A quick and easy shaken espresso drink combining brown sugar, cinnamon, and oat milk for a frothy, sweet-spiced coffee treat ready in under five minutes.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 shots (about 2 oz / 60 ml) freshly brewed espresso or strong brewed coffee
  • 2 teaspoons packed brown sugar (light or dark)
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) oat milk (preferably barista-style)
  • 1 cup (240 ml) ice cubes (crushed or whole)
  • Pinch of sea salt (optional)

Instructions

  1. Brew 2 shots (about 2 oz / 60 ml) of espresso or strong coffee concentrate and let cool slightly for about 2 minutes.
  2. In a cocktail shaker, combine 2 teaspoons packed brown sugar and 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon. Sift cinnamon first if desired.
  3. Pour warm espresso into the shaker over the sugar and cinnamon. Close lid and shake vigorously for 20-30 seconds to dissolve sugar and create froth.
  4. Open shaker and add 1 cup ice cubes and 1/2 cup oat milk. Close lid and shake gently for 10-15 seconds to chill and mix.
  5. Pour the shaken espresso mixture into a tall glass and serve immediately. Optionally, sprinkle a pinch of cinnamon on top.

Notes

Use warm espresso to dissolve sugar quickly but not too hot to avoid melting ice fast. Shake vigorously for frothy texture. Barista-style oat milk froths better. Avoid over-icing to prevent dilution. Freshly ground cinnamon enhances flavor. If brown sugar doesn’t dissolve well, shake extra 10 seconds with hot espresso before adding ice.
