Description
A creamy and slightly sweet iced espresso drink perfect for a café-style pick-me-up at home.
Ingredients
- 2 shots blonde espresso (or 2 oz strong brewed espresso)
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar (light or dark)
- 1 cup oat milk (barista or regular)
- Ice (a generous amount for shaking and serving)
Instructions
- Brew two shots of blonde espresso and pour them into a heatproof cup.
- Add 1 tablespoon brown sugar to the hot espresso and stir until it fully dissolves.
- Transfer the sweetened espresso into a cocktail shaker and add a generous amount of ice.
- Shake vigorously for about 10–15 seconds until the outside of the shaker is very cold and the espresso is frothy.
- Strain the shaken espresso over a glass filled with fresh ice.
- Slowly pour oat milk on top to your preferred creaminess, then stir gently just once or twice.
- Enjoy immediately.
Notes
For a creamier mouthfeel, use barista-style oat milk. If you don’t have espresso, use strong brewed coffee instead.
