Iced Coffee Au Lait​

Recipe Description

This is a great way to enjoy your caffeine when the temps get too high. I make a pitcher of it and drink it through the week.​

Preparation Steps:

I use an immersion blender and a pitcher. If you don't have an immersion blender, use a large bowl and a whisk. I like my coffee on the strong side, but if this is too strong for you, just add more milk until it's the strength you like!​

Level of Difficulty:

Easy​

Time Needed:

10 minutes​

Ingredients:

1/3 cup instant coffee granules
1/2 cup boiling water
1 14 oz can sweetened condensed milk
2 cups cold water
2 cups milk or 2 cups chocolate milk, lowfat is fine​

Serves:

​

Directions:

Mix together the instant coffee and the boiling water.
Blend/whisk in the condensed milk until combined.
Pour into a pitcher if you started with a bowl.
Add the water and the milk/chocolate milk.
Chill for a couple of hours before serving.
Pour over ice, if you wish.​

Sounds good, although sweetened condensed milk can really pack the calories. For those of you counting calories: Calories in Condensed Milk - Nutrition Facts

I'd maybe cut that in half or skip it altogether.

No question, it's got a lot of calories. I am sure you could add another cup or so of milk and then sweeten to taste with splenda or something similar. It does add a bit of body to the final beverage.
