Ingredients
- 1-2 tablespoons granulated sugar ($0.03)
- 1 ½ cups brewed coffee, hot or cold ($0.08)
- ¼ teaspoon peppermint extract ($0.01)
- 2 cups ice cubes ($0.00)
- ½ cup milk ($0.10)
Garnish
- whipped cream
Instructions
- Sweeten coffee. Add sugar to the bottom of a tall glass. Pour in coffee and stir until the sugar dissolves. Stir in peppermint extract.
- Add ice. Fill the glass with ice, leaving about 1 ½ to 2 inches of space at the top.
- Add milk. Pour in milk and stir well to combine.
- Finish. Top with whipped cream if using. Serve immediately.
Notes
- Flavor Variations. Add 1 teaspoon vanilla for extra depth. Turn it into an iced peppermint mocha with cocoa powder or chocolate syrup.
- Dairy-Free. Almond or oat milk works well. Coconut whipped cream makes a great topping.
- Caffeine Boost. Swap brewed coffee for 1 to 2 shots of espresso or add an extra shot.
- Taste Adjustment. Adjust sweetness, milk, or peppermint to taste. Use peppermint extract sparingly, as a little goes a long way.
