Instructions

  1. Make a double-strength coffee and let it cool completely.
  2. In a shaker or jar, mix the chilled coffee, sugar and vanilla until the sugar has fully dissolved.
  3. Fill two large glasses with crushed ice or ice cubes.
  4. Pour the milk over the ice, then the coffee-sugar mixture on top to create a layered effect.
  5. Add a pinch of cinnamon and serve straight away, with a wide straw.

Variations and tips

Creamy version. Replace half the milk with liquid cream for a richer drink.

Sweeter version. Halve the sugar and add a spoonful of sweetened condensed milk instead.
