- What if I don't have a blender?
- Put the ice in a clean tea towel and crush with a rolling pin, then shake with the other ingredients in a shaker.
- The drink is too thin.
- Next time use less milk, or more ice for a thicker consistency.
- Can I use regular espresso?
- Yes, but cool it completely before use, otherwise it will melt the ice.
Iced chocolate frappé
Frappé brings the relaxed vibe of Greek beaches to our homes, but this chocolate version goes a step further: combining the stimulating effect of caffeine with the indulgent world of desserts. Not just an iced coffee, but a drink with a silky, frothy texture where the crunch of slushy ice meets creamy chocolate.

Instructions
1
✓
In a small glass, mix the instant coffee with the hot water until completely dissolved.
Tip: A little hot water helps achieve a concentrated taste without watering down the drink. (Solubility).
2
✓
Whip the cold double cream until stiff peaks form, and set aside.
Tip: Cream whips up nicely when ice cold, as fat globules are more stable. (Foam formation).
3
✓
Place the ice, cold milk, dissolved (and slightly cooled) coffee, and chocolate syrup into the blender.
Tip: Liquid helps the blender blades catch the ice cubes for a more even crush.
4
✓
Blend the mixture on high speed until the ice cubes disappear and you get a thick, slushy consistency.
Tip: Air gets into the drink while crushing ice, making it light and frothy.
5
✓
Pour the drink into a tall glass, spoon the whipped cream on top, and sprinkle with grated chocolate.
Tip: Serve immediately, as the slushy texture starts melting quickly.
