperature. For a faster option, you can use pre-made chilled coffee.
In a blender, combine the cooled coffee, milk, ice cubes, granulated sugar (adjust sweetness as desired), and vanilla extract.
Blend on high speed for 30-40 seconds, or until the mixture is smooth and frothy.
Taste the blended coffee and adjust the sweetness or milk level if necessary, blending again briefly to combine.
Pour the Iced Coffee Whirl evenly into two serving glasses.
Top each glass with a generous dollop of whipped cream.
If desired, drizzle chocolate syrup over the whipped cream for a fancy finishing touch.
Serve immediately with a straw or a spoon, and enjoy your refreshing Iced Coffee Whirl!
