Ecomely’s estimate, calculated from the ingredients with the ANSES Ciqual food composition table, excluding sides and seasoning added to taste.

Instructions

  1. Make a strong coffee (about 400 ml) and let it cool completely.
  2. Dissolve the sugar in the coffee while it's still slightly warm so it blends well.
  3. Divide the ice cubes between 4 large glasses.
  4. Pour the sweetened coffee over the ice, filling about three quarters of each glass.
  5. Top up with the cold milk and stir gently.
  6. Serve right away, with a straw if you like.

Variations and tips

Frothy version. Shake or blend the coffee, sugar and ice in a shaker or blender until light and foamy, then top up with the milk.
