Brown Sugar Shaken Espresso Iced Coffee
You'll never stir your coffee again. Also, this is better than Starbuck's. Just saying.
Ingredients:
2 shots espresso or 1/2 C cold brew if you don't have espresso at home, in which case it should be called a shaken cold brew :p
1 Tbs brown sugar
Splash of cream
Splash of whole milk ( I use raw )
For cold foam:
1.5 Tbs cream or half and half
drizzle of maple syrup
Brew the espresso in a medium glass jar over brown sugar. Shake the brown sugar and espresso until sugar is dissolved and blend is foamy. Add milk and cream. Shake again (It's important to do this before the ice, to cool the espresso and not end up with watery coffee). Whisk together cold foam until thickened and the right consistency. I like to use a milk frother for this. Pour over ice. Shake again, and enjoy this amazing espresso iced coffee--better than most coffee shops in my humble opinion!
This is the espresso machine we use: Breville Creatista Plus . It's the second one that we've owned, and we've had it for about 3 years now and are quite happy with it. Our dream is to own one that takes grounds instead of pods, but...baby steps :D
