Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 2 shots espresso (about 2 oz / 60ml)
  • 1 tbsp brown sugar
  • 1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tbsp water
  • 1 cup oat milk
  • 1 cup ice (plus extra for the glass)

Method
 

  1. Brew 2 shots of espresso into a small bowl, then stir in 1 tbsp brown sugar, 1/4 tsp cinnamon, and 1 tbsp water for 30 seconds until the sugar dissolves.
  2. Pour the espresso mixture into a cocktail shaker with 1 cup of ice and shake hard for 20 to 25 seconds until cold and frothy.
  3. Fill a tall glass with fresh ice, strain the shaken espresso over it, then slowly pour in 1 cup of oat milk down the side of the glass. Finish with a pinch of ground cinnamon on top and serve immediately.

Notes

Barista-style oat milk is worth seeking out for this one; the standard refrigerated carton version tends to look thin and watery in cold drinks. If you're making this for a group, brew all your espresso shots at once, mix them with the syrup, and shake in batches. The brown sugar cinnamon syrup on its own keeps in the fridge for up to a week, which makes the morning routine much faster.
