Ingredients
Scale
- 2 shots (about 60 ml) freshly brewed espresso
- 2 teaspoons brown sugar
- ½ cup (120 ml) oat milk, unsweetened or lightly sweetened
- Ice cubes
- Optional: ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
- Brew two shots (about 60 ml) of espresso using your preferred method and let it rest for about 30 seconds to cool slightly.
- Pour 2 teaspoons of brown sugar into a cocktail shaker or Mason jar.
- Pour the freshly brewed espresso over the sugar and stir gently to start dissolving the sugar.
- Fill the shaker about halfway with ice cubes.
- Secure the lid and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until the espresso turns frothy and lighter in color.
- Add about ½ cup (120 ml) of oat milk directly into your serving glass.
- Strain the shaken espresso over the oat milk and ice in your glass to create a creamy foam layer on top.
- Optional: Add ¼ teaspoon of vanilla extract before shaking for a subtle aromatic twist.
- Serve immediately, stirring gently if desired.
Notes
Use fresh espresso shots for best flavor and crema. Shake vigorously but controlled for about 20 seconds to create frothy foam. Use barista-style oat milk for creamier texture. Adjust brown sugar to taste. Serve immediately for best texture and flavor. Leftovers should be stored separately and shaken fresh before serving.
