Complexity Level: Basic
Time Required: 10 minutes
Resources Required:
- 600 ml of strong coffee
- 150 ml of light cream
- 4 scoops of coffee ice cream
- 1 bottle cola drink
Instructions:
1. Mixing the coffee and the light cream
Use the dark beans of coffee to make a really strong drink. Two and a half cup or 600 ml of coffee would be enough for four servings. Mix the coffee and the light cream together with help of a spoon. Give a light whip to the mixture with the spoon itself. The light cream that you are adding will make the drink silky, smooth and yummy. The bitter taste of caffeine is balanced by addition of the cream. It enhances the taste of your drink.
2. Divide the mixture
Equally divide the mixture in four glasses. Half fill all the glasses as you need room to add other ingredients as well.
3. Add ice cream
Add one scoop of the coffee ice cream to each glass. Be careful while adding the ice cream. Do not drop it from much height as you may spill the mixture out of the glass if you do so. You can use a plain ice cream if you have a hard time finding a coffee flavored ice cream. Measure and put standard scoops in each glass to avoid any variation of taste.
4. Add cola
Now, the next step is to gradually add cola to each glass. You should pour the cola in the glass by the sides after slightly tilting the glass. You will successfully restore the carbon in the cola if you do so. It will give best results to the drink you prepare by keeping the original flavor fixed inside the drink. You can pour the cola in a jug first and then transfer it to the glasses, just to avoid any mess.
