Who says you can’t have dessert for breakfast? This S’mores Iced Coffee is every coffee lover and sweet tooth’s dream come true.

Imagine starting your day with something that makes you feel like you’re having a small celebration. That’s exactly what a sip of this concoction does!

Ingredients

To whip up this delightful drink, you’ll need:

• Cold brew coffee (1 cup) – The smooth and strong base.
• Milk (1/2 cup) – Choose any kind you prefer; I like whole milk for creaminess.
• Chocolate syrup (2 tablespoons) – For that rich, chocolaty goodness.
• Marshmallow fluff (1 tablespoon) – It’s not s’mores without marshmallow!
• Crushed graham crackers (2 tablespoons) – Adds the quintessential s’mores crunch.
• Ice cubes – To keep everything cool.
• Whipped cream – For topping.
• Mini marshmallows – For garnish.
• Extra chocolate syrup & graham cracker crumbs – For the ultimate finishing touches.

How to Make S’mores Iced Coffee

1. Prepare Your Glass: Drizzle chocolate syrup around the inside of a tall glass for that lovely chocolate streaked look.
2. Mix Your Drink: In the same glass, combine the cold brew coffee, milk, and chocolate syrup. Stir well.
3. Add Ice: Fill the glass with ice cubes to chill the mixture.
4. Top It Off: Generously top with whipped cream, a spoonful of marshmallow fluff, and sprinkle with crushed graham crackers.
5. Garnish: Add a few mini marshmallows and drizzle more chocolate syrup and graham cracker crumbs over the top.
6. Serve Immediately: Grab a straw, dig in, and enjoy the bliss!

Helpful Tips

• Strong Coffee: Use a robust cold brew or espresso for a coffee-forward flavor. If it’s too light, the coffee can get lost among the other bold ingredients.
• Marshmallow Options: If you can’t find marshmallow fluff, try lightly toasting some marshmallows and then blending them into your drink for a smoky, authentic campfire flavor.

Substitutions/Variations

• Vegan/Dairy-Free: Use almond, coconut, or oat milk instead of dairy milk, and choose vegan whipped cream and marshmallow products.
• Less Sweet: Reduce the chocolate syrup and swap in unsweetened cocoa powder if you prefer less sweetness but still want the chocolate flavor.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I make this with hot coffee?

• Absolutely! If you prefer your coffee hot, simply skip the ice and serve it warm. The ingredients blend wonderfully either way.

What if I don’t have a cold brew?

• No problem! You can use any type of coffee that you enjoy. Just make sure it’s chilled if you’re going for an iced drink.

Storage Instructions

This drink is best enjoyed immediately after preparation. However, you can store the coffee mixture in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. Just add the toppings fresh when you’re ready to serve!
