Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Brewed strong coffee
- 0.5 cups French vanilla creamer
- 8 whole Fresh mint leaves
- 1 cup Ice cubes
- 2 teaspoons Granulated sugar
- 0.25 cups Whipped cream
- 1 whole Fresh mint sprig
Instructions
Brew 1.5 cups of strong coffee and allow it to cool to room temperature. For faster cooling, transfer it to a refrigerator for 10-15 minutes.
In a small mixing bowl, lightly bruise 6 of the 8 mint leaves using the back of a spoon to release their flavor. Set aside.
In a blender, combine the cooled coffee, French vanilla creamer, 6 bruised mint leaves, ice cubes, and granulated sugar. Blend on high for about 20-30 seconds until the mixture is frothy and well-combined.
Strain the blended coffee mixture through a fine sieve into a pitcher to remove mint leaf pieces and achieve a smooth texture.
Pour the mint French vanilla coffee mixture into two serving glasses, filling each about 3/4 full.
Top each glass with a generous dollop of whipped cream for added creaminess.
Garnish with the reserved fresh mint leaves or a sprig of mint, and serve immediately with a straw or spoon for stirring.
