Ingredients

  • 1 espresso coffee consider about 5 grams for each serving
  • 2-3 tablespoons almond milk syrup - even four tablespoons!
  • 2-3 ice cubes

Instructions

Brew the Espresso

  1. Fill the Moka pot base with room-temperature water, up to the valve level.

  2. Insert the filter, fill it with ground coffee, and distribute it evenly (tap lightly, but don’t press!). If you want precise measures: one gram of coffee per each ten grams of water.

  3. Assemble the Moka pot and place it on medium heat with the lid open.

  4. Wait for the rich espresso to gush out from the spout.

Prepare the Glass

  1. Fill a glass with the almond milk syrup and add the ice cubes.

Combine & Serve

  1. When, by eye and not letting it bubble, all the coffee is out, stir it with a teaspoon and pour it in the glass.

  2. Mix gently, allowing the coffee to cool and blend with the sweet almond flavors

  3. Sip slowly, enjoying the breeze, the sun, and the taste of Puglia.
