Blueberry Iced Coffee
I'm new to the coffee world, I just became addicted just a short few months ago. I have always been a tea drinker but a trip to visit friends in May turned me into a full fledged coffee drinker. So when Green Mountain Coffee® contacted me and asked me to become a K-Cup Ambassador, I said yes!
I found out that I love iced coffee…am obsessed with it. I'm on the sweeter side when it comes to my coffee. I totally get it from my Mom, she puts five million sugars in her coffee.
Every month, Green Mountain Coffee is going to be sending me a new flavor of their K-Cups…and August was their Wild Mountain Blueberry K-Cup. Have you ever had coffee that smelled like the flavor but didn't taste like it? Yep, you know what I'm talking about. This coffee actually tastes like blueberries and it's great. Smooth tasting and I had to make it into an iced coffee.
First, I add the sweetened condensed milk to the bottom of my cup, brew the wild mountain blueberry coffee via my Keurig brewer. When it's finished brewing, mix the coffee and milk really good. Taste and add more milk if needed. Then add about 2 cups of ice and I mixed it with a chopstick. (I use chopsticks a lot as a cooking utensil. 🙂 )
It kinda reminds me of Vietnamese Iced Coffee with a blueberry flavor. Enjoy, enjoy.

Hopefully your palate will graduate to drinking fresh coffee. I am not a fan of Keurigs for the simple fact that the coffee in the K-cups are not very caffeinated and it causes a lot of waste to our environment, much like bottled water. You should try your recipe using cold brew coffee concentrate instead. I think you would be very pleased. Sorry if i offended anyone who enjoys Keurigs, but i used to work for a coffee roaster so i became very well educated in the coffee department. When you get down to it, coffee beans are very similar to wine grapes. The fresher the beans are, the more caffeine you will get. You could get a hint of blueberry undertones by simply drinking fresh roasted Ethiopian Harar. Also buying Fair Trade coffee beans helps support the actual farmers who put in so much work . This recipe sounds delicious though! I have recently been using my coffee concentrate with fresh banana milk and it turned out great 🙂 I will definitely try this but with concentrate instead.
Blueberry is such an unexpected flavor for coffee! But it does sound intriguing – blueberries do taste delicious in, well, anything!
This sounds like the perfect afternoon pick me up!
First let me say, so jealous! 🙂 I love the gig and I know you will become addicted to coffee like I am, lol. Condensed milk in iced coffee is like heaven in a cup, I always add it in mine… YUM!
I love my Keurig and I love the mountain blueberry coffee.. I also use chopsticks for almost everything 🙂
I never thought about the sweetened milk though.. I’ll give it a shot!
Mmm, sound great and I love the idea of using sweetened condensed milk. I’m the same way with sugar though. I have more sweetener than coffee. I’m even teased because I feel like the only Asian that puts sugar in her tea too!
I don’t drink coffee (just the smell alone gives me a headache) but like the idea of blueberry iced… something else. 🙂 Just wanted to say that I love how colorful these pictures are!
I’ve been drinking Green Mountain Coffee for years at my husband’s office, but just recently got a Keurig at home. Can’t wait to try this. 🙂
The grocery store here has Keurig’s so I’m gonna have to bother them about making sure to get some of the blueberry kind! This sounds heavenly 🙂
I only drink iced coffee (I don’t care for hot coffee) but I’ve never tried blueberry! This sounds really good!
