Today’s recipe is for a cold coffee drink known as Freddo Cappuccino. The term “freddo” translates from Italian to mean cold or cool.
Ingredients
To prepare a classic Freddo Cappuccino, you will need:
- Espresso
- Ice
- Frothed milk (to be frothed in a milk frother)
Preparation Steps
Step 1: Prepare the Espresso
- Use a classic espresso recipe: 18 grams of coffee for 36 grams of espresso.
Step 2: Froth the Milk
- Many modern milk frothers have the function to froth cold foam. Use this function to prepare the milk.
Step 3: Assemble the Drink
- Fill a glass with ice.
- Pour the espresso over the ice.
- Carefully pour the frothed milk over the espresso and ice.
Tips for the Perfect Freddo Cappuccino
- Use a double espresso to ensure the coffee flavor is strong enough.
- Be mindful that as the ice melts, it can dilute the drink. To avoid this, you can skip the ice and just add the frothed milk to the espresso.
- For a distinct contrast between the coffee and milk foam, ensure the milk is frothed to a thick consistency, with no liquid milk remaining.
Enjoyment
The Freddo Cappuccino is a refreshing and cool coffee drink, perfect for hot days. Experiment with the recipe to find your preferred balance of coffee and milk foam.
Prepare this delightful beverage at home and enjoy the refreshing taste of a well-made Freddo Cappuccino.
