In Cyprus and Greece, we LOVE our frappe, and this is how to make it if you don’t have the little electric whisk (which is as much of a staple as a toaster in most Greek/ Cypriot households). Can you tell I’m homesick! I’m going home to Cyprus in a few weeks and I’m excited to show you some more of the food and culture :)

Ingredients

Directions

  1. 1

    Add the coffee, the sugar if using, and 2 big ice cubes to the jar along with about 2-3cm of water. Shake for a couple of minutes, quite vigorously, until it has made a big froth.

  2. 2

    Pour it into a large glass and top with ice and as much milk as you like, or more water, or a bit of both.

  3. 3

    As you drink, the froth will die down and turn into more coffee that you can drink. You need to drink this with a straw!
