Summer. Sun. Iced coffee.

In fact, a pretty special one: A Dalgona with espresso and instant coffee, low on sugar. And lots of yummmmm.

You need:

1.2 fl oz freshly brewed espresso • 1/8 c. instant coffee • 4 tsp sugar (without it, you won’t get a stable foam) • 1.5 fl oz hot water • 1-2 tbsp agave nectar or rice syrup or maple syrup • 2-3 ice cubes • Milk

How it’s done:

For a couple of minutes, whisk espresso, instant coffee, sugar, syrup, and hot water in a high container until mixture turns into a thick foam. In case the foam tastes too bitter, stir in a bit more syrup. 
Now, fill ¾ of a large glass with ice cubes and milk. Pour over the coffee foam. Done. Like summer in a glass.

Like summer in a glass.
