]]>Here are three ways to put your own unique twist on this delicious beverage and break the iced coffee monotony.
Adding chocolate to your iced coffee will turn it into a mocha-like treat. You can try adding a dose of chocolate syrup or even a blend of sugar and cocoa powder in order to turn it sweet and rich, almost like a caffeine-infused dessert!
The number of syrups that can be added to iced coffees are endless. As you probably know, various companies such as Monin produce flavors such as caramel, raspberry, and lavender which taste absolutely incredible when added (in moderation!) to your class of iced coffee.
If you’re looking to spice up the party, it’s definitely possible to add alcohol into your iced coffee to make it into a sort of cocktail! Great mixers for iced coffee include Bailey’s, orange liquor, or even Kahlua!

]]>Matcha powder is essentially a concentrated form of the leaves used to make green tea. It has excellent health benefits, including a chockload of healthy antioxidants.
It can be combined with ice cream and milk to make a delicious milkshake that tastes delicious and raises your body’s defenses.
Here’s how to make your own matcha milkshake.
Start off by pulling out your blender. You’ll want to be sure to plug it in and have it ready in order to blend your milkshake together.
The next step is to remove 200 g of vanilla bean ice cream from the container and place it inside of the blender. Your milkshake will blend easier if you leave it sitting out for a few minutes so that it softens slightly.
Next, add the milk, the matcha powder, and the honey to the blender. Place the lid on top of the container and blend on high for 20-30 seconds.
That’s it! Your matcha milkshake is ready to enjoy. That was easy, wasn’t it?

]]>So, what is a metal thermos, and what can it do?
Metal thermoses are a type of cold and heat-retaining beverage container. They have the capacity, in short, to keep cold drinks cold and hot drinks hot for long period of time. Many brands advertise that they’ll keep hot beverages warm for over 12 hours, and cold beverages warm for 24 hours.
They are a great option for people that live in climates that vary.
I often start off my day in a rush, and the cold mornings where I live make it tough for my coffee to stay warm on my walk to work. My metal thermos fixes this problem, however, keeping my coffee piping hot no matter what. It’s also a great option for other hot beverages such as tea.
Thermoses work the other way around, too. When I go to the beach on hot summer days, I often put my cold water or beer inside of the very same container! Despite the heat outside, my drinks always stay cold.
It’s both an environmentally-friendly option that reduces the need for disposable plastic bottles as well as a convenient life-saver.
Be sure to start using a metal thermos if you aren’t already!

]]>Coffee frappes, when bought at cafes and coffee shops, are often too expensive. Plus, why spend too much money to buy something when you can make an even better version at home?
Here’s a recipe for a delicious coffee frappe that’s easy to make in the comfort of your own kitchen.
First, start off by brewing a cup of medium-strong to strong coffee, depending on how bitter and strong you want the frappe to be.
Next, make the sugar syrup by adding 10 g of sugar to 25 ml of warm water and stirring.
Now, combine the coffee, sugar syrup, and ice. Add these ingredients to a blender and blend them together until they have made a frappe.
Taste the frappe. If you feel that it needs more sugar syrup, which it might if the coffee is especially strong, feel free to add more and blend.
Finally, serve in a glass with whipped cream and/or chocolate syrup topping, if you’d like. Enjoy!

]]>This drink originates from the island of Taiwan, where it began to go mainstream in the 1980s.
Boba tea combines traditional iced tea along with a few ingredients that differentiate it and make it unique and special.
The base of boba tea is always tea, which is typically cold, but it’s possible to choose several varieties of tea. The most common bases for the beverage are green, oolong, or black tea.
After this tea is added to the cup, the magic happens.
The most attention-grabbing ingredient in boba tea are tapioca balls (known as boba) which come in a huge variety of unique flavors. These balls are added to the tea, where they are consumed along with the beverage. They come in many flavors, normally fruits.
Some boba teas are also combined with milk, which gives the beverage a creamy and richer consistency.
After the milk and/or tapioca balls have been added to the tea base, the boba tea is ready to drink. It is traditionally sealed with cellophane, which allows the drink to be shaken up to combine the flavors.
A large straw is then added, which penetrates the cellophane, and your boba tea is ready to enjoy!

]]>If this is the case, the solution that you’re looking for could just be coffee ice cubes.
Coffee ice cubes are an ingenious addition to cold coffee beverages that allows them to retain their coffee essence. Normal ice cubes made of water often dilute and make the beverage unenjoyable and watery.
These little miracle blocks couldn’t be any simpler to make. All you have to do is brew coffee in your preferred way and then fill an ice cube tray with the coffee. Once it is ready, put the ice cube tray filled with coffee into the freezer and wait for them to freeze.
After the coffee ice cubes are frozen, you can use them to add to any of your favorite cold beverages. The most popular way to enjoy coffee ice cubes is simply inside of a glass of iced coffee.
Some people, however, are even more creative. Adding coffee ice cubes to a glass of milk allows the ice cubes to turn the milk into a coffee-y, rich beverage as they melt. Yum!
When the temperature rises, give coffee ice cubes a try as a way to maintain the essence of your favorite cold coffee drinks.
