sounds good,going to have to try that....thanks for sharing0 -
I'm not real familiar with dunkin donuts iced coffee since we don't have them here but I get iced coffee at starbucks. Usually a venti with their classic sweetener (simple syrup) and some cream. You can definitely get it with nonfat milk though (there at least...)
I know when I get it with nonfat its under 100 cals...1 -
I use brewed coffee
Torani Sugar Free Syrup
Almond Milk/Coconut Milk
Ice

My bad I looked it up and its like 160 cals with nonfat milk and the classic syrup. I think what I was thinking before was without the classic syrup. If you can do it without the syrup though that's not a bad way to go.0

I've never been an iced coffee fan. That is, until several months ago (just before starting this journey), when I found cold brew. Now I'm hooked. Cold brew is much, much better than iced coffee, and without the syrups. I don't know what the availability of this stuff is outside of my local region, but if you can find it, try a bottle of Stumptown's Original Cold Brew.0

I just put some almond milk into ice cube molds in the freezer to start having iced coffee at home. Another thing I've done in the past is, Brew coffee at night, put in the fridge (on a hot pad) and it'll be cold in the morning. OR Cold brew coffee. Add coffee grounds to water, and let steep all night in the fridge, strain when serving! It produces a less bitter taste since it never gets hot.
I use splenda and natural vanilla extract! Mmmm and cheap! Unsweetened Almond milk is 30cal per cup!0 -

Exactly. What's in the iced coffee at DD taht makes it so high though? 200 cals for a medium seems like so much...0 -

Stumptown's website (what I linked to) says it's available in retailers across the country. I don't know HOW MANY retailers, though. I would really suggest calling them . . . the stuff is THAT GOOD!0 -

Well if it helps the others around here they have it at Safeway (which in other states is Vons and Ralphs I think)...so it's worth checking for there. At mine its on a refrigerated end-cap with the bottled kombucha and stuff.0 -

Can you ask them for 1/2 the flavoring and nonfat milk?0 -
Glad you posted this, I am addicted to it too! Although I just drink International Delight Iced Mocha from from fridge section. Even the light version is bad. But it is sooooo good!0

Might I suggest just making the trip to Portland and picking up a growler at the brewery? (That's where I discovered it . . . on a hot day, walking through the neighborhood, and my walking partners wanted to stop into the brewery for coffee, because in the NW we drink coffee even on hot days . . .)0 -

That's actually where I tried it for the first time too. Stumptown in Portland...can't remember what the part of town is called. Pearl district? Is there a stumptown there?
My wife and I get down to Portland at least once per year usually and I always make a point to stop at a few places (stumptown, voodoo, rogue, etc...)0 -
