Ingredients :

• 2 tablespoons vanilla syrup
• ice cubes
• 1 to 2 tablespoons half and half cream, or sweetened condensed milk
• cold pre-brewed coffee, instant coffee or instant espresso

Instructions 

• Fill a mug or mug-sized glass to the brim with ice cubes.
• Add vanilla syrup and half and half or sweetened condensed milk.
• Fill the remainder of the mug with cold pre-brewed coffee, instant coffee, or espresso.
• Stir well.

Notes

1. To make the simple syrup
   1. Bring 2 cups of water to a simmer.
   2. Add 2 cups sugar and stir to dissolve.
   3. Remove from heat and let the mixture completely cool. 
   4. Store unused syrup in a container in the refrigerator for up to 4 weeks.
2.  To make the homemade vanilla syrup
   1. Heat ½ cup simple syrup to a very low simmer.
   2. Add ¼ cup brown sugar and stir just until dissolved.
   3. Remove from heat.
   4. Add 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract (I prefer Mexican vanilla).

• Put the syrups in squeeze bottles for easy dispensing and storage.
• You could make coffee ice cubes in an ice cube tray so that when the coffee cubes melt, your coffee won’t become watered down.
