I can and do guzzle iced coffee year-round, but it’s especially refreshing in the summer.
And of course iced coffee is even better when it’s blended with ice cream.
The milkshakes are sweet, creamy, rich, satisfying, and I used lighter versions of ingredients.
I blended low-fat cookies and cream ice cream with International Delight’s Mocha Light Iced Coffee.
It’s ready to drink right from the carton and has a smooth mocha flavor. With only 100 calories per 8 ounce serving in the iced coffee I can satisfy my coffee and chocolate cravings in one fell swoop.
It’s great on its own over ice for a refreshing pick-me-up, and it makes awesome milkshakes.
International Delight wants you to enter the Summer Iced Coffee Tumbler Sweepstakes on Facebook.
You can enter daily through the end of August for a chance to win an ID Iced Coffee tumbler. 100 tumblers will be awarded each week.
Between the little bits of cookies which add texture, the mocha undertones, and the sweet creamy ice cream, my family went nuts for these.
And it’s lighter, even better. Makes me think seconds are in order.
Beating the heat never tasted so good.

Move over iced coffee, I have a new summer favorite.
Now this is my kind of milkshake!
Thanks, Russell :)
Where has this been my whole summer? I’d say my whole life, but… I only started drinking coffee last fall. My mom nearly threatened to throw me out of the house if I did (my dad suffers through the worst caffeine headaches if he doesn’t start his day with 2-4 cups), so I was terrified to try it! But now, iced coffee has been getting me through most of this summer. With almost no time for sleep, it’s practically a necessity, and adding cookies ‘n cream ice cream?? Totally awesome — and since it’s coffee, I can still call it breakfast! Right? ;)
Totally fun summer drink!
Wow this is seriously gorgeous Averie! I love that its lightened up!!
I think I’m going to start sipping on shakes non-stop. You know, to beat the heat. It’s lightened up, so that means more shake for me.
Oh, drool. This looks amazing!
Wow, this look so good! It is HOT here right now, and could totally use one of these…maybe two, since it’s light ;)
mmmmm, yum! I love a good milkshake!
The forecast is 104 today and 108 tomorrow.. I need about 10 of these, stat. Pinned!
Thanks for pinning and holy moly girl, stay cool!
What a wonderful light/indulgent treat! These are definitely better than milkshakes in my eyes!
Making it with the iced coffee was so brilliant. I want that right now!
Funny, my mom always reminded me that cookies n cream milkshakes were not “date food” because your teeth always look terrible afterwards (same with blueberry smoothies). I always remember that every time I see a cookies n cream shake (note to self: drink in private…even though I’m married and he’s stuck with me now!)
LOL I love that story about date food :)
Are those the pb oreos? I tried one that someone offered me last week because I couldn’t say no, and WOW. I’m almost glad I can’t eat them all the time because I’d be a whale. :)
You know I love my coffee! I haven’t had any desire for iced coffee yet this year though. Too cool this summer. Which is too bad because I love it!
I think hell would freeze over before you’d ever be a whale :) They’re a combo of Cookie Dough Oreos and PB Oreos and Choc-Filled Oreos. I had made recipes recently with all and had like 10 leftover of each type and just started grabbing and crumbling so honestly, it’s an Oreo smorgasbord.
I love cookies and creme ice cream so milkshake that flavor is on my hit list!! Bring it on!!
