Picture
Everyone knows I just love my coffee and since I am down to one cup a day I make sure it is good and that I enjoy it. At home I have my machine and love it, but when we go camping it's another story.

I used to love buying the Nestle Coffee & Milk for camping. Just squeeze the tube into a mug of boiling water and I had a very tasty, albeit very, very sweet, cup of coffee. As a treat it was lovely (and quick on those freezing High Country mornings).

Now I make this coffee creamer, put it into a jar with a tight screw top lid and enjoy my coffee around the camp fire. It's even better than the Nestle product because I use my favourite instant coffee, giving me the strong, rich flavour I adore.

I use MOO condensed milk and a quarter cup of instant coffee. You might like to experiment with the coffee until you get the strength you prefer.

MOO Coffee and Milk
Ingredients:
2 cups milk
2 cans sweetened condensed milk (or 1 quantity of MOO condensed milk)
1/4 cup instant coffee

Method:
Over medium low heat warm the milk.  Add the coffee and stir to dissolve. Add the condensed milk and stir to combine.  Allow to heat to just before simmering, whisking all the time. Cool slightly pour into a clean, sterilised bottle. Keep in fridge. Keeps for up to 2 weeks.
