Forget spending money on drive-through iced coffee that’s overpriced & loaded with calories – instead make it yourself at home – it’s easy. This recipe makes a large jug of delicious iced coffee to have on hand. Pour it over ice of a morning. Maybe add a dollop of whipped cream. And perhaps a drizzle of butterscotch sauce. Why the hell not!?

What you’ll need – some good, strong coffee; light cream; toffee coffee flavoring & a dash of sugar. Get this cold. Then pour over ice & add the fixin’s. That’s it!
I buy the Hill Bros flavored powered coffee from Walmart or online from Amazon. It’s about $3 a canister. It usually lasts two weeks. Also, if you prefer blended coffee, then make some coffee iced cubes & add those to the blender with homemade toffee coffee. You can use regular ice too but it dilutes the flavors. Cheers, Lovoni xo
