Here’s how I’ve been making my morning coffee these days–– it’s a DIY brown sugar cinnamon espresso iced latte with fresh almond milk. Why spend $$$ on an espresso machine when my thrifted @AeroPress does the trick for a fraction of the price? 💸
This little guy might not be technically espresso, but it delivers a rich, bold shot that works perfectly in all my coffee recipes. Plus, no wasteful pods or bulky/expensive machine needed 🌍💚
For this coffee recipe, I pull a “shot” of coffee from the AeroPress (I’ve been using Subculture beans lately) with brown sugar and cinnamon, shake it up together to melt everything down and then stir in some homemade almond milk. Throw in some ice and top with more cinnamon and I promise you’ll love it.
Pro tip: Use the “inverted method” on your AeroPress for more control, and grind your beans finer for that espresso-like taste. This thing has changed the game for me and although I still reach for my French press cold brew a lot of the time, this drink is the best treat on days when I need more of a pick me up.
If you’ve mastered your at-home coffee on a budget with minimal supplies, I’d love to hear about your method! Let’s all save money and reduce waste by making our coffee at home more in 2025!
