@@GiovanniAuditore Coffee with rum was so popular in the Austrian Imperial army during WWI what it remained a go-to drink in the post-war countries for decades.

It's instant coffee so it's concentrated. You're making a coffee concentrate by using equal parts water and grounds. It's not like a splash of coffee, it's more like an intense syrup
Thank you I never knew if I used two table spoons of instant coffee and two tablespoons of hot water and two tablespoons of spoons of sugar added a splash of vanilla extract and a pinch of salt and froth it together until it becomes one fluffy coffee concoction and add in a bit of ice and top it with my favorite type milk hefore mixing it all together I learned the best way of making instant coffee😀
For that glass it's too muck coffee, sugar and v.exract. half of the ingredients is enough! And I've been making my coffee like that for over 30 years now. Nothing new! 😂
I’m fully convinced that if you gather the necessary materials and tools, such as high-grade aluminum for the rocket body, composite materials for the nose cone, titanium or carbon fiber for the fins, and specialized high-thrust rocket engines, then prepare the body by cutting and welding the aluminum to form a cylindrical structure, then assemble the engine mount by designing a secure housing for the engine with appropriate insulation and mounting brackets, then allow all welds and epoxy joints to cure completely, then attach the shock cord system by installing a high-tensile strength cord inside the body tube, securing it to a reinforced section of the frame, then install the launch lug or guide rails by attaching them along the length of the rocket for stable ascent, then prepare the fins by cutting them from titanium or carbon fiber sheets, sanding and shaping them for aerodynamic efficiency, then attach the fins by welding or bolting them to the body tube, ensuring they are perfectly aligned for stability, then allow all joints to settle and cure completely, then prepare the recovery system by designing and folding a large parachute, attaching it to the shock cord and ensuring it is properly packed and deployed, then attach the nose cone by securing it to the top end of the body tube with bolts and ensuring it fits snugly but can be released for recovery, then paint and finish the rocket by applying a heat-resistant primer, sanding lightly, applying aerospace-grade paint in desired colors, and finishing with a protective clear coat, then prepare for launch by inserting the rocket engine, securing the ignition system, placing the rocket on a custom-built launch pad with proper stabilization and guidance systems, and conducting a detailed pre-launch checklist and safe countdown and launch procedure, you can create your own functional rocket ship.
Dude missed 2020 dalgona coffee trend Edit: omg my first top comment, this coffee definitely has existed in many different cultures n timelines, but don’t you HATE when creators try to pretend no one’s ever made a viral recipe before to claim credit???
Proud of having never made dalgona. The fun pandemic stuff I did was just booby trapping the house, cutting my own hair, making a slingshot gun, counting nutrient of the food Im eating and tallying up stocks, etc. I truly enjoyed the pandemic
I miss the pandemic era. I learned a lot of things, found great ideas to kill the boredom, dalgona coffee, and even tested positive for COVID-19 (thankfully not too dreadful and deadly because of prior doses of vaccine), but never got hooked on TikTok.
Thank you🥳 I just made this recipe using half the ingredients. It came out amazing👏🏾 Instead of 2 tablespoons of coffee and sugar☕ I used 1 tablespoon of coffee and sugar. In addition, I used matching coffee cream instead of more sugar/coffee☕ Absolutely Scrumptious...on my 2nd Cup without an ounce of guilt or regret 🤭 Looking forward to my 6am jog💃🏾
That sounds way better and I should’ve done that. It taste too sweet with 2 tbsps of sugar and the vanilla extract is strong. I will try this method next time
You're more than welcome🙂 I don't even add sugar or vanilla extract anymore after the above 1st time. I only add my Coffee Cream Flavor of choice since it has it's own sugar☕
As a Greek I was about to get into the comment section to add my insight about this drink. Surprised to find out people already know about Greek frappe.
You dont have to add so much sugar if you don't want to 😊 people don't like sweet stuff, and some people do. Everyone has their own tastes and preferences! I hope you can find a suitable measurement of sugar for your tastes!
Love how dalgona comes and goes from the interwebs. The rest of us were making this back in 2020, except for a lot of Hispanics whose grandmothers made the stuff long long before that.
Frappe was discovered in Thessaloniki Greece in the 1950s and even won an award for ingenuity in some italian food convention. Fredo espresso was also a greek invention. Greeks just love swirling their coffees and adding ice lol
This is what we call “frappe” in Greece! It’s a staple for the summer. We just add coffee milk and sugar , but some times I drink without anything else but coffee. It is great refreshing and very cheap coffee.
I was looking for this comment. Frappes are great! I did enjoy having them with everyone at night. Haha... Before dinner... Which was really late at night.

As a South African, when you say "instant coffee" I think: 1. Boil water in the kettle 2. Put 1 or 2 teaspoons of coffee in a cup (depending on how strong it is) 3. Put however many teaspoons of sugar you'd like (optional) 4. Add coffee creamer or fresh milk (optional) 5. Pour the boiled water into the cup and stir
@@starry_impression - In every coffeeshop I have ever been to they don't even add sugar (other than sugar syrups) to your drink. Two tablespoons of both coffee and sugar is utter madness.
@@rachellestringerYeah I think one teaspoon would have been more than enough, this guy is going to get diabetes for sure. Two tablespoons is a lot, overly sweet coffee doesn’t taste good.

Yeah, I don't go over a Tablespoon for a bigger cup, even when going over 30 oz, it's a good amount for about 24 oz tho and I drink at most one in a day over a long period of time because I drink slow or I share with my hubby. 2 Tbsp is nuts. We don't use regular sugar tho.
I tried this, it tastes amazing! Ended up a little too strong the first time because I frothed the coffee too much and didnt have as much room for milk, but it was still some of the best coffee I've had in a while!
Add the sugar before adding the hot water. It will prevent the hot water from burning the instant coffee. If you can add another teaspoon of room temperature water with the sugar it would be even better!
@@petervos111ifyInstant coffee is instant coffee. It is what it is. However, ideally boiling water shouldn't be used for instant coffee. The intense temperature supposedly could ruined the flavour and aroma. Not that I can tell the difference. I've seen the instruction on some of the instant coffee brands. Though, I'm not sure about adding the sugar part.
Tbh I think he adds too much sugar for my taste too, one tbsp is enough, that said instant coffee being notoriously bitter being balanced with salt is helpful. That’s why regular coffee - single origin, single bean type, uniform grind setting - tastes less bitter as you have more control over it. Re: heat - isn’t warm water not too hot to drastically affect the taste of the coffee
@@LibertarianVisionRussia Yeah, I make iced coffee regularly with instant coffee and don't go over a Tablespoon for a bigger cup. I also add a decent amount of heavy cream and a lot of almond milk. That's generally all the caffeine I drink in a day.
@@benjaminsteele13 Even when drinking coffee regularly I don't go over a Tablespoon of instant coffee for an even bigger cup. Two Tablespoons is way too much... not the minimum. Especially true because instant coffee can have a stronger flavor depending which kind we get. I could maybe go over a Tablespoon with Butternut, Nescafe Gold, or various Japanese brands without it tasting too strong or burnt.
Two tablespoons is an insane amount of sugar to add to a drink. If anybody is going to do this, keep in mind the daily recommended maximum is 30g of free sugar per day. Two tablespoons of sugar is roughly 24g.
I had no idea about any covid coffee or greek frappé. This short is the first i've ever heard of it. So thanks for posting this man, and reaching people like me who live comfortably under a rock. This totally changed my life for the better lol.
How, May I ask , has a coffee changed your life. I been drinking coffee for 50+yrs, I’m sure I qualify. ROFL looks good! And I never heard of this either. 😊
I don't care if anyone's going to look down on me for this, but this kind of makes me miss general foods international coffees! I think that was the brand. The Swiss coffee was my favorite! And I think the French vanilla too. Those got me through some long nights in college staying up for art projects and typing papers! For this here, part of me would want to add in a couple of spoonfuls of hot cocoa powder mix and maybe even some cinnamon! 😋😋😋
My standard morning coffee is instant coffee dissolved in cold milk. Leave for a few minutes and stir occasionally. Add a splash of cream. I usually make it the evening before and store it in the fridge overnight. The instant coffee does dissolve in cold milk, it just takes a little bit longer.
This is what im drinking now, i use half water since i drink soo much! Plus some chocolate syrup i can drink this all day i try to only have one or two 😂 solid food? 😮 whats that 😅
But why not just pour the slightest bit of boiling water to melt it? Your method sounds like it would waste time. 20ml of water won't even be noticeable to matter.
@@ElusiveTy I usually make it the day before, wasting no time. I don’t think it would be faster to boil the water, dissolve the coffee then add the milk in time I’m actually spending making the coffee.
@ElusiveTy add milk first and dissolve the coffee then add hot water, takes like 2 minutes of stirring to dissolve the coffee in cold milk but I make instant coffees every day and putting boiling water in first gives it more of a burnt taste, milk first is the way to go if you want an instant coffee to taste as good as it can.
Been drinking coffee without sugar for a while now and am so grateful, there is no need for it, working on using no milk or cream to really set myself up for better success.
I was at a summer camp and these kids have so much energy that I was always keeping an eye on them, I never had time to make a good cup of coffee. It was black or no coffee. I now drink black coffee. Some coffee tastes better with sugar but I like some coffee better black.
@@emrald9963 black coffee for the win!! I'd always crash out from the sugar after it wore off, can't do it anymore due to working night shift now, not trying to get fired for burning out and smacking the floor on the job 😆😆 Kids at camp nowadays certainly seem like they're dosed up on at least a pot of coffee a day I swear 😆 I can only imagine what it's like to work around them with all of that energy 😰
As a greek person I have to tell you that you are in the right trajectory. You probably need a couple of dozen iterations and you might eventually discover how make decent cold instant coffee.
How do you, as a greek person, make your coffee at home? The recipe he did is basically exactly what I leaned of as a "greek frappe". Aside from the more traditional 2:1 ratio of coffee to sugar.
@@Apollo_despairvanilla extract, salt etc are huge extras. We just use coffee, sugar to taste and fill with water, topping off milk if needed to taste. That seemed way too sweet in my eyes, but I also drink frappe without sugar or milk.
@@IliasMWr I see, I also never use salt and vanilla. Though I fill my cup with milk rather than water since I find milk to be a better base than water.
just made this (substituted sugar for agave syrup and used oat milk instead) and it was SOOOO GOOOOD!! also used decaf instant coffee! thank you!! enjoying my yummy coffee whilst typing this
@@clothar23 of course they use, you just ask for it. In Greece you metnion how you want your coffee, frappe, fredo espresso, etc. So, when you order, you say with milk, or else it's without. Fan fact, in frappe they put concentrated milk only!
@@just_another_bot0110not for every coffee, but because frappe is so popular , a bunch of people want it when going out. It is usually a lot cheaper than other coffees but it is true that a lot of coffee shops abuse it and charge it like other coffees and that’s sad.
Wow, i am now also fully convinced that if you take 2 tablespoons of instant coffee, combine that with 2 more tablespoons of hot water and 2 tablespoons of sugar, a splash of vanilla extract, a pinch of salt, and then froth it together till it becomes one fluffy coffee concotion, add a little bit of ice, some of your favorite milk, before mixing it all together, that i will have learned the best way to make instant coffee. (I had to watch the short 20 times for this lol)
@chihiro_0911 yea now instead you have water flavored coffee unless you chug the entire thing before the ice melts but there's only like 5oz of liquid so it shouldn't be to hard to finish
@@Deivesonfiggyssonsome of the ice will melt instantly, and a lot will melt when mixing.. the coffee is very strong (and hot) and is meant to be diluted.
Save your water bottle fill halfway with water freeze it. Add in an instant coffee stick or two, sweetener of choice & and water shake for one minute, then fill with creamer. Not fancy, but same as result.
Hmm, a protein shaker-type bottle or regular tumbler that you can reuse for this purpose is fine too - I understand that you want to make the washing up and process less of a hassle and simple, but if you want to do this frequently, you can still avoid unnecessary exposure to microplastics while reducing the number of unnecessary cleaning required from the video. But I like your way of thinking.
I think someone once told me cold water or room temp is better for at least a splash. Stir hard to start the instant coffee dissolving, then add the hot water. The cold water offsets the heat so you dont burn the granules, which is often what makes instant coffee taste awful
What I usually do is put the coffee in, put desired amount of sugar, cold milk, mix it very very thoroughly, then put a small amount of hot water, mix again thoroughly then add rest of hot water
I’m pretty convinced this is all placebo. My ex was convinced of this, I would make the coffee both ways and ask her whether I put cold milk in first or hot water. She never consistently got it right
Instant coffee is definitely under rated. I put two scoops with a cup made by my crap K cup machine. Then a spoon full of instant espresso. Fill the rest with heated milk. Good enough for me.
@@bywonline 2 tablespoons of instant coffee at a time in a cold drink that u would probably guzzle in 5 minutes? I get jittery and irritable with just 1 teaspoon.
This is so good. I didn't have a fancy tool so used a plastic bottle an shook it til it whipped. It's so good I don't get it. I use a Carmel macchiato creamer so I do not add any sugar just creamer.
every once in a while this is alright. would add calories for a daily drink so maybe keep it to the weekends. it’s okay to eat sugar in moderation. also saying that 10g of sugar would even remotely increase your chances of diabetes is just wrong. especially if you’re generally a healthy person
Sugar doesn't cause diabetes, saturated fat from animal products does. Our bodies and cells run on glucose, not fat or protein, but glucose. Sat fat blocks the cells ability to draw in glucose.
We have been doing that since ages ago in Greece 🇬🇷 that It's out of fashion in Greece 🇬🇷. Now people are drinking Freddo's. Looks like the rest of the world will catch up in 50 years. Freddo Espresso in Greece is: Brew a double Espresso shot add sugar and an ice 🧊 or 2 or 3. Froth it up and then add ice cubes... Freddo Capuccino is we're you froth up cold milk and add it to the top.
add more coffee and in the end add more coffee and before drinking add more coffee before it reaches your mouth add more coffee and behind the camera add more ☕
I tossed out the last instant coffee I began using after my tinnitus flared up and someone mentioned it could be using instant coffee. Sure enough, stopped using it and shortly after ~ relief!! I make concentrated regular coffee so will see if it works!

Especially true because instant coffee can have a stronger flavor depending which kind we get. I could maybe go over a Tablespoon with Butternut, Nescafe Gold, or various Japanese brands without it tasting too strong or burnt.
Two tablespoons is an insane amount of sugar to add to a drink. If anybody is going to do this, keep in mind the daily recommended maximum is 30g of free sugar per day. Two tablespoons of sugar is roughly 24g.
Wow, thank you, @matthewwilcox7204. This has really put my diet into perspective. I have been adding 4 tablespoons to my weetabix every morning ❤
@@FragileGenetics your dad sells avon
@matthewwilcox7204 I was thanking you for helping turn my life around and this was very hurtful
My mom made this when she was back in university 25 years ago but, of course, not as fancy. Glad to see people still drinking this :)
Same here. I'm from Argentina and this has existed forever. I'm 35 and remember making coffee this way for my parents when I was little.
@MiauMichigan I am 52 and I made it for granpa in the 70's in Rosario
I had no idea about any covid coffee or greek frappé. This short is the first i've ever heard of it. So thanks for posting this man, and reaching people like me who live comfortably under a rock. This totally changed my life for the better lol.
How, May I ask , has a coffee changed your life. I been drinking coffee for 50+yrs, I’m sure I qualify. ROFL looks good! And I never heard of this either. 😊
Same here. This is my first time seeing this
@@ohsuziq3916 to be fair, literally anything and everything changes your life.
Forreal lol
never knew there was a name for this. I've been making it for years. though sometimes I add maple syrup instead of sugar.
How is no one talking about the vanilla extract!? That stuff is potent! Bro needed like... A couple drops not a "Two shouts of vodka" levels 😭
Seriously. The vanilla extract part sent me for a spiral
To be fair it like like real vanilla extract which is not as concentrated
After seeing 2 tablespoons of sugar added nothing surprised me after
@@teedea89that's not insane given the amount of sugar in most commercial products
@@Password.70most commercial products have way too much sugar, so yes it’s still insane
Omg!!! 😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂😅😅😅 that was the best intro!!! And conclusion!!!❤️💘 making it now
I tried this and it was soooo goood! Taste like lattes that I get in coffee shops. It was perfect! Not too bland, not too strong and not too sweet!
I don't care if anyone's going to look down on me for this, but this kind of makes me miss general foods international coffees! I think that was the brand. The Swiss coffee was my favorite! And I think the French vanilla too. Those got me through some long nights in college staying up for art projects and typing papers!
For this here, part of me would want to add in a couple of spoonfuls of hot cocoa powder mix and maybe even some cinnamon! 😋😋😋
They still have them. I buy them. I'm 40 and to me it's fancy. 😂😂😂
@@katharine2435 Ooh, really?! Sweet!
And yes! Definitely fancy! 😂🙌🤗
I totally forgot about the GF International coffee! It was in a rectangular metal tin, I think.
@@miriamofsanik981 Yes! And the commercials were so fun!
Omg they were amazing. I think they're still out.
My standard morning coffee is instant coffee dissolved in cold milk. Leave for a few minutes and stir occasionally. Add a splash of cream. I usually make it the evening before and store it in the fridge overnight. The instant coffee does dissolve in cold milk, it just takes a little bit longer.
This is what im drinking now, i use half water since i drink soo much! Plus some chocolate syrup i can drink this all day i try to only have one or two 😂 solid food? 😮 whats that 😅
But why not just pour the slightest bit of boiling water to melt it? Your method sounds like it would waste time. 20ml of water won't even be noticeable to matter.
@@ElusiveTy I usually make it the day before, wasting no time. I don’t think it would be faster to boil the water, dissolve the coffee then add the milk in time I’m actually spending making the coffee.
@ElusiveTy add milk first and dissolve the coffee then add hot water, takes like 2 minutes of stirring to dissolve the coffee in cold milk but I make instant coffees every day and putting boiling water in first gives it more of a burnt taste, milk first is the way to go if you want an instant coffee to taste as good as it can.
Just made this I am fully convinced. Thank you!
Been drinking coffee without sugar for a while now and am so grateful, there is no need for it, working on using no milk or cream to really set myself up for better success.
I was at a summer camp and these kids have so much energy that I was always keeping an eye on them, I never had time to make a good cup of coffee. It was black or no coffee. I now drink black coffee. Some coffee tastes better with sugar but I like some coffee better black.
@@emrald9963 black coffee for the win!! I'd always crash out from the sugar after it wore off, can't do it anymore due to working night shift now, not trying to get fired for burning out and smacking the floor on the job 😆😆
Kids at camp nowadays certainly seem like they're dosed up on at least a pot of coffee a day I swear 😆 I can only imagine what it's like to work around them with all of that energy 😰
@@mr.whitcraft6322 ☕️
What's even the point of drinking coffee then? That's just bitter brown water
@@_Amarin pure coffee without sugar or cream/milk is actually better for you so don't knock it till you try it 🤷
As a greek person I have to tell you that you are in the right trajectory. You probably need a couple of dozen iterations and you might eventually discover how make decent cold instant coffee.
Frappe
How do you, as a greek person, make your coffee at home? The recipe he did is basically exactly what I leaned of as a "greek frappe". Aside from the more traditional 2:1 ratio of coffee to sugar.
@@Apollo_despairvanilla extract, salt etc are huge extras. We just use coffee, sugar to taste and fill with water, topping off milk if needed to taste.
That seemed way too sweet in my eyes, but I also drink frappe without sugar or milk.
@@IliasMWr I see, I also never use salt and vanilla. Though I fill my cup with milk rather than water since I find milk to be a better base than water.
tf youre acting so superior for lmao
Perfect example as to why I never ask for ice in my drinks whenever i’m out, went from being a shot of coffee to a full glass because of pure ice
I did this and it just gave the coffee a lil more flavor and kick. THE BEST!
I did this for probably two years straight, simple, easy, you can tune it to your taste, amazing.
What if we don’t add sugar will it froth up as well?
yep - i just made this and used agave syrup and it frothed up so much!! the main thing is to make sure you're using hot water :)
My brother taught me to this recipe and it really is the best way❤
My sister taught me this recipe, and it really is the best way
just made this (substituted sugar for agave syrup and used oat milk instead) and it was SOOOO GOOOOD!! also used decaf instant coffee! thank you!! enjoying my yummy coffee whilst typing this
The little face at the bottom right of the glass when he put the ice😂😂😂
is so saaaaad
it go like "バニラエキスが多すぎ :("
Frrr i was about to comment that 😂😂😂
Man it's called frappe. We make that in Greece from the 1970s, 80s.
Last time I checked the Greeks didn't use milk in their version.
@@clothar23 of course they use, you just ask for it. In Greece you metnion how you want your coffee, frappe, fredo espresso, etc. So, when you order, you say with milk, or else it's without. Fan fact, in frappe they put concentrated milk only!
@@ottinannaithat’s super cool I didn’t know that!!
You guys use instant coffee at a coffee shop? I'm sorry
@@just_another_bot0110not for every coffee, but because frappe is so popular , a bunch of people want it when going out. It is usually a lot cheaper than other coffees but it is true that a lot of coffee shops abuse it and charge it like other coffees and that’s sad.
Im fully convinced that no one makes original content anymore and just reposts the trends everyone has already seen for months on end
this is pretty good! i used half the amount of sugar and coffee tho but very nice 👍
Wow, i am now also fully convinced that if you take 2 tablespoons of instant coffee, combine that with 2 more tablespoons of hot water and 2 tablespoons of sugar, a splash of vanilla extract, a pinch of salt, and then froth it together till it becomes one fluffy coffee concotion, add a little bit of ice, some of your favorite milk, before mixing it all together, that i will have learned the best way to make instant coffee.
(I had to watch the short 20 times for this lol)
Dont forget the 'little bit' of ice 😂😂😂
Doing God's work thanks
LMAO same here. Made a really good ice coffee.
A… _little_ bit of ice? That’s like half the cup
He's going by Starbucks standards don't hate on him too hard 😂😂
I mean by the size of the glass and the amount of coffee i think its a good amount of ice, if not itll just be coffee flavored milk
@chihiro_0911 yea now instead you have water flavored coffee unless you chug the entire thing before the ice melts but there's only like 5oz of liquid so it shouldn't be to hard to finish
In America we use the bed of Ford F150 pick up trucks as units of measurement. Seemed like they could’ve used a bit more lmao
@@Deivesonfiggyssonsome of the ice will melt instantly, and a lot will melt when mixing.. the coffee is very strong (and hot) and is meant to be diluted.
That’s how Greeks been drinking coffee for 60 years now , it’s called frappe 🇬🇷🇬🇷
I'm convinced if you make an instant coffee and then throw it away and go get an espresso you just found the best way to have coffee
Save your water bottle fill halfway with water freeze it. Add in an instant coffee stick or two, sweetener of choice & and water shake for one minute, then fill with creamer. Not fancy, but same as result.
Hmm, a protein shaker-type bottle or regular tumbler that you can reuse for this purpose is fine too - I understand that you want to make the washing up and process less of a hassle and simple, but if you want to do this frequently, you can still avoid unnecessary exposure to microplastics while reducing the number of unnecessary cleaning required from the video.
But I like your way of thinking.
I think someone once told me cold water or room temp is better for at least a splash. Stir hard to start the instant coffee dissolving, then add the hot water. The cold water offsets the heat so you dont burn the granules, which is often what makes instant coffee taste awful
What I usually do is put the coffee in, put desired amount of sugar, cold milk, mix it very very thoroughly, then put a small amount of hot water, mix again thoroughly then add rest of hot water
@@Freevo_Lowse that would do it, too! Definitely need to temper cold milk first, so a little bit of the hot water to start is perfect
I’m pretty convinced this is all placebo. My ex was convinced of this, I would make the coffee both ways and ask her whether I put cold milk in first or hot water. She never consistently got it right
Dissolving it in a bit of cold water definitely tastes way better.
Instant coffee is definitely under rated.
I put two scoops with a cup made by my crap K cup machine. Then a spoon full of instant espresso. Fill the rest with heated milk.
Good enough for me.
So preety much greek frappe with a twist
Going to be my go to from now on definitely woke me up better then the coffees I buy
“Little bit of vanilla extract” proceeds to pour half the bottle
Bro's rivaling Starbucks with the amount of ice in there
That much instant coffee would send 30 pre-schoolers to climbing the walls. It sounds delicious!😋
@@bywonline 2 tablespoons of instant coffee at a time in a cold drink that u would probably guzzle in 5 minutes? I get jittery and irritable with just 1 teaspoon.
@@bywonline LOL. I'm a rule breaker.😊
2 tbs of coffee would be a huge increase from my regular 1 tsp
That's just Greek frappe with milk instead of water 😂
I make my Greek frappe with milk anyway.
Yeah it’s frapogalo
The salt killed me
Yeah ig we shouldn't use salt with milk. Isn't it?
Dude just described GREEK frappe 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
CooOoOoFffFe ExpPapppeeRTtt😅
This is so good. I didn't have a fancy tool so used a plastic bottle an shook it til it whipped. It's so good I don't get it. I use a Carmel macchiato creamer so I do not add any sugar just creamer.
Thats a great 50 year old recipe from greece!!!
This is what us Cypriots have been drinking for years😂

10g of sugar, the right way to diabetes 🤸
Funny how most of commenters like you freak out at 10 grams of sugar and then go straight up and eat a cheesecake or snickers
This recipe actually has 30g of sugar.
every once in a while this is alright. would add calories for a daily drink so maybe keep it to the weekends. it’s okay to eat sugar in moderation.
also saying that 10g of sugar would even remotely increase your chances of diabetes is just wrong. especially if you’re generally a healthy person
Sugar doesn't cause diabetes, saturated fat from animal products does. Our bodies and cells run on glucose, not fat or protein, but glucose. Sat fat blocks the cells ability to draw in glucose.
@@LiveYourLife229bro he used 2 tablespoons of sugar, 2 TABLEspoons. Aint no way to modorate that shit
Did anyone also think that this was HowToBasic? I just learned about that channel today and i love it haha
Dalgona coffee?
With a splash of vanilla and salt :)
Dal.. go.. na.. coffee.. 😱😱😱 (ptsd from lockdown)
We have been doing that since ages ago in Greece 🇬🇷 that It's out of fashion in Greece 🇬🇷. Now people are drinking Freddo's. Looks like the rest of the world will catch up in 50 years.
Freddo Espresso in Greece is:
Brew a double Espresso shot add sugar and an ice 🧊 or 2 or 3. Froth it up and then add ice cubes...
Freddo Capuccino is we're you froth up cold milk and add it to the top.
Εγώ ακόμα πάντως πίνω φραπέ. Είμαι out of fashion? 😅🥲
We do this in Greece, and it’s just a frappé! Usually we just do instant coffee, sugar, cold water to froth then add ice and milk and it’s delish!
So late to watch this ugh haha. Thank you I'm going to take this and go watch my fav tv show 🥰🤍🙏🏻🙏🏻
isnt this the covid coffee we were all drinking
it's Greek frappe and has been around for like 70 years
I am fully convinced you just created a yummy coffee way of getting diabetes before 40 😂
Lil bro aint on to anything💀☠️💀☠️💀💀💀
Remove the vanilla, sugar, and milk. Replace with cold water with same ice, and I'm sold.
Thank you I learned this in 2013
Okay, this was amazing!!! 👏👍
I'm fully convinced you just described an iced latte
"Im fully convinced that if you just make instant coffee that you've just learned the best way to make instant coffee"
I just tried this (with brown sugar+cinnamon), and I'm adding this to my rotation!
Favorite type of milk ?! How many are there??
Thank you for the tip I'll have to try that.
add more coffee and in the end add more coffee and before drinking add more coffee before it reaches your mouth add more coffee and behind the camera add more ☕
i made it and it is SOOO good!!
Sounds delicious thank you for sharing ❤❤❤
I tried it! It’s good!!!
The best combo ever ❤️
I tossed out the last instant coffee I began using after my tinnitus flared up and someone mentioned it could be using instant coffee. Sure enough, stopped using it and shortly after ~ relief!!
I make concentrated regular coffee so will see if it works!
Glad you’re convinced!
why are this short’s comments so good compared to the usual short comments
We do this in Greece from before the 70's!
It's called frappe and I drink it for 40 years.
I'm fully convinced that you just shared old news. 😂 This was everyone's favorite thing a couple years ago.
As I saw this I paused it then made it, ITS SO FRIGWHING GOOD
My Greek ass watching this and about 2 seconds in realising he’s making a Frappe…
first bite taste like heaven🤓
