Ingredients
  

For the Brown Sugar Syrup
For the Espresso Drink

Equipment

  • Small saucepan
  • Jar with a tight-fitting lid or cocktail shaker
  • Serving glass

Method
 

  1. Make the brown sugar syrup: Combine the brown sugar and water in a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves completely. This takes about 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. Let the syrup cool completely.
  2. Prepare the espresso: Brew 2 to 3 shots of espresso. Set aside to cool slightly.
  3. Combine ingredients for shaking: In a jar with a tight-fitting lid or a cocktail shaker, combine the cooled brown sugar syrup (start with 2 tablespoons), the freshly brewed espresso, and the ice.
  4. Shake well: Secure the lid tightly and shake the mixture vigorously for about 30 seconds until the mixture is well-chilled and slightly frothy.
  5. Assemble the drink: Pour the shaken espresso mixture into your serving glass. Top with your desired amount of oat milk (start with 1/4 cup).
  6. Finish and serve: If desired, sprinkle a small amount of cinnamon on top. Serve immediately.
