  • 2-3 tablespoons Caramel Syrup
  • 1/2 cup Milk (dairy or non-dairy)
  • 1 cup Ice Cubes

Brew the Coffee

Start by brewing a cup of strong coffee. You can use your preferred method, such as a drip machine, French press, or espresso maker. Let the coffee cool completely. This is crucial to prevent the ice from melting too quickly.

Combine Ingredients

In a tall glass, add the caramel syrup. Pour the cooled coffee over the syrup. Stir well to combine the caramel and coffee.

Add Milk and Ice

Pour in the milk of your choice. Dairy or non-dairy alternatives like almond, soy, or oat milk work well. Add a generous amount of ice cubes to fill the glass.

Garnish (Optional)

If desired, top with whipped cream and a drizzle of caramel syrup for an extra touch of indulgence. Serve immediately and enjoy your delicious Caramel Iced Coffee!

FAQ

  • Can I use instant coffee?

    Yes, you can use instant coffee. Just dissolve it in a small amount of hot water and then let it cool completely before using.
  • Can I make this ahead of time?

    It is best to make this fresh, as the ice will melt over time. However, you can brew the coffee and combine it with the caramel syrup in advance. Store it in the refrigerator until you are ready to add the milk and ice.
  • What if I don't have caramel syrup?

    You can use other flavored syrups like vanilla or chocolate. You can also make your own caramel sauce by melting sugar with a little water and butter.
