What to expect
The flavor is nutty, lightly sweet, and coffee-forward, with a smooth, slushy texture similar to a blended iced coffee from a café. The hazelnut creamer acts as both the sweetener and the creamy base, so there is no need for sugar, milk, or extra ingredients.
This frozen coffee is suitable as a summer drink, a dessert-style coffee, or a simple homemade alternative to store-bought frappes. Top it with whipped cream, a drizzle of chocolate or caramel sauce, or a sprinkle of cocoa powder. It pairs well with a pastry, biscotti, or a light breakfast.
Equipment needed
A standard countertop blender works best for a smooth, even texture. A personal blender or food processor will also work, though you may need to blend in batches or scrape down the sides.
