A Healthier Take on an Iced Cap

We've talked about Iced Caps before! They're creamy, gooey, delicious...and likely absolutely LOADED with fat, calories and chemicals. So...I'm on a mission this summer! I am going to experiment with ingredients and techniques and come up with a far healthier, yet equally delicious Iced Cap to rival anything Tim Horton's can make!

My goals:
  • Use only real, natural ingredients like milk, coffee, vanilla, cream
  • Use NO refined white sugar - instead I'll try to stick to honey or other natural sweeteners (no artificial sweeteners either! Yes...I know it'll be a challenge!)
  • Cut back on both calories and fat
  • Make a gorgeously delicious, creamy and smooth summertime drink that I won't feel so awful ingesting! :)

Have any tips for me? Just post a comment or email me at christina@happyslob.com Thanks guys!

Coffee Punch Recipe - Unique Coffee Recipes

Here's a brand new take on what we think of as 'punch.' This is a recipe for a crowd, but you can obviously scale it back to make fewer servings. Enjoy! And thank you to Jeannie for another great coffee recipe.

Coffee Punch

Ingredients:
2 quarts strong coffee
2 quarts milk
2 quarts vanilla ice cream

Mix the above ingredients in a punch bowl. Makes 50 servings.
Makes a great summer punch!
For those who like a stronger drink,
you can add coffee liquor to the punch.
