Everyone that has been reading my blog for the past oh…TEN YEARS knows this Mama loves her coffee! We just moved into our apartment for the summer and we are trying to eat better & make good choices. Thanks to SPLENDA® Sweetener I have a yummy coffee recipe to enjoy this summer without the guilt.
I found this recipe on the SWEET SWAPS™ website. If you’ve never been to SWEET SWAPS™ before check it out, the site has some yummy low-calorie recipes using SPLENDA.
We get together with Terence’s family just about every Saturday for family dinners. We celebrated May birthdays at our last dinner and I brought this Mocha-Caramel Iced Coffee. 
Mocha-Caramel Iced Coffee
2-3 servings (I tripled the recipe so we would have enough for our crowd)
INGREDIENTS
- 12 floz Brewed Coffee
- Crushed Ice
- 2 packets of SPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener
- Caramel flavoring of choice to taste
- Mocha flavoring of choice* to taste
- Cinnamon if desired
DIRECTIONS
- Blend brewed coffee, ice, SPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener, and flavorings on blender. Make sure ice is crushed into small chunks. Pour into cups and top with cinnamon and whipped topping if desired.
Splenda + Cocoa
Add the amount of SPLENDA® you need (based upon the recipe above).
I didn’t have caramel flavoring, but I did have some hazelnut creamer so I added a dash of that. This recipe is so easy that no matter what you do it’s going to turn out good. You can’t go wrong with coffee+cocoa+whipped cream+cinnamon 🙂
Blend until smooth.
We had a great time celebrating birthdays and the coffee was the perfect companion to our birthday cake! We celebrated mine and Terence’s birthday, Mom’s birthday, and Aunt Loyce’s birthday. Although I don’t really celebrate birthdays anymore…I’m forever 30.
We always have a good time getting together with all these superheroes. It’s fun to watch them play and soar around 🙂 They grow up too fast I tell ya and I’m thankful Grana and Pop open their home and let us all gather.
Connor and Ellie are a day apart in age and are BFF. They just adore each other so much!

Coffee puts a smile on everyone’s face!
I think everyone enjoyed the coffee and it was nice and refreshing in this hot Texas weather. I’ll definitely be heading back to the SWEET SWAPS™ website for some more recipes this summer. I’m excited for a fresh start and want to make better choices like reducing my sugar intake by swapping out with SPLENDA® Sweetener.
Cool Fact: Swapping just one cup of sugar with one cup of SPLENDA® No Calorie Sweetener, Granulated can save more than 600 calories?
