DIY ICED COFFEE AT HOME | ICED COFFEE RECIPE

[Music] what's up you guys and welcome back to my channel for those that are new here hi my name is Rochelle and I like to make thrifting and fashion videos along with a little bit of beauty and just sharing my life with you guys over here on my little corner of the internet for today's video I'm doing something totally different for my channel but it's something that you guys keep requesting like a bunch of you guys keep asking for this video I mentioned it one time and then everyone was really really curious you have asked enough I finally listened and I am here to make my iced coffee for you guys now keep in mind I am on the keto diet so there's a few things that you guys can maybe do differently from me but I'll just kind of like give you those options because I used to do this before keto as well so I'll just kind of tell you the differences of what I do now and yeah let's get right on into it okay so first off I always make my coffee at night because I want it to cool down I don't want to water it down with ice cubes some people will make the coffee and then just water it down with ice cubes but I don't like that I want the full concentration of the coffee I always make coffee right before I go to bed I get my French press right here and then this is my little water boiler you guys don't need one of these before having this I got this off Amazon but before having this Everett and I just used a kettle like a little tea kettle but this is just faster and easier for me I'll try to link this from Amazon down below but yeah you can you can find these at like Marshalls Target all over the place and it's just so easy and convenient so first thing I do is just fill this little guy up with water and then plug it in so I just put this on that's a little base and I turn it on for it to get hot it probably takes about I don't know two three minutes and then while that is getting hot I just prepare my French press here are my little coffee grounds from Starbucks Everett and I usually use Pike Place coffee grounds but then we also get what's this brand and then this is the one that we've been getting recently from our local grocery store Boyd's good morning we like to do a medium roast because we like the flavor of the coffee but the Lichter the roast some more caffeine so I want more caffeine so I don't do a dark roast we usually do a medium kinda rest and then in my French press I'm just going to put three tablespoons of coffee grounds and then I'm just going to wait for my water boil and I'll be right our tea kettle just turned off it is now boiling and so now we're just getting ready to pour it into the French press everton I usually make two French presses because we both end up drinking about two cups of coffee each and so one French press per person I just put the little lid over the top right here but don't plunge it down just leave it over the top so we will just leave this overnight go to bed and it'll be nice and cool for the morning so it's the next morning here's our little French press from yesterday to make my iced coffee I'm all about reduce reuse recycle you guys know that so I really love these little Starbucks iced coffee reusable I think they're like three bucks have my little reusable straw off honestly just regular iced coffee cups I also reuse I throw them through the dishwasher hold on you guys I literally don't throw the cups away I reuse them a million times they are easily reused I just throw them in the dishwasher wash them up and reuse them over and over and over so it's a really good way to just not use so much not throw away so much so it's totally easy and also I feel like when it's in a Starbucks cup it feels more like Starbucks placebo okay so first thing I do is just take a little bit of ice I fill mine up about halfway with ice I'm personally a more sweet coffee kind of person I don't like it like sickeningly sweet but I do like my coffee sweet so I like to sweeten my coffee with torini I am sugar free so I just buy the sugar free trainees I do things that these are sweetened with new clothes which I'm okay with but not everyone likes so chloros you can also find these little ones at like TJ Maxx and Marshalls this brand is just called Sebastiaan O's and this one is sweetened with stevia so it's a little bit more natural I just like the flavor of the trainees better and they also make a ton of trainees that aren't sugar-free I get mine at the grocery store called smart and final and they literally have like 30 40 different flavors but you usually can find these just at a normal grocery store and they always have like the basic flavors like vanilla chocolate caramel you know ones like that so yeah I just buy this big guy and I personally like my copy a little sweeter so I put about four pumps in so you don't have to do that much if you don't want or you can do more or whatever your preference and then I just pour in my cold coffee here from my French press boom and then for creamer since I am on keto we use heavy whipping cream for most of our like dairy stuff but before going keto I did use half and half or even just like almond milk oat milk whatever your preference is for creamer go ahead and do that even if you get those like already sweetened creamers one of those called like the nut milk made cream roommate what are they called coffee coffee mate um you can use those Everett and I just don't like to use those because they have a lot of chemicals and they're really sweet so we just do it this way but before being sugar free I did love the like coffee mate Italian sweet cream is like my favorite flavor so good and creamy and yummy for me personally my favorite flavor of the torini is the salted caramel right here I just have the classic caramel but the salted caramel is so bomb you guys I love this one so that's my normal everyday like iced coffee but yeah you can do all sorts of different flavors chocolate what else is another good one Everett likes vanilla bean I hate vanilla bean but yeah they have so many different flavors so you guys can just choose like whatever your preferred flavor is put a little the heavy whipping cream in there and then all I do is stir it up put my little lid on Lam bam thank you ma'am that's it you guys this is probably a really short video but you guys kept asking and really wanted to see how I make my iced coffees at home it's so easy it's so much more affordable than Starbucks and to be honest with you guys now that I'm used to like how my iced coffee tastes and how I like it whenever I go to Starbucks and get an iced coffee I actually like prefer mine more now even sometimes I will leave one of these torini bottles like a smaller mini size in my car and sweeten it with my own Turini that's just in my car cuz I don't know why but now I don't I prefer mine over the Starbucks iced coffees now so yeah this is my iced coffee recipe let me know if you guys have your own iced coffee recipe or how you like to do it some people like to do like just a cold what's it called cold brew and they don't heat the water up I personally think it tastes better what the water heated up but you can do it that way as well that's just how I do it all right you guys I hope you guys enjoyed this video let me know down below if you guys want any other like recipe videos Everett
