Frozen Coffee Recipe

Frozen Coffee recipe – make this for an at home pick me up! Make this at home instead of spending $5 at Starbucks. So easy and tastes like a treat!
I have been obsessed with iced coffee ever since my husband introduced me to the magical Instant Iced Coffee recipe. Although iced coffee is usually my drink of choice, every once in awhile I find myself craving something different.
This frozen coffee is the perfect drink to make when you’re craving a coffee shop frappuccino. It’s easy, cheap, and tastes amazing!
Just tried this recipe for the first time and I love it! It’s strong enough for you to feel like you’re actually drinking coffee and getting your caffeine fix, but has just enough sweetness for a yummy cold treat. Will definitely be using this again and again. – Nicki
Ingredients to make Frozen Coffee
- chilled brewed coffee
- truwhip (or coolwhip)
- chocolate syrup
- your favorite creamer
- ice
This recipe can be customized into any flavor you want! Use different kinds of brewed coffee and different flavors of creamer to change it up.
One of my favorite hacks is to use half of one creamer and half of another. Hazelnut, caramel, french vanilla, white chocolate, anything you want! You could even swap out the chocolate syrup for caramel syrup. Many times I will use half vanilla and half caramel creamer to switch up the flavors!
How to make frozen coffee
Add the chilled brewed coffee, cool whip, chocolate syrup, creamer, and ice to a blender and blend until smooth. Pour into a glass and grab yourself a straw! If you are feeling fancy, add some whipped cream and drizzle some more chocolate syrup over the top.
If you keep brewed coffee in your fridge you can make this recipe in less than 5 minutes. The next time you are brewing a pot of coffee, save some in a mason jar and put it in the fridge to make this frozen coffee later!
It is perfectly sweet, without being overly sweet, and that icy frozen texture is the perfect treat for your tastebuds. Just as delicious as a Frap you would pay $5 for anywhere else.
My husband is a hot coffee drinker. When he makes his morning coffee, I just have him brew me an extra cup and stick it in a mason jar in the fridge when I want to make this frozen coffee as an afternoon pick me up.
Just pour hot coffee into a mason jar, let it cool off a few minutes in the glass, then put the lid on and put it in the fridge until chilled. Then it’s so easy to make this recipe any time I want!

I don’t dont have cool whip, will reddi wip work?
It’s not going to work the same as cool whip is frozen
Could you use the instant cold coffee and whipped cream(homemade) for this? Sounds delicious but I don’t use cool whip on anything due to the ingredients
Hey, I don’t have any whipped cream at home… Can I make this without the whipped cream? Or is the whipped cream necessary?
The cool whip is necessary to get that frozen coffee consistency.
@Joy Shull, What about using Ice Cream instead of cool whip?
Freeze coffee in ice cube tray, use this instead of regular ice cubes. As it melts coffee will have better coffee flavor, not so watery.
Looks great but I need a “lighter” version. Have you tried without the Truwhip?
I have not. You can try it, but it will not be as sweet/creamy. Here is a recipe if you are just looking for a good iced coffeeEasy Instant Iced Coffee 🙂
Is using truwhip or any type of whip necessary for this recipe? We don’t have any in the house but I am eager to try and make it.
cool whip works too 🙂 Enjoy!
I make frozen coffee with the left over coffee I had in the morning. I fill about 1/2 of a water bottle with coffee add creamer of any choice and then freeze overnight. I will take it to work and let it sit in the fridge and by lunch time it’s ready to drink. This way it’s always ready to take on the go.
What is truwhip? Is that like Cool Whip? TIA
Yep, it’s like a lighter version of cool whip. Either one will work in this recipe!

I love frozen coffee when the weather is warm and this looks just perfect! 🙂
