Description

A quick and delicious coffee milkshake recipe that combines creamy ice cream with bold coffee flavors for a refreshing treat perfect for any coffee lover. Ready in just 5 minutes, this easy-to-make milkshake uses either instant coffee or espresso to deliver a rich and smooth coffee taste.


Ingredients

Milkshake Ingredients

  • 5 large scoops ice cream (vanilla or coffee flavored recommended)
  • 1 ½ cups milk (or non-dairy milk of choice)
  • 2-3 tablespoons powdered or granulated instant coffee
  • 2-3 shots espresso coffee (cooled, optional)


Instructions

  1. Prepare your coffee: Make your coffee base by brewing 2-3 shots of espresso or dissolving 2-3 tablespoons of instant coffee powder in 1 tablespoon of boiling water. Allow the coffee to cool completely in the refrigerator.
  2. Blend the milkshake: In a blender, combine the cooled coffee, 5 large scoops of ice cream, and 1 ½ cups of milk (dairy or non-dairy). Blend thoroughly until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and fully combined.
  3. Serve: Pour the coffee milkshake into two tall glasses immediately for the best texture and flavor. Enjoy your refreshing coffee treat!

Notes

  • Use vanilla ice cream for a classic flavor or coffee ice cream for a stronger coffee taste.
  • Adjust the coffee quantity to make the milkshake more or less caffeinated based on your preference.
  • Non-dairy milk like almond or oat milk works well for a dairy-free version.
  • Chilling your espresso or instant coffee before blending ensures the milkshake stays cold and creamy without melting the ice cream too quickly.
