Simple Iced Mocha Cappuccino

The iced mocha cappuccino for the poor volunteer in us all.

So basically I had some coffee that I hadn't finished this morning. Whups. I kinda stared at it, not feeling very inspired to throw it in the microwave.
I peered into the fridge, and realized that I could make a killer iced coffee.
Which ended up turning into a super chocolatey, delicious iced cappuccino. It turned out well, so well that I felt it necessary to share it with the world! :)

I have been feeling pretty sick today, so this cappuccino is such a good pick-me-up. Might take it to go relax on the hammock and read a book in a few minutes. Mmm.

What you need:

  • Coffee (mine was strong, french-pressed coffee. But it was a few hours old. You might want to make a fresh batch, don't follow my example)
  • Almond milk (in this case we only have almond coconut milk in the fridge. The coconut is pretty fantastic, I highly recommend feeling fancy and buying this stuff. Mmm mm.)
  • Nutella (we have faker nutella in the fridge. You get the idea, a delicious chocolate spread)
  • Whipped cream (optional, I added it because I was really craving something super sugary. This is definitely not required)
  • Ice


Combine all of these delicious things in the blender until you get the consistency you want. I added almost half of the ice cube tray to mine. I like mine super slushy.
Pour it into a mason jar, if you want to really get the poor volunteer vibes going.

And voila! The perfect drink for a hot, October day.

...

Oh Texas. Only here would I be able to state that and not be joking. :)
