Brown Sugar Shaken Espresso
Nutty, freshly-brewed espresso is combined with a hint of vanilla and brown sugar, poured then shaken over ice, and topped off with a generous pour of oat milk.
Equipment
- lidded jar or cocktail shaker
- espresso maker (higher end)
- espresso maker (lower end)
Ingredients
- 4 shots espresso (or 1 cup of strongly brewed instant coffee)
- 2 1/2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup ice (+ extra for the shaker)
- 1 cup oat milk
- 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon (for garnish )
Instructions
- Start by brewing your espresso. Once brewed, add in the brown sugar and vanilla extract. Let that sit for a minute or two to dissolve and cool.
- In a mason jar with a lid, or cocktail shaker, add ice. Pour the espresso over the ice and give it a good shake for 15-20 seconds. You’ll know it’s done when the espresso is cold, and lightly frothy.
- Prep two drinking glasses with more ice and pour the shaken espresso over the new ice. Next pour in the oatmilk. Top with a dash of cinnamon. Stir before drinking to combine the espresso and milk. Enjoy!
Notes
You can make the sweetened espresso mixture about 2 days ahead of time and keep it in the fridge. When you’re ready to drink it, pour it over ice, then add the oat milk.
