Well, i love a cup of plain ol' Joe, but sometime a person just wants to indulge :D I was reading somewhere on the internet that a star bucks executive gets somewhere around 300,000 dollars or more a year, while a coffee farmer only gets $500 a year. And star bucks coffee cost about $3. So if you go to star bucks everyday, it'll cost you about $90 every month! So i was thinking, why not make it at home? You can get creative with this, so if you love coffee, try it!

-
put the water and coffee in a microwave safe bowl for one minute. This will be VERY hot, so be careful!
-
add the sugar and stir until disolved
-
put six ice cubes and leave there until its nice and cold.
-
add the half and half, syrup and coffee mixture into blender. Now you can use chocolate or vanilla syrup. If you don't have syrup, use pudding! It sounds weird, but i only had pudding on hand at the time and it still tasted yummy. Also soy milk works in place of half and half if you're lactose intolerant or if you're a vegan. Also regular milk and a bit of coffee creamer works too if you don't have very much half and half left.
-
now fill the blender to the 2 cup measurement with ice. Blend for about a minute, or until its nice and smooth. Pour it into a glass and add whipped cream if you like and you're done! :D

I just made this, no joke... right this second! And I LOVE IT!! I was craving those McDonald's ice coffee but didn't want to drive in this heat so I ended up making this recipe and it hit the spot!! Personally I added more sugar cuz I'm an addict.

"half and half" is just half milk and half cream. sold in the US in pint cartons and generally used in coffee.
