McDonald’s Caramel Iced Coffee – Medium, Small, Large

Here’s your guide to crafting a homemade Caramel Iced Coffee that rivals the McDonald’s classic:

Ingredients:

Coffee:

• 1/2 cup coarsely ground coffee beans (around 60g)
• 4 cups cold water

Caramel Bliss:

• 1/4 cup caramel sauce (homemade or store-bought)
• 1/4 cup milk (2% or whole for best results)
• 1/4 cup ice cubes (optional)

Optional extras:

• Whipped cream
• Caramel drizzle
• Vanilla extract
• Cinnamon

Equipment:

• Coffee maker: French press, pour-over cone, AeroPress, or regular drip coffee maker
• Large pitcher or carafe: Holds at least 4 cups of brewed coffee and ice
• Iced coffee glasses: Tall glasses with lids for an extra-cold experience

Instructions:

1. Brew the coffee: Use your preferred method, aiming for a strong brew that can stand up to dilution from ice and milk.
2. Chill the coffee: Let the coffee cool slightly at room temperature, then transfer it to the carafe and add ice cubes (if using). Stir well to chill.
3. Warm the caramel sauce (optional): For a smooth, pourable caramel drizzle, gently heat the caramel sauce in a microwave or small saucepan until slightly warm.
4. Create the caramel base: Combine milk, caramel sauce, and any optional flavorings in a container, like a mason jar or small pitcher. Shake or stir well until the caramel is fully incorporated.
5. Assemble your masterpiece: Pour the chilled coffee into your iced coffee glasses. Add the desired amount of caramel mixture, creating a beautiful swirl or layer to your liking. Top with additional ice, a dollop of whipped cream, and a drizzle of caramel sauce for that extra McDonald’s-inspired touch.
6. Sit back, sip, and savor: Enjoy your delicious homemade Caramel Iced Coffee, a sweet escape from the Canadian sunshine in every cold, creamy gulp.

Tips:

• Use fresh, cold water for the best coffee flavor.
• Pre-chill your carafe or pitcher and glasses for an extra-cold coffee.
• For a dairy-free alternative, use plant-based milk like almond or oat milk.
• Adjust the amount of ice, coffee, milk, and caramel sauce to your desired strength and sweetness.
• Get creative! Experiment with different caramel sauces, flavored syrups, or spices to find your perfect flavor combination.
