MY ALL-DAY ICED COFFEE

Make a cup of coffee, adding any desired sugar, place in refrigerator to cool.
 When coffee cools down, take out of refrigerator.
Add creamer or milk , if desired.
 Place in a tall ice coffee cup and place in freezer overnight. Coffee should fill only about half the container.
 
 
Next morning, make coffee, add sugar if desired, and put on shelf in refrigerator to cool.
When cool and ready to go, add cream or milk, if desired
Take the frozen coffee out of the refrigerator.
Pour cold coffee on top of the frozen ice coffee and you are good to go.  This will last you all day without refrigeration....enjoy!
