Ingredients

• Almond Milk Ice-cubes
  2 cups Almond milk, unsweetened
• Cold Brew Coffee
  2 cups coarsely ground dark coffee
  4 cups filtered water
• Date Caramel
  15 pitted dates
  3-6 Tbsp hot water
• Frappuccino
  16 standard-size almond milk ice cubes
  2 cups cold brew coffee
  3-5 Tbsp date caramel

Method

• The night before, pour almond milk into a standard ice cube tray and freeze.
• To make the cold brew, add coarsely grounded dark roast coffee beans to KitchenAid® Cold Brew Coffee Maker. Set in the refrigerator to brew overnight.
• The next day, make date caramel by adding 15-20 pitted dates to KitchenAid® 5-Speed Diamond Blender. Pulse on low until small bits remain, then stream in hot water while the blender is on until a paste is made. You will need to scrape down the sides and encourage it along periodically. Only add enough water to form a paste - too much and it will be too liquidy. Set aside.
• To make 2 frappuccinos, add all 16 ice cubes and 2 cups cold brew coffee to a KitchenAid® 5-Speed Diamond Blender and blend on high until puréed and smooth. Add date caramel 1 Tbsp at a time and blend. Taste and adjust flavor as needed, adding more date caramel to sweeten.
• Divide between tall serving glasses and top with whipped cream (optional).
