Nothing goes better with a warm spring day than finding that last year's shorts are a little too big around the waist and a picking up a frothy cold Tim Hortons' iced cap.
But where can those of us living abroad go to fulfill that iced java craving? Sadly, Tim's has not yet taken over the world and there are still many underdeveloped areas of this continent with a *shudder*
Starbucks or a *double shudder*
Dunkin Donuts on every street corner!
Well, don't fret because thanks to this handy dandy recipe, Canucks abroad can make iced caps at home.
That's right, break out that blender, baby!
Copycat Tim Hortons' Iced Cappuccino Recipe4 cups milk
1 cup non-dairy coffee creamer (Tim's uses 18% cream!)
2 tsp. vanilla
2 Tbsp. instant coffee
3 Tbsp. hot chocolate mix
1/4 cup cold milk
Heat the 4 cups of milk to boiling; remove from heat. Add creamer, vanilla, instant coffee and hot chocolate mix; stir well. Pour mixture into a container with a lid; put into freezer and freeze until very firm, but slightly slushy. Put mixture in a food processor; while processing, add the 1/4 cup milk in small increments to mixture. Process until all is combined and nicely slushy.
The recipe is "supposed" to make 6 to 8 servings, but we won't tell if it just amounts to one giant serving.
