as most of you know by now I'm pretty
much 100% caffeine powered so come
summer my love for Java meets my love
for cold refreshing drinks what you end
up with is a video about my five
favorite iced coffee hats we're gonna
get started today with the best way to
add milk and sugar to an iced coffee
it's actually sweetened condensed milk
it's and gooey and rich and what it does
is add a ton of sweetness and creaminess
to your coffee
without a whole lot of effort I like to
just pour it into my coffee over ice and
give it all a good shake until it's
completely combined voila iced coffee is
served and trust me it is worth a try
you can also do this with hot coffee as
well another great tip if you're looking
to add sweetness without any additional
milk or cream is to make something
called simple syrup to make simple syrup
it's really a simple I'm going to say
simple about 700 more times here so
everyone bear with me to make your
simple syrup you were simply going to
combine one part sugar and one part
water on the stove I'm going to heat
that mixture up whisking it constantly
until all of the sugar has dissolved to
make your simple syrup even more
delicious you can add all sorts of
flavors I like infusing it with some
cinnamon or some vanilla or even some
coconut then all you have to do is
strain out the solid what you end up
with is a beautifully flavored simple
syrup that can sweeten pretty much any
kind of drink but I think of course is
best with iced coffee for my next hack
I'm going to show you what I call an
inside-out iced coffee in this case
instead of using traditional ice cubes
we're actually going to make ice cubes
out of coffee and a little bit of
chocolate sauce we're going to whisk
these two together pour them into an ice
tray and then into the freezer they go
until they're totally solid
when it's time for coffee
you simply transfer your cubes to a
glass and top them with the milk in this
case what you end up with is an iced
mocha latte that is totally delicious
and super simple to make if you didn't
want to use chocolate in this recipe you
could also do this with some caramel
sauce that would be amazing if you're
looking for an iced coffee that's a
little more on the decadent side go
ahead and try my vanilla iced coffee
which basically is a combination of a
whole lot of vanilla ice cream and some
hot coffee poured over it oh yeah yeah I
know you want one right for my final
trick today I'm going to show you how to
sneak your coffee into your breakfast
smoothie and that is a good way to start
the day in my blender I'm combining some
ice some coffee a banana some yogurt and
some chocolate protein powder
I'm going to blend this all up and
basically what you end up with is a
breakfast of champions with a little
Java kick
