Note
Storage: Keep the blend in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. It will keep for several weeks.
Substitutions: You can use decaffeinated instant coffee for a caffeine-free version. For a different sweetness profile, try swapping brown sugar for coconut sugar.
Sweetener Tip: If using an artificial sweetener like Equal or Splenda instead of sugar, note that the volume conversion is different; approximately 16 teaspoons of granulated sweetener equal 1 cup of sugar.
Cost Savings: Making this blend at home is significantly cheaper than purchasing pre-made toffee coffee mixes, often costing about one-third of the retail price.
