Recipe: Thai Iced Coffee

subtitle: Starbucks, drink your heart out!

So here it is, Jason's famous iced coffee recipe -- ripped off by myself (which has also been ripped off of every Thai restaurant in the world).

Here's what you need:

  • Ice
  • Coffee (double shot/two parts)
  • 2 Tbsp. (one serving/one part) Sweetened Condensed Milk (full-fat, low-fat, fat-free, etc.)

Optional: Hammer & sandwich bag (for crushing ice if you like it that way and don't have a crushed ice ice-maker)

Steps:

  1. If you want crushed ice and don't have a crusher built into your refridgerator, you can simply load a baggie with some ice and smash it with a hammer. If your hammer is nasty you may find it best to double bag. I've found that a full tray of ice, crushed, will get me 2-3 servings, depending on how big of a glass I use.

  2. Fill your glass 2/3 with ice.

  3. Prepare your coffee maker however you like with whatever coffee you like. I have an espresso/cappuccino maker, so I like to do a double shot. Whatever you do, it's probably better STRONG.

  4. Add the coffee to the glass. You don't need to use a lot of coffee because the ice will melt when you add it.

  5. Add one serving of sweetened condensed milk.

  6. Stir.

  7. Profit.

BTW, you can vary any of the ingredients to your taste of course, but personally I'm in it more for the caffeine than the taste. Drinking it cold with lots of sweets is the best way IMHO. Enjoy!
