If you feel tired and unmotivated working alone at home, these easy coffee drink recipes will be your lifesaver.
1. Vietnamese Iced Coffee
Vietnamese Iced Coffee is a unique must-try drink that brings a strong sense of Robusta coffee and sweetened condensed milk.
Prepare the coffee first by placing a metal filter above the glass.
Add 2 tablespoons dark-roast ground coffee. Fill hot water all over the filter. Place the lid upon to let the coffee drip down. Wait for 5-10 minutes till all the coffee drips then remove the filter.
Add condensed milk with your favorite amount. Add ice cubes, stir the milk coffee combination and enjoy.
2. Inside Out Iced Coffee
You’re a crazy chocolate fan coffee lover? Now you can have it all with an Inside Out Iced Coffee.
Mix chocolate sauce and black coffee together. Pour it into an iced cube tray and put it in the freezer.
Take the cubes out when they turn solid and put them into a glass. Top the glass with milk and even cream if you want. In this way, you have a delicious iced mocha latte cup. If you don’t like chocolate, you can use caramel sauce instead and it still tastes amazing.
3. Vanilla Ice Cream Coffee
Vanilla Ice Cream Coffee is an ideal drink for those who prefer sweetness to the bitterness of coffee.
Prepare a big glass and put 2 vanilla ice cream scoops inside. Pour hot coffee and let all ingredients blend together. Can anyone resist this yummy, tasty, and easy-to-make drink? Enjoy!
4. Café Mocha
Café Mocha is a latte or cappuccino with added chocolate. It’s easy and simple to make within only 5 minutes.
Combine 1 tbsp. of Instant coffee, 1 tbsp. of sugar, 1 tbsp. of cocoa powder into a cup. You can add more sugar to your favorite taste.
Add 2-3 tbsp. of hot water until the mixture dissolves.
Pour milk on a saucepan. Heat it up on medium heat within 3-4 minutes. Don’t leave it too long as it starts to boil.
If you prefer using a microwave, take it out after 1.5 minutes at high temperature.
Pour hot milk into a heat-resistant jar or a coffee tumbler. Close the lid completely and shake 15-20 seconds till the milk turns frothy.
Put the milk on top of the coffee mixture and enjoy.
Instead of cocoa powder, you can use dark or milk chocolate. Put 10-15gr chocolate and pour 2-3 tbsp. of boiling water to let it meltdown in a mug. Stir till it dissolved then mix with coffee and sugar.
5. Cappuccino
Cappuccino is a classic yet tasty drink to start a fresh day. You can make it at home by a few simple steps.
Steam the milk or heat in a microwave to make it hot.
Combine 1/2 cup of instant coffee, 1/2 cup of sugar, ½ cup of cold water, and a tbsp. of vanilla sugar into a large bowl.
Use a hand mixer until the mixture turns smooth and fluffy foam. Use a spoon to top the coffee foam upon the hot milk glass.
Stir to mix them together and it’s ready to enjoy.
6. Cold Brew Coffee
If you have a stomach issue with the acidity inside a coffee cup, cold brew coffee with less acidity can help.
Prepare high-quality, fresh roasted coffee beans. We have 2 ways to make cold brew coffee.
Method 1
First, grind 1/5 cup (80gr) of coffee beans in a grinder.
Pour the grinding coffee in a bottle or a jar and add in 6 cups (1400gr) of cold or room temperature water.
Stir to ensure it all mixed together.
Close the lid and keep it in the fridge for 12-24 hours. The longer it takes, the stronger the coffee is.
Method 2
Put the same amount of coffee into the grinder.
Only pour 1/3 of 1400gr water which has been already heated up (For exact, it’s 205-degree F). Stir a bit then let it sit for just 1 minute. No more no less.
Add 4 rest cups of cold water right away.
Give it another stir. Then close the lid and put it to the fridge for 12-24 hours. After 24 hours, take it out from the fridge and strain it through a pour-over filter.
7. Dalgon Coffee
Dalgon coffee is the latest TikTok-trended drink that everyone is making at home. Now you can do it yourself with only forks and whisks in case you don’t have a hand mixer.
Combine 2 tbsp. of Nescafe instant black coffee, 2 tbsp. of sugar, and 2 tbsp. of hot water.
Use a fork or a whisk to stir it all together until the mixture turns fluffy, soft foam with a lighter color. It will take you 10 minutes using a whisk or 30 minutes using a fork.
Use a spoon to transfer the foam on top of a glass with ices and fresh milk.
8. Filter coffee
You need to prepare an Indian-style stainless steel metal filter or 2 cylindrical cups and the upper cup has tiny holes under.
Pour coffee powder into the upper cup. Add hot boiling water and place the pressing disc.
Let it rest for 15 minutes so the coffee liquid transfers all to the lower cup. Always use freshly brewed coffee for the best filter coffee cup.
Conclusion
That’s it!
I promise you these easy coffee drinks only take you around 10-15 minutes in the morning to finish. You can use any kinds and brands of coffee as long as that’s your favorite to apply these recipes.
