This heavenly beverage is a tasty treat I love to make in loving memory (and copy-cat) of
Philz Coffee in Berkeley, California.
I used to frequent their trendy coffee shop and treat myself to their fancy drinks when I was studying for an exam or trying to motivate myself to finish a research paper. I loved ordering their Mint Mojitos and the divine Mocha Tesoro mmmmmmm, oh how I miss it.
Anyway, now I make my own concoctions.
Ingredients:
- Fresh brewed coffee
- Dark brown sugar
- Soy milk (vanilla if you have it)
- Fresh mint (this is essential!)
The trick is to really shake up your soy milk for several minutes to make it really frothy and awesome. Philz served theirs over ice, but I don't have an ice maker here in Copenhagen yet, plus its -2 C outside so I'm cold enough as is!
Directions:
Put your brown sugar and fresh mint into a glass and muddle it with just a bit of coffee for several minutes. Then, pour in more coffee (about half way) and then top it off with frothy soy milk. Garnish it with a bit of sugar, cinnamon, or cacao powder (your choice) and a beautiful sprig of mint.
Enjoy with company :)
