Anyone who has been to cafe coffee day would have tried their famous beverage 'Tropical Iceberg'. CCD was one of the first exclusive coffee outlets that we had in our town. This place was the hangout place for us youngsters. The good old school life and college life, CCD had a part to play. Even though we still have CCD outlets, the competition is tight with Starbucks, Costa Coffee, and other emerging cafes. Yet, CCD has my heart and I hope they survive in this competitive world.
Tropical Iceberg is a super cold, frozen coffee and the texture of the drink appears to be slushy-like. Coffee in the form of a frozen drink is a thumbs up from me and being able to make a replica of this drink is even better. I first posted this recipe on youtube and was overjoyed with all the positive feedback. They taste the same, yum! Give this recipe a try and you'll love it. Make them in the comfort of your home, in your pajamas, and watch long hours of Netflix. 😋
Things to do for a perfect Tropical Iceberg:
I made espresso using instant coffee powder. Make the espresso in hand and let it chill in the refrigerator for at least 15 -30 minutes, the aim here is to get a chilled espresso for the drink.
Please use an extremely good, heavy-duty blender. At least a decent one because we are going to crush ice! And for a smooth slushy texture, your blender must be good. I used Wonderchef's Nutriblend. It is a 22,000 RPM, 400 watts mixer grinder and does a very good job for the price of it.

Ingredients:
Ice cubes - 1 1/2 cup
Vanilla essence/ extract - 1/4 tsp.
