Method
- First, gather all your ingredients—a must for a seamless process. You’ll need iced coffee concentrate, half-and-half, chocolate syrup, ground cinnamon, cayenne pepper, ice, and toppings like whipped cream.
- Next, place all the ingredients into a blender. I like to start with the iced coffee concentrate at the bottom to help everything blend smoothly.
- Add the half-and-half for creaminess, followed by the chocolate syrup. Don’t skimp on this—this is what gives our drink that rich chocolatey flavor!
- Now, sprinkle in your ground cinnamon and a pinch of cayenne pepper. Just a little bit goes a long way, and it will elevate the drink’s flavor.
- Next, toss in the ice. This is crucial for achieving that frozen texture we’re aiming for.
- Blend everything together on high speed until it’s smooth and creamy. You want to ensure there are no lumps and that everything is perfectly combined.
- Once blended, take a moment to taste your creation. This is the time to adjust the cinnamon if you’d like more spice. Blend again if you add anything.
- Pour the mixture into a large glass, watching the creamy, chocolatey goodness swirl as it fills up.
- Top with a generous dollop of whipped cream and give it a sprinkle of additional ground cinnamon. The visual appeal adds to the experience!
- Finally, grab a straw, plop it into your drink, and serve immediately. Get ready to sip on something truly special!
Notes
If you have any leftovers, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two days. Give it a good blend before serving again!
