This is one of those basic recipes you can stretch to almost infinite variety. Use your darkest French roast or your favorite flavored coffee. Add syrups, like raspberry or caramel. Iced coffee with chocolate syrup is fabulous! Serve it with a special biscotti like the one almostgotit makes with dried cranberries and pistachios. One taste of this, and your family and friends will adore you! SAM

2 ounces flavored syrup, optional
Ice cubes
Confectioner’s sugar
Sweetened whipped cream
Combine coffee and syrup and pour into 2 iced-tea glasses filled with ice cubes. Serve with confectioner’s sugar and/or whipped cream.

Perfect use for the wonderful coffee that still lingers in the bottom of the pot after everyone’s had their fill in the morning (we always make ours nice and strong!) — save it in the fridge to make this late-afternoon treat. Thanks for sharing!
What a great idea! Thanks.
