Maybe you can get a French press and make coffee that way for your wife! That could be a nice romantic gesture. It's the little things. :love:

I've never heard of coffee crisp - will have to look that up. I'll be two tons if I keep listening to you, lol.

I usually keep alert by drinking iced Japanese green tea - but I'm also a bit addicted to the mini-Starbucks counter we have at work. Just plain black iced coffee, with no sweetener. Yes, the large size is grande, but they also have venti which is even larger and trenta which is super-large. I usually take a venti with plenty of ice - I have this *thing* about chewing on ice, lol.

It's quite possible that my very existence was built on sweets.

I like green tea. I'm not sure I'd like it cold. I suppose I can try it.

I made some coffee ice cubes with some left over in the pot a couple of days ago. Gonna try those out tomorrow morning with some cold brew. Gonna also try it out with sun tea.

Thanks for the link - it looks very light and delicate and I love anything coffee flavored. My favorite ice cream flavor is coffee as well.

That's a great idea - to make coffee ice cubes for iced coffee, and sun tea cubes for sun tea. I'll have to try that some time. I actually put ice cubes in milk - but I won't be making milk ice cubes!

Coffee ice cubes? Yeah, that makes sense. I suppose it would help someone who is trying to reduce the amount they drink in a day.

Wouldn't milk ice cubes be like a lesser form of ice cream? What would you mix them with? Baileys?

It keeps the coffee/tea from getting watered down while keeping it nice and cold is all. Same with milk or any other freezable, drinkable liquid.

I've never made milk ice cubes because I think the texture would be kind of strange, like a shardy iced milk. Which would cause it to melt into the milk anyway, defeating the whole purpose lol. I only put regular ice cubes in milk, which I like very cold and watered-down. You all needed to know this! :)

I'm gonna freeze some beer cubes later on today. For science purposes.

Beer cubes be flaky, I think.

We'll find out in the name of science.
