Coffee Slushie
1/2 cup milk (I used 2% milk)
2 Tablespoons sugar (I used 2 packets of Saccharin Sweetener)
2-1/2 teaspoons instant coffee (or decaf instant coffee)
1 cup ice cubes (I used miniature size ice cubes)
1.) In a blender, add the first 3 ingredients.
2.) Place lid on blender, and blend on high for about 30 seconds.
3.) Now add the ice cubes, cover, and blend on high speed until the slushie has thickened.
4.) Pour slushie into a glass and enjoy.
5.) Yields: About 1-3/4 cups (1 or 2 servings)

Substitutions: Instead of adding water ice cubes, add coffee ice cubes, which are made with a strong coffee, (double strength) and omit adding the instant coffee all together.
Vanilla:
Vanilla Slushie - To make a vanilla slushie, add 1 teaspoon of pure vanilla extract to the blender, before blending the ingredients together.
French Vanilla Slushie - Substitute 1/2 cup of French Vanilla liquid coffee creamer in place of the milk, and omit the sugar all together.
Hazelnut Slushie - Substitute 1/2 cup of Hazelnut liquid coffee creamer in place of the milk, and omit the sugar all together.
Tiramisu Slushie - Substitute 1/2 cup of Tiramisu liquid coffee creamer in place of the milk, and omit the sugar all together.
Note: I'm sure other flavored liquid coffee creamers would be a good substitute in place of the milk. I just haven't tried any of the others just yet!
