Ingredients
Scale
- 2 shots (about 2 fl oz / 60 ml) freshly brewed espresso (or strong brewed coffee/cold brew concentrate)
- 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar (about 30 g)
- ½ cup (120 ml) oatmilk, preferably barista-style
- 1 cup (240 ml) ice cubes
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
Instructions
- Brew your espresso (about 2 shots or 60 ml). Use freshly ground beans for best aroma. If no espresso machine, brew strong coffee concentrate.
- Add 2 tablespoons brown sugar to hot espresso and stir vigorously until sugar dissolves completely (about 1 minute).
- Pour the sweetened espresso into a cocktail shaker. Add 1 cup ice cubes and optional vanilla extract.
- Shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds to chill and aerate the espresso, creating a frothy texture.
- Pour the shaken espresso into a glass, straining out ice if preferred.
- Slowly pour ½ cup oatmilk over the espresso to create a layered effect.
- Stir gently if desired or leave layered. Serve immediately with a straw or spoon.
Notes
Shake vigorously for 15-20 seconds to achieve frothy texture. Use barista-style oatmilk for creaminess. Keep shaker and glass chilled for best refreshment. Sweeten to taste by adjusting brown sugar. Can substitute almond or cashew milk. Prepare espresso-brown sugar mix up to 24 hours ahead, but shake with ice and add oatmilk fresh.
