Greek Iced Coffee (Frappe)

prep time: 2 minutes
 
 
yummm
ingredients:
2 tsp Nescafé instant coffee granules
1 tsp sugar
1/2 cup milk

directions:

Put some ice cubes in a glass and pour in the milk, you can use more or less milk and mix with cold water to taste.
 
Mix the instant coffee, sugar, and 1/4 cup water in a drink shaker or cup. Cover and shake like crazy, the more you shake the foamier it'll get. Pour the coffee mixture over the ice, stir with a straw or chopstick, and enjoy.

comments:

Apparently this has become something of a national drink in Greece over the last 50 years. I was skeptical about using instant coffee, but it works really well in this recipe. You wouldn't get the same kind of foam on top with normal coffee grounds. It's a great summer alternative to iced latte if you don't have an espresso machine. My next experiment will be to pick up some irish creme or vanilla flavoring and try adding that.
