Homemade Iced Vanilla Coffee

It has been a long day of cleaning, doing dishes (yes, I'm still without a working dishwasher), and weeding. Because the front yard is looking a tad more inviting, and because I deserve a break every now and then, I decided to enjoy a quiet moment or two on the front porch with some homemade iced coffee and my book.  Plus, I felt it in my heart that Husband needed a cold one, as he's been working up in the shop sawing and welding or doing whatever he's up to that requires jeans with grease on them and dirt smudges on his face.  Yes, quite attractive.

Iced Coffee

4 cups fresh brewed coffee

1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

1/4 cup white sugar

1/4 cup boiling water

3 cups ice

1/2 cup cream ( I used 1% milk today)

Directions

Refrigerate coffee until cool, about 30 minutes. Stir vanilla extract and sugar in the boiling water until dissolved. Refrigerate sugar mixture until cool, about 30 minutes. Divide the ice and chilled coffee evenly between the four glasses. Stir in cream and sugar mixture, to taste.

Mmm Hmm.

Until next time,
