Iced Coffee: How to 'summer' your coffee beverages

 "Coffee is too hot to drink during the summer!" No, not really. Here's how you can change your favorite hot beverage into something more...cool. All you need is your Organo Gold coffee beverage, hot water, ice cubes, and a cocktail shaker, cup, or measuring cup. I personally use a measuring cup because it makes pouring from one cup to another less messy:

1 - Open the Organo Gold coffee beverage and pour it into a cup
2 - Add boiling hot water & mix
3 - Add a little extra sweetener or sugar (the ice will water down the beverage a little)
4 - Fill a cocktail shaker, cup or measuring cup with ice
5 - Add the hot coffee to the cocktail shaker or cup filled with ice. If you used a cocktail shaker, shake vigorously for about 5-10 seconds or until the coffee beverage is cool. If you used a cup or measuring cup (what I used), stir for about 2 or 3 seconds
6 -  Fill up your favorite coffee cup or travel mug with ice and pour your now cool drink over ice
7 - Add whip cream or whatever toppings (nutmeg, caramel, etc), on top.

It is important not to shake or stir your beverage too long or the coffee beverage will be watered down. Also, in order to activate the health benefits of the Organo Gold beverages, it is important to add hot water first, then cool the beverages.

As always, you can purchase all of your favorite coffee flavors via my online store at Cafe Afrodite.
