Frugal Summer Coffee

  4.2 – 4 reviews  

I developed my own iced coffee after becoming tired of paying exorbitant prices for them, and I keep it on hand in the refrigerator for summer mornings when I want coffee but not HOT coffee. Keep the refrigerator stocked.

Easy and yummy. Don’t really like the almond extract, so i used half. Subbed with whole milk. Also if u ever have extra coffee, (instead of dumping it out) pour it into an ice tray and freeze. That way your coffee won’t dilute as ice cubes melt! 🙂

I liked this! The almond flavoring really comes through, making it taste like a flavored coffeehouse coffee. I used stevia rather than sugar and saved a few calories. This is a good recipe for left-over coffee from the pot.

Since the recipe calls for almond extract I decided to use almond milk instead of skim milk. I also substituted Truvia for the sugar. It was tasty.
