Ingredients
Scale
- 2 shots of espresso or ½ cup strong brewed coffee
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar, packed
- ¼ teaspoon ground cinnamon (optional)
- 1 cup oat milk
- 1 cup ice cubes
- Oat milk foam (optional)
- Flaky sea salt (optional)
- Cinnamon stick (optional)
Instructions
- Brew ½ cup of strong coffee or pull 2 shots of espresso. It should be hot.
- While the coffee is hot, pour about 2 tablespoons of it into a small bowl or measuring cup. Add 2 tablespoons packed brown sugar and ¼ teaspoon cinnamon (if using). Stir until the sugar is completely dissolved, about 30 seconds.
- Pour the brown sugar syrup into the rest of the hot coffee and stir well. Let it cool slightly if desired.
- Fill a tall glass with about 1 cup of ice cubes.
- Slowly pour the sweetened coffee over the ice. Stir briefly to chill the coffee.
- Pour 1 cup of oat milk over the coffee and ice. Do not stir yet.
- Stir everything together until the coffee and oat milk are fully combined. Adjust sweetness if needed.
- Optional: Froth ¼ cup of oat milk and spoon on top. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and garnish with a cinnamon stick.
Notes
For best results, use hot coffee to dissolve the brown sugar completely. Shake oat milk before pouring. For a less watery drink, use coffee ice cubes. The coffee mixture can be made ahead and stored in the fridge for up to 3 days.
