Iced Coffee

Good Morning coffee lovers!
It’s been kind of a long running joke that every time I post a picture of iced coffee (which is pretty often), it never fails that someone asks the recipe. And let’s be honest, when I see someone else with it, I am the first one to ask how they make it! Totally understandable, since good coffee is pretty much key to survival as a mom. And for the record, I never, ever get annoyed when someone asks because there is a good chance they just didn’t see it posted somewhere already. So, today, a blog post dedicated to all the iced coffee lovers & my favorite ways to make it! 🙂 
For the longest time, I have been brewing my coffee in the keurig (we have this one). I use either Starbucks Breakfast Blend or Donut Shop Original, something a little bit on the strong side but nothing flavored. I brew the coffee directly into a metal mug or cocktail shaker so I can put it right into the freezer. I use the medium cup setting, so it is a little bit stronger & let it sit in the freezer to cool off for about 5-10 minutes. Then, I pour it over ice & add half & half. Seriously, too easy right? 🙂 I prefer my coffee unsweetened, even a little on the bitter side, but you can always add sweetener, flavored creamers or even honey if you prefer.
Recently, I discovered cold brew coffee. I picked up a bottle of the Trader Joes brand & have been experimenting with it to find the perfect way to make it. I have become completely obsessed with it after finally mixing it right, definitely worth trying because it is just so easy & convenient! I think the trick is just adding enough water since it’s technically a concentrate, it all depends on how strong you like it. And for fun, a few cozy coffee picks, I am in love with those water bottles & they are perfect with a straw for cold coffee on the go!

Easter 2023 🐰 Would like to point out that I di Easter 2023 🐰 Would like to point out that I didn’t find them any cute matching pajamas this year but they took it upon themselves to find some in their closets & dressed accordingly. They also surprised US with an Easter egg hunt around the house with recycled Easter eggs filled with hand written notes and coupons to cash in for hugs, compliments, etc. How did we get here?! The girls could hardly sleep Saturday night bursting with excitement to host our friends & neighbors for donuts in the morning, they were up before the sun ready to start setting the tables & rolling dough. For everyone reading this with babies & toddlers, just know that all of those sweet traditions you are creating will make a home in their hearts, and one day they’ll be the ones making the magic for you. 🤍🤍🤍
