The Perfect Spiked Iced Coffee
The Perfect Spiked Iced Coffee is a creamy, refreshing coffee cocktail that blends bold coffee with smooth Irish cream, vanilla vodka, and rich half-and-half for a drink that feels both indulgent and effortless.
Ingredients
- 2 cups Brewed Coffee
- 4 oz Irish Cream Liqueur
- 4 oz Vanilla Vodka
- 12 oz half-and-half
- Whipped Cream
- A Pinch of Freshly Grated Nutmeg
- 2 pcs Cinnamon Sticks
Instructions
- Start with a strong black coffee. Let it cool completely.
- Pour the cooled coffee into an ice tray and freeze until solid.
- Add coffee ice cubes to a glass. This keeps your drink cold without watering it down.
- In a shaker, combine vanilla vodka and half-and-half. Shake gently to combine.
- Pour the mixture over your coffee ice cubes.
- Stir in the Irish cream liqueur for that signature smooth finish.
- Top with whipped cream, a sprinkle of nutmeg, and a cinnamon stick.
Notes
For the iced version: freeze brewed, cooled coffee in an ice tray until solid — about 6 hours, or overnight. No time to freeze cubes? Use ordinary ice and brew the coffee at double strength so it survives the dilution.
