Ice coffee pops

So I'm about to head down to D.C. tomorrow, and while I am not looking forward to the extreme heat that awaits me, there will be AC.  New York may not be AS hot, this apartment feels like a deep circle of hell.  In an effort to stay cool I made myself some ice coffee last night.  Today, when the iced coffee alone was not cutting it, I made iced coffee POPSICLES!

My boyfriend and I bought popsicle molds last weekend at target, but totally spaced on using them, so I poured milk into my sweetened iced coffee, stirred, and poured into my molds.  I haven't tried them yet, but I'm VERY excited...now I am off to sit in front of my window AC unit and enjoy a popsicle.  

Before I leave, here's how to make your own:
 1) Make a pot of hot coffee
 2) Sweeten (to taste based on what you like) while coffee is still hot
 3) Stir in sugar completely
 4) Cool coffee until chilled
 5) Add milk or cream until desired taste
 6) Pour into popsicle molds
 7) Freeze
 8) Enjoy!
