We put on our lab coats, synced our watches and did some super-secret scientific mumbo-jumbo for this project. In our quest for the ULTIMATE coffee to ice, we compared Skookum Blend^® coffee vs. Deadman’s Reach^® coffee vs. Resurrection Blend^® coffee vs. Bruin Blend^® coffee vs. Breakfast Blend coffee vs. Three Peckered Billy Goat^® coffee. Whew!

Drum roll please… The winner was Deadman’s Reach^® coffee but close second was Resurrection Blend^® coffee, for a transcendent iced elixir.

Ingredients

6oz of cool strong coffee (Deadman’s Reach^® coffee) Ice

Optional

1 TBSP Sweetened Condensed Milk

Instructions

Prepare ahead and keep a gallon or so in the fridge. For a single serving we used about 1 TBSP of sweetened condensed milk and added it to about 6 oz of strong coffee (we used 1 overflowing TBSP of whole bean coffee freshly ground and prepared with a Melitta filter cone) – you may wish to adjust this ratio and brewing methods to your own taste buds. Cool and add ice. Make your own Deadman's Reach^® coffee swizzle sticks: Download the printables here (pdf).
