Ingredients and Equipment
- 1 cup strong brewed coffee (cooled)
- ½ cup milk (whole or your choice)
- 2 tbsp white chocolate chips
- 2 tbsp caramel sauce (+ extra for drizzling)
- 1 tbsp sugar (optional)
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cup ice cubes
- Whipped cream (for topping)
- Small saucepan
- Whisk
- Bowl that won’t melt
- Coffee mug or measuring cup
- Tall glass
- Spoon for stirring
Instructions
- Put the white chocolate chips and 2 tablespoons of milk in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir them constantly until they are smooth. Remove from heat.
- In a coffee mug or measuring cup, mix together the cooled coffee, caramel sauce, sugar (if using), and vanilla extract until everything is well mixed.
- Pour the melted white chocolate mixture into the coffee mixture, stirring well. Then add the remaining ½ cup of milk and stir again.
- Put ice cubes in a tall glass, then pour the coffee mixture over the ice.
- Add whipped cream and a lot of extra caramel sauce on top.
Tips and Variations
- Brew your coffee ahead of time – Let it cool completely to prevent a watered-down drink.
- Use high-quality caramel – A thick, rich caramel sauce makes a big difference in flavor.
- Change the sweetness: Add more sugar or caramel if you want it sweeter; if you don’t, take some away.
- Chill your glass. A cold glass keeps your iced coffee from melting too quickly.
- For a frappe vibe, mix everything together with ice in a blender to make it thicker.
- If you don’t want to use dairy, you can use almond, oat, or coconut milk.
- No sugar: Use sugar-free caramel and sweeteners instead for a lighter drink.
- Stronger coffee: Use cold brew instead of regular coffee for a bolder flavor.
- Best enjoyed fresh, but you can store the coffee mixture (before adding ice) in the fridge for up to 2 days.
- Make a batch and keep it chilled for quick iced coffee anytime!
- Freeze leftover coffee in ice cube trays to use later without watering down your drink.
