Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Brew Your Coffee

    Brew a shot of espresso, or make a very strong coffee. Let it cool for a minute or two so that the ice won't melt immediately.

  1. Add Ice and Milk

    • Fill a glass with ice cubes.

    • Pour in milk or your chosen milk alternative. Adjust the amount depending on how creamy you like it.

  1. Sweeten and Flavor to Taste

    • Add sweetener: 1-2 tsp sugar, honey, syrup, etc. Stir to dissolve.

    • Add optional flavoring: vanilla extract, a dash of cinnamon, chocolate syrup, etc.

  1. Mix and Serve

    Stir all ingredients well so flavors blend. If you like, garnish (e.g. with cinnamon stick, chocolate shavings). Drink immediately while cold and refreshing.
