Ingredients
Scale
- 2 shots espresso (about 60 ml / 2 fl oz)
- 2 teaspoons brown sugar
- 3/4 cup oat milk (180 ml)
- 1 cup ice cubes
- Optional: 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon or vanilla extract
Instructions
- Brew two fresh shots of espresso (about 60 ml / 2 fl oz). If using moka pot or strong brewed coffee, prepare approximately the same volume.
- While the espresso is still hot, stir in 2 teaspoons of brown sugar until fully dissolved.
- Add about 1 cup of ice cubes to your cocktail shaker or mason jar.
- Pour the sweetened espresso directly into the shaker over the ice.
- Add 3/4 cup (180 ml) of oat milk into the shaker. If using vanilla or cinnamon, add it now.
- Seal the shaker tightly and shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds until frothy and cold.
- Strain into a tall glass filled with fresh ice.
- Optional: Garnish with a pinch of cinnamon or chocolate shavings.
Notes
Use hot espresso to dissolve brown sugar fully for smooth sweetness. Barista-style oat milk froths better. Shake vigorously for best frothy texture. Serve immediately for optimal taste and texture. Store leftovers in fridge up to 24 hours and shake gently before serving. Avoid freezing. Clean shaker promptly after use.
