Today and yesterday have been hot ones here in St Louis, up into the 90’s – phew!
So I decided to make some iced coffee and add in some flavour.
I bought some cinnamon nibs from Penzey’s Spices in Maplewood and I mixed them into the ground coffee before brewing. I didn’t grind up the nibs, just left them whole.
To make the orange coffee, I added fresh zest to the ground coffee. I brewed both coffees and left them to cool.
To ensure coffee all the way to the bottom of the glass rather than watery ice cubes, I make coffee ice cubes.
Add milk and sugar if you like. I do. If you like black coffee, I would pour over a splash of fresh coffee to get the ice cubes melted a little bit, so you at least have something to drink!
Do you like iced coffee? Iced tea? Do you add any extras?
I love to add an instant hot chocolate mix into my iced coffee…
Ohhh, good idea!
I’m not a big fan of cold coffee but these recipes sound divine! I’m going to have to try them. Thanks for the tips.
