A simple and refreshing iced espresso drink made by shaking freshly brewed espresso with brown sugar and oat milk over ice, creating a creamy, frothy, and naturally sweet coffee treat.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 shots (about 2 oz / 60 ml) freshly brewed espresso
  • 1 to 1.5 tablespoons brown sugar (light or dark)
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) chilled oat milk
  • Ice cubes (about 1 cup / 240 ml)
  • Optional: pinch of cinnamon or a drop of vanilla extract

Instructions

  1. Brew 2 shots (about 2 oz / 60 ml) of espresso using your preferred method. Let the espresso cool for a minute.
  2. While the espresso is still warm, stir in 1 to 1.5 tablespoons of brown sugar until completely dissolved.
  3. Add ice cubes to your shaker or jar until it’s about half full (roughly 1 cup / 240 ml). Pour the sweetened espresso over the ice.
  4. Pour in 1/2 cup (120 ml) of cold oat milk.
  5. Secure the lid tightly and shake vigorously for about 15-20 seconds until frothy.
  6. Strain the mixture into a tall glass filled with fresh ice cubes.
  7. Optional: Dust a pinch of cinnamon on top or add a straw before serving.

Notes

Use fresh, hot espresso to dissolve the brown sugar properly. Shake vigorously but avoid over-shaking to prevent dilution. Large ice cubes melt slower and keep the drink strong longer. Barista-style oat milk froths better but regular oat milk works fine. Adjust brown sugar to taste to avoid over-sweetening. Clean shaker promptly after use to avoid residue buildup.
