作り方

1. 1

   Prepare a strong espresso shot using 3 tbsp espresso powder and 100 ml hot water. Brew using a moka pot, French press, or espresso machine.

   5 minutes

   For authentic flavor, use freshly ground beans.

2. 2

   Allow the espresso to cool to room temperature. You can speed this by placing it in the fridge for a few minutes.

   5 minutes

   Cooling prevents ice from diluting the coffee too quickly.

3. 3

   In a tall glass, add ice cubes until the glass is half full.

   1 minute

   Use large ice cubes to slow melting.

4. 4

   Pour the cooled espresso over the ice. Add 100 ml cold water to dilute, or use cold milk for a creamier texture.

   1 minute

   Adjust milk and water ratio for desired strength.
