Cinnamon Roll Frozen Coffee Recipe
Your coffee wants dessert. Your cinnamon roll craves adventure. They met. It was delicious. Forget choosing between breakfast and caffeine. This drink combines them. It tastes like a caffeinated hug. Your blender is the magic maker.
What This Is
This recipe makes a cold coffee drink. It blends coffee, milk, ice, and cinnamon roll pieces. The result is thick, sweet, and full of cinnamon flavor. It resembles a milkshake but has coffee. It is very good.
What You Need
- 1 cup strong cold brew coffee (chilled)
- 1/2 cup milk (whole milk or oat milk work well)
- 1 medium cinnamon roll (torn into small pieces, about 1 cup)
- 1 cup ice cubes
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon cinnamon sugar (mix 1 tsp sugar + 1/2 tsp cinnamon)
Tools You Need
- A good blender
- A large glass
Steps to Make It
- Prep the Cinnamon Roll. Tear your cinnamon roll into small chunks. Use day-old rolls. They blend easier. Stale is good here.
- Combine Ingredients. Put everything in your blender. Add the cold brew coffee, milk, torn cinnamon roll pieces, ice cubes, vanilla extract, and cinnamon sugar.
- Blend It Smooth. Secure the blender lid. Start blending on low speed. Increase speed gradually. Blend until the mixture looks smooth. It should have no large chunks. This takes about 45-60 seconds. Stop and scrape sides if needed.
- Check Thickness. Look at the mixture. Is it too thick? Add one tablespoon of milk. Blend again for 5 seconds. Repeat only if necessary.
- Pour and Top. Pour the frozen coffee into your large glass. Add extra cinnamon sugar on top. A tiny piece of cinnamon roll makes a fun garnish. A straw is helpful.
Helpful Notes
- Coffee Strength: Use strong cold brew. It cuts the sweetness. Weak coffee gets lost. Brewed coffee works too. Chill it completely first.
- Cinnamon Roll Tip: Leftover rolls? Freeze them. Frozen rolls blend great. Skip the defrosting step.
- Sweetness Level: Taste your cinnamon roll first. Very sweet rolls need less extra sugar. Adjust the cinnamon sugar to your liking. Start with less, add more later.
- Milk Choice: Whole milk makes it creamy. Oat milk adds nice flavor. Almond milk works but is thinner. Use what you prefer.
- Clean Fast: Rinse your blender immediately. Dried cinnamon roll glue is tough. Hot water helps.
Enjoy your drink. It solves the breakfast-coffee debate. You win.
