Coffee - Cold coffee by Matilda D. - Recipia

When I want a quick cold coffee made at home, I use milk, sugar, Ness coffee, and ice cubes. There's no need for stovetop preparation or brewed coffee. The ingredients are mixed directly in a bowl, and the result can be served immediately as long as it's cold and frothy. The coffee has a simple taste of coffee with milk, sweetened according to the amount indicated in the recipe. Ice cubes are added after the milk, sugar, and instant coffee have been mixed, then blended a bit more before serving. Quick Info Total time: about 2-3 minutes Preparation time: 1-2 minutes for the first mixing, plus a little time for mixing the ice Cooking time: not required Servings: the number of servings is not specified; the quantity is served according to preference Difficulty: very easy Recipe type: cold coffee, milk coffee, quick drink Ingredients 400 ml milk 2 and a half tablespoons of sugar 3 tablespoons of Ness coffee 1 glass of ice cubes Instructions 1. Pour the milk into a bowl large enough for mixing. 2. Add the sugar and Ness coffee over the milk. 3. Blend for 1-2 minutes until the ingredients are well combined. It's important for the sugar and instant coffee to dissolve in the milk before adding the ice. 4. Add the ice cubes to the bowl. 5. Blend a little more, just enough to chill the drink well and mix it with the ice. 6. Serve the coffee immediately. In this recipe, the order of the ingredients is simple but worth keeping. The milk combines more easily with the sugar and Ness coffee before the ice cubes are added. If you add the ice at the beginning, the coffee may be harder to blend, and mixing becomes more cumbersome. Why I make this recipe often Cold coffee can be prepared in a few minutes and doesn't require brewed coffee, a pot, or cooling time. All the ingredients go into the same bowl, and the drink is ready immediately after blending. I also like that the recipe has few steps. The milk provides the base of the drink, the Ness coffee gives it an intense flavor, and the sugar balances the bitterness. The ice cubes chill the mixture without needing to wait. It's a practical option when you want cold milk coffee and have the ingredients on hand. Since it's served immediately, there isn't much to prepare or clean up afterward. Tips Use a bowl that can hold both the 400 ml of milk and the ice cubes. During blending, the liquid can move around, so a bowl that's too small isn't practical. Follow the first blending step for 1-2 minutes. This way, the Ness coffee and sugar mix better into the milk before adding the ice. After adding the ice cubes, blend just a little more, as per the recipe. The goal is to chill the drink and combine it, not to prepare it well in advance. Serve the coffee immediately after preparation. As the ice melts, the drink dilutes, and the coffee flavor becomes less intense. The amount of sugar in the recipe is 2 and a half tablespoons. If you're making the recipe for the first time, it's helpful to stick to the indicated amount, as that is the basic ratio of milk, coffee, and sugar. Substitutions The original recipe uses milk, sugar, and Ness coffee, without indicating substitutes. To keep the taste and preparation method as close to the original as possible, use these ingredients in the specified quantities. Ness coffee is added directly to the milk, not made separately into liquid coffee. Therefore, using instant coffee is important for this method. Variations The basic recipe can be kept exactly as it is: 400 ml of milk, 2 and a half tablespoons of sugar, 3 tablespoons of Ness coffee, and a glass of ice cubes. The source does not include other ingredients or flavor variations, so there's no need to add anything extra to prepare it. If you want to make a different amount, adjust all the ingredients proportionally, not just one. This way, the coffee with milk flavor and the level of sweetness remain close to the original recipe. However, for the quantity presented, it's easiest to follow the exact measurements. Serving ideas Serve the coffee immediately after the last blending, while the ice cubes are still present and the drink is cold. It can be offered as a cold drink on warm days or as a quick alternative to hot coffee. It requires no garnishes or additional ingredients. The flavor comes from the combination of milk, sugar, and Ness coffee. Frequently Asked Questions Can ground Ness coffee be used instead of instant coffee? No. The recipe uses Ness coffee, added directly to the milk and blended. Ground coffee won't dissolve in the same way and would change the texture of the drink. How long should the coffee be blended with the milk? The first step takes 1-2 minutes after the milk, sugar, and Ness coffee have been added to the bowl. After adding the ice cubes, blend a little more. When are the ice cubes added? The ice cubes are added after the milk, sugar, and coffee have been blended. Then blend a little more before serving. Can the coffee be saved for later? It's best consumed immediately after preparation. The ice melts over time, diluting the drink. The recipe is designed for immediate serving, not for long-term storage. Do I need to chill the milk beforehand? The recipe does not specify a separate chilling time. The milk is placed directly in the bowl, and the ice cubes are added after the first blending to chill the drink. Nutritional values The values below are estimates for the entire prepared quantity and may vary depending on the type of milk used and the product label. Ice cubes do not add calories. Calories: approximately 400-430 kcal Protein: approximately 13-14 g Carbohydrates: approximately 50-55 g Fats: approximately 13-14 g Most of the carbohydrates come from the added sugar and the lactose present in milk. The values may be lower if low-fat milk is used, but the exact amount depends on the chosen product. Ness coffee contributes few calories compared to the milk and sugar. Since the number of servings is not specified in the original recipe, the values cannot be evenly divided per glass. They represent an estimate for the entire 400 ml of milk, along with the sugar and coffee used. Storage and reheating Cold coffee does not store well. It's recommended to drink it immediately after preparation, as the ice begins to melt and dilutes the flavor. It's not a drink that can be reheated. If left for later, the texture and concentration change, and the ice cubes no longer have the same effect. For the best result, prepare the necessary amount and serve it right away.
