Cold brew, coffee syrup, vanilla, ice. The coffee hit without the booze, exactly as it should have always been served at brunch.
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a shaker with ice.
- Shake hard for 20 seconds (this is what gives it the signature foam).
- Double-strain into a chilled coupe.
- Float 3 coffee beans on the foam.
Notes
The hard shake is non-negotiable. Without it, you just have iced coffee in a cocktail glass. The foam is the drink.
