⭐ PRO TIPS
• Chill the coffee completely before blending so it doesn't melt the ice.
• Freeze brewed coffee in ice-cube trays for an even stronger coffee flavor without watering down the drink.
• A tiny amount of xanthan gum helps create the smooth, thick coffeehouse-style consistency.
• Blend only until smooth—overblending warms the mixture and makes it thinner.
• Adjust sweetness to taste depending on the syrups you use.
