I hope you're enjoying #BrunchWeek so far, I know I am! I am a huge fan of iced coffee, I drink it pretty much year round. I didn't think there would be a way to improve on it, but then I found this Tipsy Iced Coffee on the Taste of Home site.
First you start off with your favorite brand and flavor of coffee. I went with Door County Coffee & Tea Co's Highlander Grogg. I brewed four cups and then split it between two containers.
Since the coffee has notes of caramel and Irish Cream, Baileys was my first choice for alcohol and I added it to one.
I was able to use a metal spatula and chip it into pieces. This recipe is called iced coffee, but it's really more of a granita. To-may-to, to-mah-to, it's delicious no matter what you call it.
I used an ice cream scoop to load it into ball jars. You can do all of one kind or mix them both together.
I'd planned on making the whipped cream from scratch but it was just a crazy week and I had canned real dairy whipped cream so I went with it. I initially popped straws into them but ended up eating it with a spoon.
Be sure to swing by the other #BrunchWeek bloggers sites and see what they are sharing today using the links down below!
