NOM NOM How To: Quick Iced Coffee

Ever made too much coffee and still have half a pot at the end of the day? Instead of throwing it out, try it Iced for a nice change!

1. Grab a mug big enough for 1-2 cups of coffee and microwave until hot, but not scalding.
2. In another mug (glass, sippy cup, whatever!) fill with ice 3/4 full. Add sugar.
3. Pour the coffee into the ice glass, and stir until all the sugar is dissolved. Fill with milk to the top, or to your taste. Stir again, and add more ice if you prefer.

Easy as 1-2-3! It's crucial to warm the coffee up since the sugar needs to dissolve...crunchy iced coffee doesn't work well.

TIP #1:
If your making a pitcher, try melting the sugar with equal parts water (EX: 1/2 C water/sugar) in a pot to make a syrup...then you can skip warming up the coffee.

TIP #2:
Try a dash of vanilla extract for a flavor kick!
