Making your own iced coffee at home is an effortless way to satisfy your caffeine fix without the extra calories and sugar found at coffee shops. This article will show you how to create a nutritious caramel iced coffee using any type of coffee (I prefer brewed or French press) along with sugar-free caramel syrup and ice. For an added creamy experience, add milk or cream but be aware that doing so increases calories and sugar consumption as well. For vegan options try substituting with Oat or Almond Milk!

As your first step, prepare the coffee. Any type of brewed or instant coffee will do, though for optimal results use a strong brew to ensure its full-flavored glory! I also suggest experimenting with adding double shots of espresso for an added twist!

Once your coffee is complete, move onto making caramel sauce. Combine all of your ingredients in a small pot over medium heat and stir constantly until they come to a boil, at which point cook it for approximately 5 to 6 minutes so it can thicken and take on its darker hue. Be wary though; as this mixture can easily burn if left alone without close supervision!

Once the caramel has been completed, set it aside to cool completely before adding it to your iced coffee drink. You may choose to garnish your drink with some whipped cream for aesthetic reasons or as part of a low calorie and fat plan – it isn’t essential!

Once your cup is empty, store any leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge to be reheated as necessary. Or if you have an ice cube tray handy, freeze the mixture so that you have frozen caramel iced coffee whenever on-the-go!

This delicious caramel iced coffee recipe is the perfect solution when you need an energy boost quickly! Making it at home takes only minutes and it is much healthier than buying from coffee shops! Not to mention it saves money. So give this treat a try, and be amazed at just how delectable it tastes!
