This iced coffee is a creamy, dreamy way to start your day or enjoy an afternoon pick-me-up. Don't let the name fool you; this isn't your typical butter coffee. This refreshing vegan version replaces butter with coconut oil, creating a velvety texture and a subtle tropical flavor that complements the rich coffee notes beautifully.
Imagine the coolness of iced coffee mingling with the smooth, almost buttery consistency of the coconut oil, all rounded out by the gentle sweetness of coconut milk. It's a delightful dance of textures and tastes that will awaken your senses. For an extra frosty treat, add ice cubes and blend until smooth.
The coconut milk adds body and a hint of natural sweetness, making it a satisfying and guilt-free indulgence. If you're short on time, brew your coffee the night before and chill it in the refrigerator. This allows the flavors to meld together, resulting in an even more delicious and complex beverage.
You can also use your favorite cold brew concentrate for a quicker preparation. Simply melt the coconut oil and blend it into the cold coffee until well combined. This iced vegan coffee recipe is a blank canvas for creativity.
Feel free to experiment with different flavorings to create your perfect cup. A touch of hazelnut or vanilla syrup can add a warm, comforting note. Or, for a more subtle flavor, try a splash of vanilla extract.
If you prefer a richer, creamier drink, try using almond or oat milk instead of coconut milk. You can also use flavored coffee grounds to infuse your coffee with your favorite flavors. Just be sure to check the labels for added sugars.
For a smoother, less acidic coffee, try using cold brew or nitro cold brew. Cold brew coffee is made by steeping coffee grounds in cold water for an extended period, resulting in a less bitter and more concentrated coffee. Feel free to customize the recipe to your liking, experimenting with different flavors and textures until you find your perfect combination.
You can also replace the coconut oil with vegan butter, or cocoa butter for a subtle chocolate flavor.
