Moka Pot Latte (Iced)
A moka pot is an easy, economical way to get that espresso taste at home without an actual espresso machine. Try my favorite way with little maple syrup and 2 % milk and you’re set!
Ingredients
Scale
- 4 tbsp whole bean coffee, dark or medium roast
- hot water
- maple syrup
- 2 % milk
- iced
Instructions
- Grind coffee beans to medium-fine coarseness.
- Fill base of moka pot halfway to the nozzle with hot water.
- Fill the funnel with coffee grounds and level off. Insert into the base of the moka pot.
- Hold the base with a towel (it will be hot) and screw on the lid.
- Place the moka pot on the stove over low heat. Leave the lid open so you can see when the coffee begins to flow into the top portion. As soon as it does, watch it! Wait till it just starts to turn into a thin-looking foam. Or if you feel unsure what I am taking about here, the second it stops and sputters, remove it. You eventually get the feel for it. This is extra caution is to prevent over-brewing and thus a more bitter tasting coffee.
- Once brewed, pour the coffee into a small heat–proof container or jar.
- Fill an 18 oz glass with ice. Then pour in milk to about halfway. Drizzle some maple syrup over the ice. Then drop the shot in.
- Enjoy!
Notes
To use honey – I also love using honey. If you decide to do so, just add the honey to the hot coffee and stir until incorporated before adding to the milk & ice.
Other delicious additions – I also love adding a splash of vanilla and a pinch of sea salt. Seriously so good and my cheat way to get the taste of my maple sea salt creamer.
