Method
- Make the brown sugar syrup: Combine brown sugar and water in a saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract. Let it cool.
- Prepare your espresso. Brew 2-3 shots of espresso.
- In a jar or cocktail shaker, combine the ice, brewed espresso, and 2 tablespoons of the prepared brown sugar syrup.
- Secure the lid and shake vigorously for about 15-30 seconds until the outside of the shaker feels cold. This creates a frothy texture.
- Pour the shaken espresso mixture into your serving glass.
- Top with oat milk. Add more or less to your preference.
- If desired, sprinkle with cinnamon.
- Serve immediately and enjoy your homemade shaken espresso.
Notes
You can adjust the sweetness by adding more or less brown sugar syrup. The amount of oat milk can also be adjusted to achieve your desired creaminess. Store leftover brown sugar syrup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.
