EVERYONE NEEDS A SILICONE ICE CUBE TRAY DESIGNATED FOR ICED COFFEE.
Every morning in high school, I would walk to school with a hot cup of Keurig coffee. I was hit hard with the “senioritis bug” my senior year and would arrive late every morning. I’d do that awkward half jog / half walk to school and spill my hot coffee everywhere.
Despite my awkward late appearance to first period with coffee stains, I was still obsessed with coffee… specifically, iced coffee. I still drank my hot k-cup coffee; I didn’t have time to go to Starbucks, let alone brush on mascara!!
On the rare days I wasn’t running late for first period, I would walk with my dad. He took the train to Chicago every morning for work, and the train station was on my way to school.
Anyway, one morning my dad and I were walking together and he told me about the train station’s coffee. They make their own coffee ice cubes. GENIUS!! We are a fam fueled by coffee. Similar to the Goldilocks bears, we like our coffee how we like our coffee; it must be just right… (i.e. iced)
I tried the coffee from the train station. Ever since, I’ve always made an effort to make myself coffee ice cubes, especially during the summertime.
Not only can you sip on an iced coffee, but you save $ and get more coffee ;P.
The best part? You don’t water down your coffee. Step aside Starbucks!
Here’s what you do:
Prepare a cup of coffee. Chill coffee for a few minutes ( to avoid melting the ice cube tray ). Pour coffee into the ice cube tray and freeze overnight. Prepare another cup of coffee and add coffee ice cubes.
Pro tip:
- Freeze your fave milk ( my fave is a coconut-almond blend 😜 )
Bottoms up!!
You can find your ice cube tray HERE !!
How do you like your coffee?!
