Freddo Espresso

Ingredients

• 2 ounces espresso – freshly brewed, hot
• 2 tsp granulated sugar – or to taste
• 1.5 cups ice cubes

Instructions

1. Fill a tall glass with 1 cup of the ice cubes and set aside.
2. Brew a double espresso (2 ounces).
3. While the espresso is hot, stir in the granulated sugar until fully dissolved, or leave unsweetened if preferred.
4. Add the remaining 0.5 cup ice cubes to a cocktail shaker (or lidded jar), then pour in the espresso.
5. Seal and shake vigorously until very foamy and well chilled, 10–15 seconds; the shaker should feel cold and the espresso should have a thick crema.
6. Strain the foamy espresso over the ice in the glass, letting the foam crown the top. Serve immediately.
