Iced Coffee

It’s so easy to make iced coffee at home! Make a fresh batch of coffee and let it cool down. Blend it together with some milk and sugar and pour over ice for a great start to your day or a chill weekend afternoon.

Latte

Perhaps you don’t know how to make latte art, but that’s not necessary for enjoying a great cup of latte at home. Heat some milk in a saucepan and whisk until you get foam, then pour it over freshly made coffee. Decorate with some ground coffee or cinnamon.

Mocha

If you can make a latte, you can make a mocha too. The only difference is that you add chocolate syrup to your cup before the rest of the ingredients. You can also transform an iced coffee into an iced mocha if you add chocolate syrup to the iced coffee cup!

Espresso is a great option for those of us who want pure coffee taste or want to skip milk, but its strength can be a little overwhelming for some people, especially novice coffee drinkers. Are you looking to experience espresso’s flavor but not be blown over by its strength? These options are worth trying!

Lungo

Espresso is usually made by forcing hot water under pressure through coffee grains, resulting in only about an ounce or two of strong, caffeine-packed liquid. Lungos are different, however, as the amount of water pressed through the beans is over double of what an espresso results in, resulting in a milder drink.

Americano

Americanos are commonly drunk throughout the world as a milder version of espresso which results in a similar product to a drip coffee. An espresso shot is first brewed and then a few ounces of hot water are added to it to make a toned-down version of the original drink.

Long Black

Long blacks are much like americanos, but made in reverse order. First, hot water is added to a cup and then espresso is added and stirred into it. It also uses less water than Americanos, usually around 3 or 4 ounces. This drink is especially popular in Oceania and can commonly be found on coffee shop menus there.

Would you like to try making this fun drink at home? Here’s how to do it!

Ingredients

• 4 oz espresso coffee
• 2 oz sweetened condensed milk
• 1 oz whipped cream
• Cocoa powder (optional)

Instructions

Start off by adding two ounces of sweetened condensed milk to a short, wide glass.

Once you’ve done this, head to your espresso maker and make about 4 ounces of espresso coffee in the glass containing the sweetened condensed milk. The coffee will rest on top of the condensed milk, creating two distinct layers.

After the espresso has been brewed, add an ounce or so of whipped cream to make another layer on top of the coffee.

Finish it off by dusting cocoa powder on top of the whipped cream, if you would like. Drink hot and enjoy!

Here’s how!

Step 1: Start off by brewing around 6 ounces of strong coffee. To do this, you can use either an espresso maker or a moka pot. Don’t use a drip coffee maker, as the resulting product will be too weak.

(Note: if you’d like to make your iced coffee sweet, go ahead and add sugar to the hot coffee and stir so it dissolves.)

Step 2: Next, put the hot coffee you’ve made in the freezer for around 10-15 minutes, or enough to cool it down to room temperature.

Step 3: After this, take the coffee out of the freezer and place it into a glass along with a few ice cubes.

Step 4: Finally, take a container of refrigerated milk and pour in the desired amount into the glass along with the ice and coffee. Stir, and then your quick and easy iced coffee is ready to enjoy

In fact, cafe bombon only contains two main ingredients! There’s no need to worry about fancy additions, expensive syrups, or hard-to-find ingredients, making it a perfect choice to make at home. Here’s how to do so!

Ingredients

• 2 ounces condensed milk
• 4 ounces espresso or strong coffee
• Cocoa powder (optional)
• Ground cinnamon (option)

Instructions

Start off by making a double shot of espresso, or simply by making approximately four ounces of strong coffee. Once it has been made, set it off to the side.

Take a medium-sized glass and add the two ounces of condensed milk to the bottom.

After this, go ahead and pour in the espresso or coffee. This will form two separate layers, with the coffee on top and the condensed milk on the bottom.

Finally, you can sprinkle ground cinnamon and/or cocoa powder on top of the drink in order to give it a little bit of extra flavor. Stir with a spoon to mix, or enjoy the two parts separately. Enjoy!
