Easy Iced Coffee
 
I missed my McDonald's Iced Coffees so I tweaked a recipe I found to make my own lower carb version.

2 tsp instant coffee
heavy cream
water
SF Davinci Syrup or dash of vanilla and Splenda/liquid sweetener
ice


I use a 20 oz shaker bottle. Put 2 tsp instant coffee and sweetener in a few tablespoons of warm water and shake. Add a tablespoon or two of cream and then ice cubes and water - shake again.

I really didn't measure out the ingredients exactly, you can add the sweetener and cream to your own taste.

Going to make this tonight. I'm getting tired of hot coffee now that it's over 100 degrees every day.

Thanks!

I am so addicted to iced coffee. I make it at home on a regular basis. It is so yummy! Glad to know there are others like me out there. LOL :)

Thanks for posting this recipe, I am afraid of mcdonalds iced coffee, it seems like even when I ask for nothing but cream, it tastes like its got alittle sugary taste to it.

Another option for Iced Coffee
 
I am a big lover of iced coffee as well. What I do that's a little different, is brew a pot of coffee. I make it strong and sometimes use a flavored coffee like Hazelnut or Vanilla. I let it cool and put it in a plastic container in the fridge. I use Monin Sugar Free Syrup. My favorite lately is the White Chocolate flavor. I actually like it better than Da Vinci or Torriani because it is thicker, and it seems to taste better to me. I use syrup to taste, heavy whipping cream and fill with chilled coffee and whip it up with my wand blender. Add Ice. I also sometimes use a martini shaker and shake with the ice. :thup:

I love iced coffee. I make it from leftover brewed coffee from the morning. I make sure DH leaves me some!
