I’m super excited to try out this brown sugar oatmilk shaken espresso ’cause it’s this crazy mix of bold espresso, sweet syrup and creamy oat milk that totally gives me those chill, offbeat vibes even if I mess it up a bit sometimes.

I think this Brown Sugar Oatmilk Shaken Espresso is a balanced energy boost. I love how the hot espresso gives a good hit of antioxidants while the oat milk packs some fiber.
The brown sugar adds calories and taste, and the ice cubes cool everything nicely for a refreshing sip.

Pro Tips
1. Try chilling your shaker and cup in the fridge beforehand so your drink stays ice-cold for longer.
2. Make sure you let the hot espresso cool down just a bit so it doesn’t melt the ice too fast.
3. Give the shake a really good, vigorous shake; it helps create a froth that makes the drink taste richer.
4. Experiment with different amounts of brown sugar syrup if you want to tweak the sweetness.
5. Use quality oat milk and fresh espresso for the best flavor overall.
