Ingredients
Ingredients
- 2 tbsp caramel simple syrup (or to taste)
- 8 oz coffee (cold brew or cold coffee)
- 1 cup ice
- 2 tbsp half and half (or favorite creamer)
Instructions
- Add Caramel Syrup: In a tall glass, drizzle 2 tablespoons of caramel simple syrup down the sides for a visually appealing effect and flavor base.
- Pour Coffee: Add 8 ounces of cold brew or cold coffee into the glass over the caramel syrup.
- Add Ice: Fill the glass with 1 cup of ice or more to keep the drink chilled and refreshing.
- Add Creamer: Pour in 2 tablespoons of half and half or your preferred creamer to add creaminess.
- Stir and Serve: Stir the mixture well, taste to adjust sweetness if needed, and enjoy your homemade caramel iced coffee.
Notes
- You can adjust the amount of caramel syrup depending on your preferred level of sweetness.
- Use your favorite creamer or milk alternative if you want to customize flavor or make it dairy-free.
- Cold brew coffee generally makes a smoother iced coffee, but regular brewed coffee cooled down works well too.
- For a stronger coffee flavor, use less ice or add an extra shot of espresso.
