Ingredients:

  • 3 tbsp (22g) Finely ground coffee
  • 6 oz (177ml) Filtered water, heated to 200°F (93°C)
  • 1 cup (140g) Large ice cubes
  • 2 tbsp (30ml) Whole milk
  • 1 tbsp (15ml) Simple syrup
  • 1/2 tsp (2.5ml) Pure vanilla extract

Instructions:

  1. Brew the coffee concentrate: Use 6 ounces of 200°F filtered water for 3 tablespoons of finely ground coffee to create a robust 'long shot' or concentrate.
  2. While the coffee is piping hot, stir in the simple syrup and vanilla extract until the sucrose molecules are fully dissolved and distributed evenly.
  3. Flash-chill the brew: Immediately pour the hot concentrate over 1 cup of large ice cubes. Stir rapidly until the liquid is cold to the touch and the ice has tempered the brew.
  4. Final Assembly: Fill a fresh glass with clean ice and pour the chilled coffee concentrate over it. Slowly add the milk, allowing it to marble through the coffee before serving.
