Pro Tips

Use cold coffee! Hot coffee will melt the ice too fast and water it down. Brew it ahead and chill it.
Blending for a frappe? Skip the ice cubes and blend everything together for a thick, slushy drink.
Want it extra creamy? Use half-and-half or heavy cream instead of milk.
Make it less sweet? Cut back on the caramel sauce and toffee, or use unsweetened milk.
No toffee bits? Try crushed nuts or a sprinkle of cinnamon for a different twist!

Tools You’ll Need

  • Tall glass
  • Spoon for stirring
  • Measuring spoons & cups
  • Whisk (for mixing caramel into milk)
  • Ice cube tray (if making ice at home)

Substitutions & Variations

  • Dairy-Free: Use almond, oat, or coconut milk and dairy-free caramel sauce.
  • Sugar-Free: Use sugar-free caramel sauce and a sugar substitute.
  • Stronger Coffee Flavor: Use espresso instead of brewed coffee.
  • Extra Crunchy: Add more toffee bits on top or mix some into the drink.

Make Ahead Tips

  • Brew your coffee the night before and chill it in the fridge.
  • Pre-mix the milk, caramel, and vanilla so it’s ready to pour.
  • Freeze coffee into ice cubes for a stronger, non-watered-down iced coffee!

Leftovers & Storage

  • Best enjoyed fresh, but you can store it in the fridge for a couple of hours without the ice.
  • If storing, give it a good stir before drinking since the ingredients may settle.
  • Avoid freezing—it’ll mess with the texture.
