Iced Vanilla Raspberry Espresso Recipe

Wednesday, June 23rd, 2010

The usual hot espresso coffee mornings just don’t seem desirable when Summer is here and the days are long and hot. Here is the summer scene. We want to stay up later to enjoy the summer evenings and we wake up tired. Although I do not recommend skimping on your necessary sleep, I do have a fun solution to help get you up and going. You need something to look forward to, an iced coffee beverage, a tasty caffeinated treat. After you try this recipe you will be jumping up out of bed and running to the kitchen for your morning pick-me-up, Iced Vanilla Raspberry Espresso treat. This recipe is gently sweet with a powerful espresso coffee punch.

Ingredients:

Torani Vanilla Syrup

Torani Raspberry Syrup

Espresso shots

Milk

Ice

Directions:

In a chilled stainless steel milk frothing pitcher add 4 pumps of vanilla syrup and 1 pump of raspberry syrup.

Pull two shots of espresso into the frothing pitcher.

Add 6 ounces of cold milk to the pitcher. This will cool down the hot espresso.

Swirl all ingredients to cool them down.

Add all cooled ingredients to a cup filled with 2 cups of ice cubes. (If the mixture is too warm, it may melt the ice cubes quickly and water down your beverage. You don’t want this, so make sure the ingredients are cool before adding them to the ice.)

Lower the calories of this recipe using Sugar Free Vanilla and Sugar Free Raspberry syrups. You may also use skim milk or 2 percent milk.

This recipe is quick if you have an automatic espresso machine. I make it in 2 minutes and I am out the door on my way. You can purchase this drink at the local coffee barista for around $4 after driving there and waiting in line, an investment of an additional 20-30 minutes total. Another advantage of the new automatic espresso machines is the taller cup clearance which makes it easier to make beverages using tall mugs or disposable cups.

I have hundreds of recipes like this one. My favorite recipes are quick and iced. Even in the winter time I love an iced coffee beverage. On those hot summer days, when you know you will be up late, make yourself an espresso beverage to get you through the long evening. Or, serve an iced espresso beverage topped with whipped cream as a quick easy dessert. All of my recipes are made quickly and simply using an automatic espresso machine, my secret to convenience and money saving espresso enjoyment.

Coffee is enjoyed by countless people on a daily basis. In fact, statistics have shown that fifty percent of the population in the United States of America that are at least eighteen years of age consume coffee or coffee drinks every single day. Also, independently owned coffee shops in the United States of America estimate a whopping twelve billion dollars in sales on an annual basis. Who does not love coffee?

Well, as most people are aware of, coffee contains a substantial amount of caffeine. Many coffee drinkers drink coffee not just for the great taste, but also for that extra caffeinated kick. For some, coffee is a great way to start the day. In fact, many people drink coffee throughout the day to enjoy a great tasting beverage that also keeps you up and awake.

Besides the traditional cup of coffee, there are numerous coffee drinks that are very tasty and delicious. Americano, Cappuccino, Latte, Mocha, Espresso. All of these coffee drinks mentioned are great! There also exist coffee dessert drinks, the ultimate tasty upper that combines the great taste of coffee with caffeine and sugar and your favorite topping in the form of a blended shake-type drink.

Now, you could get these great dessert coffee drinks either at your typical independent coffee shop or your favorite popular franchise coffee shop for a few bucks. But would not it be great if you could make these great coffee dessert drinks in the comfort of your own home?

Well, this is the part of the article that you are going to absolutely love because we are going to give you a great recipe for a coffee shake that you can make in your own kitchen at home!

The Ingredients

In order to make the Great Coffee Shake, you will need some vanilla ice cream, ice cubes, and either espresso or regular coffee. As an added bonus, you may also want to include your favorite flavor of syrup topping such as chocolate or caramel, and some whipped cream for a final topping.

The Appliances

The kitchen appliances and equipment that you will need are a coffee maker or an espresso machine, a blender, and some cups and eating utensils for the final product.

The Directions

This recipe makes two servings so if you need to make a bigger batch, just multiply the amounts of ingredients according to how many extra servings you will need to make.

First, make your coffee or espresso. Prepare your coffee as strong or light as you want depending on your personal choice. Let your coffee cool a bit as you will not want to melt the ice cream with it.

Next, get your blender and drop two heaping scoops of vanilla ice cream into it. Drop in a shot of espresso or a quarter cup of regular coffee along with a small handful of ice cubes. Blend these ingredients together on high until you see that all the contents are mixed together forming a thick and icy shake.

Now, take the cups that you will be serving the Great Coffee Shakes in. Decorate the inside of the cups with your preferred syrup, adding as much or as little as you desire.

When you are done applying the syrup to the inside of the cups, transfer the blended ingredients from the blender to your cups. Finish it off with whipped cream on the top, and you can even add more syrup on top of the whip cream if you wish.

And there you have it! A Great Coffee Shake!

Thai Coffee Recipe for “Push Buttons” Coffee Lovers

Tuesday, May 25th, 2010

If you love an espresso with a twist, you will love this Thai Coffee Recipe. And, if you own a Super Automatic Espresso Machine, you can make this hot beverage quickly and easily.

Now, my coffee recipes are not an exact science. Just as certain individuals prefer their coffee black and others like their coffee with a lot of Heavy Whipping Cream; we will not be specific with the amount of ingredients, we will let you adjust the ingredients to your taste.

These flexible recipes will give you an opportunity to experiment and have fun with the new ingredients. Here is what you will need for this recipe:

* Fresh Roast Coffee Beans, a citrus variety such as Celebes blend is nice for Thai Coffee.
* An espresso maker. An Automatic Espresso Machine, Semi Automatic or other.
* Heated large Clear Glass Coffee or Cappuccino Mugs, or a to-go coffee cup, large.
* Sweetened Condensed Milk dispensed into a plastic squirt bottle
* Half n Half or Milk (whole, 2%, or skim)
* Vanilla Syrup or Coconut Syrup or both
* Coconut Milk

Dispense your Sweetened Condensed Milk from the can into a plastic squirt bottle. The purpose is to make the dispensing easier, more controlled, and helps you to decorate the glass coffee mug. Also, the container can be easily refrigerated. Once chilled, the sweetened condensed milk becomes viscous and slow to dispense. The squeeze bottle makes it easier to dispense the chilled, thick condensed milk.

OK, Lets make Thai Espresso Coffee

1. Start by warming your Large Clear Glass Coffee Mug

2. Squeeze the desired amount of Sweetened Condensed Milk on to the inside walls of the clear glass coffee mug. Also, dispense some onto the bottom of the cup. (The creamy white milk will contrast the espresso coffee mixture making an impressive display.)

3. Now it is time to make your espresso. If you are fortunate enough to own a Super Automatic Espresso Machine a touch of a button and within seconds you will be dispensing your espresso coffee directly into the condensed milk decorated cup.

If you are using a semi automatic or other espresso maker, you will want to have your beans ground, tamped, and ready to go before you start the recipe.

4. Dispense the desired amount of Espresso Coffee. I use a double shot of espresso and 6 oz. of regular coffee. I use a Super Automatic, but you can do the same combination using any available Espresso Coffee Maker.

5. Add the desired amount of Half n Half or milk, your preference. The heavier the fat content the richer your Thai Coffee.

6. Add Vanilla Coffee Syrup or Coconut Coffee Syrup. This will add more sweet flavor. You can use sugar free syrup if you choose.

Another variation, going with the Thai tradition is the use of Coconut milk.

The first time I worked with this creation I used decaf coffee beans so I could try a few cups and varieties without getting over caffeinated.

Experiment with this recipe and tell me what you find to be the perfect mix.

If you like specialty coffee beverages like this one, you can make this coffee treat in a fraction of the time by using an Automatic Espresso Machine. These machines are fabulous for entertaining and convenient for the pleasure of every day coffee and espresso at home, on the go, or at the office.

Gourmet Coffee – Coffee Recipes By The Cup

Wednesday, March 10th, 2010

One of the many advantages of drinking a beverage both ancient and international is the delightful variety of recipes for enjoying coffee in different ways.

Caribbean, Mexican mocha, Cuban cubano and Grog are only a few out of an endless list of possibilities.

The first is one of the more unusual, but be daring. Start by baking a coconut for thirty minutes at 300F (134C). Remove and allow to cool, then break open the shell and remove the inner flesh and grate. Mix the meat, coconut milk and a half cup of cow’s milk in a pan and heat until it thickens. Then strain the mixture to remove the coconut granules. Mix the mixture with a cup of coffee and sip. Hmm…

Like any mocha, the Mexican is a delicious blend of coffee and chocolate – two natural partners. Take a teaspoon of your favorite chocolate syrup and add a quarter teaspoon of cinnamon and nutmeg. Pour in one cup of coffee and add white or organic sugar to taste. You can mix with whipping cream, or top with whipped cream, too. Mmm…

Cubano is drunk like tequila, straight and like a shot. For the Americano, you might want to dilute with rum or hot milk. Add rum to taste, but any more than a tablespoonful of milk will really spoil the effect. Be adventurous!

Grog is a traditional English holiday treat. Carefully peel a large orange and separate into slices. Do the same with a lemon. Put a peel about the size of one orange slice into the bottom of the cup. Mix in one-third tablespoon of butter, a tablespoon of brown sugar, a pinch each of ground cloves and nutmeg. Then throw in a pinch of cinnamon. Pour in a half-cup of coffee and stir. Add heavy cream to taste. Happy holidays.

There are other international delights, such as Viennese, Turkish and Vietnamese.

For the Viennese, melt one-eighth cup dark chocolate into a sauce pan and stir in one tablespoon of light cream. Slowly add a half-cup of coffee and whip until frothy, then let settle. Sprinkle cinnamon and cocoa across the surface and taste with pinky raised. Now you’re an aristocrat.

The Turkish is simple. You’ll benefit from obtaining one of the special “džezva” pots used to boil the coffee. Yes, boil! Turkish coffee is strong. Start with finely ground Turkish coffee. Pour a cup of water into the pot, then add a half teaspoon of sugar and bring to a boil. Remove from heat and add a teaspoon of the coffee, then stir and replace onto the heat. Remove after a layer of foam appears, then allow to settle and cool.

The iced coffee drink of Vietnam is not to be missed. Acquire a Vietnamese coffee press. The hard part is now over. Put the ground coffee in the press, then pour a tablespoon of condensed milk into the bottom of a cup. Pour boiling water over the press and let drip. Stir and add ice. Wow!

Of course, you could save yourself the trouble and simply take a little world tour, letting the locals do all the work. Not a bad idea actually.
