My iced coffee has made me somewhat famous among my little group of friends. I'm not sure I can take all the credit, as I have merged a couple recipes to make it my own. I'll go ahead and share it here so you can enjoy it as well!
I got the idea from pioneer woman's iced coffee recipe but hers looked like too much work for me so I simplified it.
You will need:
Coffee
1 can sweetened condensed milk (local friends- cheaper at our walmart than our Kroger)
Half and Half
Brew some dark roast coffee- I suggest dark roast because I want it to be a strong coffee. I like to use French Roast. Depending on what I have on hand I use my Cuisinart Grind and Brew and either brew ground coffee or whole bean. If making a pitcher of iced coffee I make a whole pot (12 cups) and fill the grinder or filter to the top with coffee. Once brewed I add 1 can of sweetened condensed milk and a couple cups of half and half. Refrigerate. Serve over ice with a straw and I promise you'll go back for more! To avoid watered down coffee as your ice melts- freeze some of your left over coffee in your ice cube trays. (thanks pinterest)
Per Pioneer Woman's advice I do love to slurp it up from a mason jar with a straw! It's just so summery, you can't go wrong. Unless of course you drink it all day every day, because then you may gain a few. :)
