Iced Coffee & Mystic Monks

So many have either emailed or commented on how happy they are with the Mystic Monk coffee they’ve ordered (see sidebar or banner above) that I thought I’d throw a few of their yummy iced coffee recipes up. Nothing is more refreshing on a hot day than cold, cold coffee with a bit of ice cream in it!

Frosty Mocha Cappuccino Recipe
The monks recommend the Rum Pecan coffee for this
In a blender combine:
1 cup Mystic Monk coffee, very strong, cold
2 cups vanilla fat-free ice cream
2 tablespoons chocolate-flavored syrup
Cover and blend on high speed until smooth.

Irish Creme Iced Coffee
My husband’s invented favorite
In a blender combine:
1 cup Mystic Monk Irish Creme Coffee
2-3 scoops vanilla ice cream
1/2 cup cold milk
1/4 cup Irish Creme liquor (optional)
Lots of Ice
Frappe until frothy. Whipped creme optional.

I haven’t tried this one, yet – our espresso maker broke a long time ago and we never felt the need to replace it, and I’ve never been one for flavored syrups in my coffee, but it sounds intriguing!

Iced Mystic Mint Mocha Recipe
You will need a blender and (ideally) an espresso maker for this.
Ingredients:

Directions:
1. Put handful of ice into blender
2. Add 2 scoops of mint choc chip ice cream
3. Add 1 teaspoon of chocolate mint flavoured coffee syrup

5. Blend for one minute
