Equipment

Ingredients

  • 4 ounces (2 shots) freshly brewed espresso
  • 2 teaspoons granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup nonfat milk

Instructions

  • Pour freshly brewed espresso into a lowball serving glass. Add granulated sugar while the espresso is hot, and stir to combine. Allow the espresso to cool for 5 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, froth nonfat milk with a hand frother for 60 seconds until a glossy, smooth foam has formed.
  • Add a handful of ice to the cooled espresso. Carefully spoon the frothed milk on top of the espresso to create a layer of foam on top. Serve immediately.

Notes

If you prefer a frothy espresso, blend two to three ice cubes with the espresso in a drink mixer to give a creamy texture. Then, strain the coffee into a glass filled with ice for serving.
Don't be tempted to use a plant-based or higher-fat milk. The foam will not turn out frothy and glossy with other variations of milk.
