...just three simple ingredients for a delicious instant coffee beverage...
...get your trusty kitchen hammer out and smash up some of the candies...I used three per cup...after experimenting a bit with different amounts...first one then two and finally three to get the flavor and sweetness just right...
...and a quarter cup of powdered soymilk for each cup...and a teaspoon of freeze dried coffee for each cup...I used decaf...as I'm quite hyper enough without caffeine...but of course you can use caffeinated coffee if you want...
...give it a whir in the food processor...
...don't worry if there are still little bits of candy showing...they'll dissolve in the hot water pretty quickly...but you can smash them better than I did if you want to...or maybe just process them longer...
...put a slightly heaping quarter cup in a mug...
...pour in some boiling water...
...stir it up good...
...and enjoy...
...this stuff is so good...I'm probably going to make a bunch more...and not just for camping...YUM!
...and you know what else I'm thinking would be good...another mix with cocoa and some crushed up peppermints...Karen gave me that idea...
I will be trying this! Thank you for sharing.

Awesome ideas...would make cool Christmas gifts if they were put into a cool package.

ReplyDelete(if no-one has forwarded you the "buy american services for christmas instead of chinese items" email, let me know, it's something to think about!)

You have some great ideas! Looks delicious!
ReplyDeletesooo i just bought butterscotch candies and instant coffee tonight because of your blog. i love camping-friendly vegan foods! (even though i hardly get to go camping these days haha) also love your ideas for the dehydrator. ever done tofu jerky? i need to tweak the marinade a bit so if you've tried it i'd love to compare notes! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm thinking pretty little gift bags and this would indeed make a lovely gift. Great idea!
ReplyDeleteHmmm, not a coffee drinker, but that does look good!
