Notes

Please note that the nutrition calculated is for 1 recipe of Classic Coffee.

Consistency: These cold coffee recipes are meant to be indulgent – thicker, creamier, sweeter than a simple cold coffee. We want a frappe-like consistency - a blended ice beverage where the ice is kept coarse and chunky for that thick texture common to cafe drinks.
Ice: The key to getting that frappe-like texture is using ice in the recipe. The ice breaks down into smaller fragments while blending with the rest of the ingredients. The key to achieving this is keeping an eye on the cold coffee as it blends! We do not want to keep blending it into a smooth mixture, turn off the blender with everything is just mixed together.
Coffee: I have added only 2 teaspoons of instant coffee powder as I do not like my coffee too strong. You can increase or decrease this according to your liking. You can also sub coffee powder with coffee decoction!
Sugar: I have added only 1 tablespoon of Sugar as I do not like my coffee too sweet. You can increase or decrease this according to your liking. You can sub sugar with your choice of sweetener like jaggery or coconut sugar!
Serving: Make sure to serve this immediately, so that the ice does not melt and dilute the drink. This drink can not be made ahead in time, but it comes together instantly so plan accordingly.
Additions: You can even modify this recipe with your favourite add ons! Add your favourite toppings using the Classic Cold Coffee as the base recipe.
Pro Tip: Replace sugar with 2 tablespoons of condensed milk to give it a creamy Vietnamese cold coffee twist!
