Iced Ginger Coffee Recipe

Makes 2 servings

16 oz. brewed coffee, divided

1/4 cup vanilla soy milk, divided (or half and half )

4 tsps. ginger syrup, divided

2 cups ice, divided

2 glasses

To make iced ginger coffee:  Into each glass, add 2 tsp of ginger syrup (you can add more to your taste) then add 8 oz. of coffee.  Gently stir and add ice.  Top each with 1/8 cup vanilla soy milk (or half and half) and add a tall spoon, gently stir and enjoy! 

Note: You can buy ginger syrup, or make your own ginger syrup. To make ginger syrup: 1/4 cup ginger root sliced into coins. (Increase ginger to 1/2 cup for a spicier flavor and keep as is for a milder flavor).  Place in a saucepan with 2 cups water and 1 cup sugar. Slowly bring to a boil and let simmer for about 20 minutes. Remove ginger and discard.  Let syrup cool, then place in a jar with a tight fitting lid. Keep refrigerated.
