    Never go out for iced coffee again



    Ingredients
    • Freshly brewed coffee (let sit for 30 minutes)
    • Sugar or sweetener (granulated, raw, agave nectar, honey, stevia, etc.)
    • Creamer (milk, half and half, or soy milk)
    • Ice
    • [OPTIONAL] Cinnamon and/or 1/8 tsp vanilla 

    1. In a tall glass, first add the sugar, then a little bit of coffee, and mix until dissolved. 
    2. Add a decent amount of ice. Pour in more coffee, leaving about a half inch (more or less depending on how much creamer you want). Shake up your milk, half and half, or soy until frothy, and pour over the top. 
    3. [OPTIONAL] Enjoy the magic of seeing the milk combine with the coffee (that's my favorite part ^-^ I'm obviously easily amused). 
    4. Mix well
    5. Add a straw and enjoy your perfect cup of iced coffee.

    For prime results, I suggest investing in a French Press. (Pictured on the left)
    My mom and step dad have always gotten theirs from goodwill, but after a day of looking around local thrift stores, I decided to cave in and set out to Bed Bath & Beyond, and to my surprise I found a good size, pretty well-made French Press for only $10. Of course you would have to find a grinder as well (if you don't already have one!), but mostly every thrift store has one lying around, as most people don't find use in them anymore. I think I shall make the o magical French Press it's own post....will continue tomorrow afternoon!
