As much as I adore getting coffee at a local coffee shop, there’s something so satisfying about brewing my own at home. One of the best things about making my own coffee is saving a little extra to make my decadent Adult Iced Coffee later in the afternoon. With just the right amount of flavored vodka, it’s the perfect indulgent treat for a relaxing weekend. Or, you know, a Wednesday.
If you’re thinking, yes I have iced coffee at Starbucks all the time, think again my friends! This isn’t your typical coffee shop faire. This easy iced coffee recipe is rich, boozy and so simple to make, you’ll want to have some cold coffee on hand all the time. Use it for Thai Iced Coffee or Iced Coffee Soda too!
HOW TO MAKE ICED COFFEE:
Making your own iced coffee is super simple! I use a Ninja that has a special setting for strongly brewed coffee over ice. But you can just brew your coffee as normal and let it cool completely. Or check your grocery store for some great tasting cold brewed options.
WHAT DO I NEED TO MAKE ADULT ICED COFFEE?
This tempting treat comes together in just FOUR ingredients! Here we go:
- First, you need a big batch of your iced coffee. (For one serving, use about three quarters of a cup.)
- Next, a couple ounces of flavored vodka. (I used an amaretto for this recipe, but cake flavored or caramel flavored vodka would be scrumptious as well.)
- Then, two cups of ice.
- Finally, sweetened coffee creamer to taste. If it’s not sweet enough you could add a bit of my Simple Syrup until it’s to your liking. But steer clear of using regular granulated sugar, as it won’t dissolve very well in the cold coffee.
HOW TO MAKE ADULT ICED COFFEE:
Combine cold coffee, vodka and ice in a tall glass. Mix together then add the sweetened coffee creamer. Cheers!
