Iced Coffee with Cream
Refreshing cold coffee without milk! The cream is optional but recommended. Easy and vegan for those who wish to skip the cream (or replace it with coconut cream)
Servings 2
Ingredients
- 2 cups water
- 2 tablespoons instant coffee powder I used Bru
- 2-3 tablespoons (or to taste) granulated sugar I used soft brown
To serve
- 4-5 ice cubes crushed
- single cream (fresh cream) * see notes for a vegan substitute
Instructions
- First, brew the coffee - boil water and add the coffee powder and simmer for a couple of minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool completely. Then cover the pan and refrigerate for at least 45mins or till chilled
- When you are ready to serve, pour the coffee into a blender and blend until smooth (the colour will change from deep brown to soft brown). Add the sugar and ice cubes and blend again for 15-20 seconds.
- Pour into serving glasses and garnish with the single cream and serve immediately
Notes
For a vegan version of this drink you can substitute fresh cream with thick coconut cream (canned). Just mix to remove any lumps to achieve a thick pouring consistency
