Notes
*This recipe makes a 16 oz serving. For a smaller serving, divide the ingredients in half.
Blonde espresso creates a smoother drink, while dark roast provides a more robust coffee flavor.
If you don't have a cocktail shaker, a mason jar with a tight lid works perfectly.
Adjust sweetness by increasing or decreasing brown sugar.
This recipe is naturally dairy-free and vegan when made with oat milk.
