July 9th 2012: My Low-Calorie Chilled Vanilla Coffee

I’m a big coffee drinker, but in the hot summer my wake-me-up/the world is a better place drink isn’t as refreshing to me. So I simply chilled my usual hot breakfast beverage and voila, delicious and cool!
Just follow the steps below.

    Step 1:
    Brew your regular hot blend of coffee. I use my little 4-Cup Pot.
    Step 2:
    Turn off the warmer.
    Mix in (I like my coffee sweet so adjust to your taste if needed) 3-4 TBSP of Sweet-N-Low (or whatever artificial sweetener you like).
    Add 2 TBSP of Sugar-Free Vanilla Creamer- Powder
    Then pour the sweet coffee mixture into a 20oz (or whatever larger size water bottle you have handy) and add 1/2 Cup of milk.
    Step 3:
    I make my cool coffee concoction after dinner, so it can sit and chill throughout the night. Then in the morning when I wake up- pour and yummy chilled coffee that doesn’t cost an arm/leg and is low in calories as long as you use the artificial sweetener and sugar-free creamer.
    *TOTAL*
    And only 120-Calories!
    That’s 120-calories for the entire mixture and is about 3-4 servings- Enjoy!

      Yes Sam -Seriously! I wrote out my directions on how to make a low-calorie version of iced-coffee totaling 120-calories per four cups of coffee by substituting artificial sugar and sugar-free creamer.
      Did you ever consider that not everyone is an iced-coffee connoisseur and found my post helpful; especially people like myself who are constantly searching for helpful dieting tricks/substitutes for everyday favorites, coffee included.
      To give you an idea from the website administration side: >Currently this page has reached 1,558 people, those are unique visitors who came upon this article and stuck around to read for an average of 18 seconds. Also having a combined total of 436-Pins, that’s pretty amazing!
      I am very pleased to have reached so many people and will continue to post my low/zero calorie recipes to share with my fans. And even though you didn’t find this post helpful, many others did :)

    There’s no need to be mean! I have been looking for a replacement for morning Starbucks (price and CALORIES) so I was really happy when I found this on Pinterest, so thank you very much Stilettos and Legos – lots of smiles :)

      Thanks Deb, glad you enjoyed the coffee! And yes this is a much more affordable and healthier option than hitting Starbucks or McDonald’s.
