Orange Iced coffee

Orange Iced coffee

Sweet & tangy flavoured coffees have always been my favourite. The tartness of the Orange and subtle sweetness of the sugar definitely add a nice tang to what is originally dubbed with freshly brewed medium roast coffee. And I would suggest you to try Columbian coffee brewed in French press or chemex.

Ingredients

§  150ml Brewed coffee (french press/ chemex)

§  One medium size Orange

§  20ml Sugar syrup

§  6-8 Ice cubes

Directions

§  Brew you coffee, strain it and cool it down.

§  Make a juice for half orange and pour into glass.

§  Fill glass with ice cubes and pour brewed coffee over it.

§  Add sugar syrup and as guest to stir it before they sip.

You might have seen this trend of lemonade iced coffee, and this with more Indian twist as we want our coffee sweeter.

Dolce Chocolate Latte

Dolce Chocolate Latte

Delicious, easy, café style Latte Recipe with lots of chocolate and cream, surely a perfect after food beverage!

Ingredients

§  30ml Espresso (Moka Pot coffee)

§  60ml Milk

§  60ml cream

§  20gm White chocolate

§  10ml Vanilla Syrup (optional)

Directions

§  In a medium size pan heat milk, cream, white chocolate and espresso until chocolate melted, stirring occasionally.

§  Add Vanilla Syrup and make it hot as per desired drinking tempreture.

§  Pour into coffee mugs and top with some greted white chocolate.

If you want to make it complete vegan, replace milk with almond milk and cream to soy cream. Also if you don’t have espresso maker or moka pot at home, don’t give excuse try with south Indian filter decoction.
