Easy Coffee Shake
Here’s another great cold coffee recipe. This one is for an easy coffee shake.
Coffee Milk Shake
- 2 c Milk
- 2 tb Sugar
- 2 ts Instant coffee
- 3 tb Vanilla ice cream
- Strong coffee; cold
Add ingredients in blender in order given and mix at high speed for 5 minutes or until blended. Pour into frosted glass.
I usually use coffee leftover from the morning for this quick afternoon pick-me-up. You can easily mix it up by using different types of ice cream for different flavor. Using chocolate ice cream for example gives it more of a mocha type of flavor. It’s also really good with cookies and cream or strawberry ice cream.
If you want to get fancy you could top your shake with a little whipped cream and some chocolate shavings.

By the way, if you don’t want to get your blender out, just scoop some ice cream into a tall glass, pour cold coffee over it and add a little sweetener to taste and top it with whipped cream. Yum!
