Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Strong brewed coffee (chilled or cooled to room temperature)
- 3 scoops Vanilla ice cream
- 2 tablespoons Chocolate syrup
- 0.5 cups Whipped cream
- 1 cup Crushed ice
- 1 tablespoon Chocolate shavings or sprinkles (optional, for garnish)
Instructions
Brew 1.5 cups of strong coffee and allow it to cool to room temperature, or refrigerate it until chilled.
In a tall glass, add 1 cup of crushed ice.
Drizzle 1 tablespoon of chocolate syrup over the crushed ice for a rich chocolaty base.
Slowly pour the chilled coffee into the glass, filling it about 3/4 of the way to leave room for the ice cream.
Carefully add 3 scoops of vanilla ice cream on top of the coffee, ensuring the scoops are evenly spaced in the glass.
Top the float with 1/2 cup of whipped cream, creating a fluffy layer over the ice cream.
Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of chocolate syrup over the whipped cream as a finishing touch.
Optional: Sprinkle chocolate shavings or sprinkles on top for added decoration and flavor.
Serve immediately with a straw and a spoon, and enjoy your homemade Starbucks Java Float!
