Chocolate-Coffee Slushies

"A delicious cold drink for summertime or anytime. Drinks like this cost a fortune at a coffeehouse, but come out of your blender for pennies a serving. As easy as it is tasty."

ingredients

  • 12 -16 ounces cold coffee (regular, half-caf, or decaf)
  • 16 coffee ice cubes (freeze regular, half-caf, or decaf coffee in ordinary ice trays)
  • 6 tablespoons hot chocolate powder (a big jar or carton of mix is more economical than a box of envelopes)
  • 12 cup milk (use half and half or cream for a richer drink)
  • whipped cream (optional)
  • chocolate shavings (optional) or ground coffee (optional)
  • Kahlua (optional)

directions

  • Put cold coffee, coffee ice cubes, hot chocolate mix, and milk into your blender.
  • Use low to medium speed, or whatever speed is recommended for crushing ice, to blend until the coffee ice cubes are thoroughly crushed.
  • Pour into serving cups.
  • For an attractive presentation top with a dollop of whipped cream and lightly dust with cocoa powder, shaved chocolate, or ground coffee.
  • Adding a shot of Kahlua to each serving makes a nice drink for the adults on a warm evening.
  • Note -- I often have enough coffee left in the pot to make a tray of cubes but in the summer I'll make an extra pot of decaf the night before to use for this and for iced coffee.
  • Using sugar-free hot chocolate mix and low-fat milk cuts calories if desired.

  1. I give 5 stars because the one problem was my fault. This was great! I used 1/2 cup of Kahlua and 3/4 cup of milk. I tried to use the coffee ice cubes, but actually fried my blender trying to crush them! LOL I pour the ice cubes in half crushed anyway and it was great! I'll make this again for sure!
     
  2. Yummmm!!!!! Next time I will try it with the Kahlua. Thank you for this great recipe
