Cold Brew Coffee: Chi-fil-A Cooykat Version
This is my daughter in the picture below that has an obsession with their Ice Coffee from Chic-Fil-A. She gets it 6 days a week, and would get it 7, but they aren’t open on Sunday. So she did some research on a copycat version of it. So much so that she made a pitcher full and put it in the refrigerator, only to have one of her kids go pour them a big glass. 😂😂 Needless to say, you shoukd have seen his face, he is not a coffee drinker. 😂😂 He asked what was wrong with the Tea. 😂😂
~~Ingredients ~~
Chick-fil-A uses coffee from Thrive Farmers, which you can purchase online.
3/4 cup coffee, cold brew
1 teaspoon vanilla extract or you can use vanilla syrup
3 Tablespoons simple syrup* see recipe below
3 Tablespoons heavy cream
1/3 cup whole milk
Chewy Ice
~~Instructions ~~
Begin making your iced coffee by brewing your coffee. If you are using the hot brew method, brew your coffee just a little stronger than normal, and then refrigerate until chilled. If you are using a cold brew coffee maker, combine your coffee grounds with water, and chill to brew.
Assemble
Add ice to your cup, then add in your cold coffee, along with the vanilla and the simple syrup. Stir to combine. Add heavy cream and milk.
Drink and enjoy.
*Simple Syrup:
Simple syrup is a liquid sweetener made from granulated white sugar and water, by heating it on the stove til all the sugar is dissolved.
Chick-Fil-A uses a blend of whole milk and 2% for their iced coffee. Using a little bit of 2% milk instead of all whole milk reduces the fat a little.
