- 1 gallon of whole milk {whole milk makes it creamier and thicker but you could also substitute a leaner variety}
- 1/2 gallon of vanilla ice cream
- 1/2 gallon of chocolate ice cream
- 1/4 cup powdered instant coffee
- 2 cups of white sugar
- 1 cup of water
How to Make It
- In a small saucepan, mix the coffee powder, sugar, and water and heat until the sugar has melted and all the ingredients are dissolved and well mixed. Don’t boil.
- Refrigerate the mixture in an airtight container until you’re ready to use it. The liquid will get kind of syrupy.
- Before the party guests arrive, pour the chilled syrup into a large punch bowl. {I often use a large apothecary jar to hold the punch instead of a standard punch bowl.}
- Add the entire gallon of milk and stir. Add all the ice cream {by scoops} into the punch. Stir gently to mix. The ice cream doesn’t have to melt all the way prior to the party … it serves as the ice, keeping the punch nice and cold, and will slowly melt throughout the party.
- If I’m hosting a large gathering, I like to make two or three batches of the syrup and store them separately in mason jars so I can quickly make another batch of punch without any extra measuring.
- Enjoy! This rich and creamy coffee punch will quickly become a requested recipe that’s handed down through friends and served at every party, shower, or special occasion. {It’s become legendary in my circle of friends!}
