This is the basic recipe for McDonald's iced coffee. NOTE: We use Dunkin Donuts coffee beans (available at most supermarkets in the USA now) we ground at the store and brewed in a French press. If you can't find that, I recommend that you use a fairly mellow light roast. Millstone Kona Blend or Hawaiian blend are also great. You won't need a French press, but obviously, well made coffee couldn't hurt this. If you follow the directions and use quality ingredients, you'll wonder why you're paying $2.50 or more for iced coffee anywhere else. Feel free to double or quadruple the recipe if you have guests. Ingredients:
1 cup brewed coffee (give or take a tablespoon depending on the kind of ice you have, so have more than a cup ready) |
1/4 cup half-and-half cream |
2 1/2 tablespoons vanilla-flavored coffee syrup (we use torani) |
ice (enough to fill 22 ounce cup to top) |
Directions:
1. Brew coffee.
2. When coffee is done brewing, you may place it in the freezer for 15 minutes to cool it down a little so less ice will be melted.
3. Fill 22 ounce cup to top with ice.
4. Add syrup and half & half to cup.
5. Fill cup rest of way to top with coffee.
6. Mix carefully but thoroughly with spoon.
7. Add straw.
8. Enjoy!
