About Chocolate Cold Coffee
Cold coffee is my go-to beverage on hot summer days. I make many versions, but this cold chocolate coffee has become my recent favorite.
This homemade chocolate coffee tastes just like the one served at your favorite cafe. You will be glad to know it is super easy to get the same taste at home with just a few basic ingredients.
The benefit of making it at home is that you can use the best ingredients, and homemade is much more economical.
Ingredients
Chocolate Shavings – Use chocolate shavings to decorate the serving glasses. This step is totally optional, though.
Coffee – Use any Instant coffee powder. You can also use a coffee decoction like the one we make for South Indian Filter Coffee or Vietnamese Coffee.
Sugar – You can increase or decrease the quantity of sugar to suit your taste. You can also use sugar-free substitutes like monk fruit or stevia.
Milk – Use whole milk (full-fat milk) to make the coffee creamy.
Cocoa Powder – Use unsweetened cocoa powder.
Chocolate Syrup – Gives an intense chocolaty taste to the beverage.
Ice Cream – Add chocolate ice cream for an intense chocolaty flavor and creaminess. If you want to make it a little lighter, use vanilla ice cream instead of chocolate.

Chocolate Cold Coffee FAQs
To make chocolate shavings, hold a bar of chocolate with one hand and scrape it lengthwise with a vegetable peeler or a knife. This will create pretty, delicate shavings. Refrigerate the shavings in an airtight container and use them as needed.
This coffee tastes best when made fresh. But if you still have leftovers, store them in a glass jar and refrigerate them for up to a day. Shake well before serving.
