I LOVE 85C’s sea salt iced coffee. There’s something about the creamy frothiness and the tiniest hint of salt that really makes my taste buds happy. It’s especially refreshing on a hot summer day. I had my first taste in Irvine, and it was always one of the must-haves whenever we went down for a visit. I was so excited when another milk tea shop opened up closer to home, offering Snowfall Iced Coffee, which is a very similar drink. At nearly $5 a cup, though, this wasn’t something I was willing to pay for regularly. I carefully watched them make it and of course went home and tried to recreate it. I think I came pretty close! If you enjoy your iced coffee creamy and sweet with a hint of something different, give this recipe a try and tell me what you think!
One of the highlights of attending UC Berkeley was the easy access to inexpensive good eats. One such place was Raleighs, on Telegraph. The first time I ate there, a friend ordered a huge hunk of mud pie. While it looked tantalizing (ice cream and Oreos– what’s not to like?), my first thought was, I could make that for a fraction of the cost! So… I did. The next day, I pieced together four simple ingredients and wowed my friends. It was just as easy as I had hoped, and it was one of the first recipes I created and shared (on Xanga, if you’re old enough to know what that is!). A crowd-pleaser with just four ingredients and a practically no-fail guarantee– what more could you ask for?
