Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 shots espresso or 2/3 cup (160ml) strong brewed coffee
  • 2 tablespoons (25g) brown sugar
  • 3/4 cup (180ml) oat milk
  • 1 cup (about 240ml) ice cubes
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • Pinch of salt (optional)

Instructions

  1. Brew two fresh shots of espresso (about 2 ounces) or 2/3 cup strong coffee with a stronger grind or double the coffee grounds.
  2. While the espresso is still hot, stir in 2 tablespoons of brown sugar until completely dissolved. Add 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract if desired.
  3. Fill a tall glass with 1 cup of ice cubes.
  4. Pour the sweetened espresso over the ice slowly to avoid splashing.
  5. Pour 3/4 cup of chilled oat milk over the espresso. Froth the oat milk first if you have a milk frother, otherwise pour and stir gently.
  6. Give the drink one last gentle stir to mix the layers. Serve immediately.

Notes

Dissolve brown sugar in hot espresso to avoid gritty texture. Use fresh, strong coffee for best flavor. Frothing oat milk is optional but adds creamy texture. Adjust sweetness to taste. Use large ice cubes to prevent quick dilution. Espresso can be brewed and sweetened up to 24 hours ahead and stored in the fridge.
