Notes
- Use cold brewed coffee or brewed coffee that has been cooled to avoid melting the ice too quickly.
- Adjust the sweetness by varying the amount of maple syrup and sugar according to your taste preference.
- For a vegan version, substitute milk with almond, soy, or oat milk and use a dairy-free whipped topping.
- If you don’t have a blender, you can vigorously shake the mixture with ice in a sealed jar, but the texture will be less smooth.
