Cold brew coffee is one of the fastest growing beverage trends globally. Cold brew coffee is more and more popular among coffee drinkers as it’s refreshing.
Ingredients
- Almond Milk Ice Cubes
- 480 ml almond milk
- 50ml vanilla syrup
- Cold Brew Coffee
- Date Caramel
- 15 dates
- 3-6 Tbsp hot water
Frapuccino
- 16 almond milk ice cubes
- 2 cups (480 ml) cold brew coffee
- 3-5 Tbsp date caramel
The night before, pour almond milk into a icecube tray and freeze. You should have about 16 ice cubes.
Make date caramel by adding 15-20 dates to a food processor or blender (in my experience, a food processor works best to get a creamy texture without much water).
Pulse/mix on low until small bits remain, then stream in hot water while the blender is on until a paste is made. You will need to scrape the down sides and encourage it along periodically. Only add enough water to form a paste – too much and it will be too liquidy. Set aside.
To make 2 frappuccinos, add all 16 ice cubes and 2 cups (480 ml) cold brew coffee to a blender and blend on high until puréed and smooth.
Add date caramel 1 Tbsp at a time and blend. Taste and adjust flavor as dneeded, adding more date caramel to sweeten. I found 3 or 4 Tbsp to be the perfect amount.
NOTE: you will have leftover date caramel, which can be stored covered in the refrigerator for 1-2 weeks.
Divide between two tall serving glasses and top with whipped cream (optional). Best when fresh, though leftovers can be kept in the refrigerator for a few hours, or in the freezer for a few days.
