Vanilla Creamy Iced Coffee

Ingredients: Instant Coffee granules, vanilla essence, milk, hot water, ice cubes 

Step 1: Add three tablespoons of milk to a glass and froth it using a milk frother. Keep aside.

Step 2: In a 500 ml glass jar or mug, add the coffee, vanilla essence, jaggery powder, and 20 ml hot water. Mix well. You can use milk frother for more body, but you can mix it with a spoon.

Hazelnut Cappuccino

Ingredients: Coffee beans, unsalted shelled hazelnuts, sugar and milk of choice

Step 1:  The first step is to grind your coffee beans and nuts. A strong blender, food processor or dedicated spice grinder should do the trick! Brew the espresso into a mug and set it aside.

Step 2: You will need to create both steamed and frothed milk. Using about ½ cup of the milk of your choice, you can heat your milk if you have a steamer on hand. Otherwise, in a medium saucepan slowly heat milk on medium stirring often. You don’t want to let the milk come to a boil. Once it’s hot, add half the contents to your espresso.

Step 3: With the remaining milk, turn the heat up slightly and use a hand mixer on low to beat the milk. Increase the speed slowly as you go until you see a foam-like texture appear. Add the remaining foamed milk to your cup.
