Espresso on Ice: place one (or more) large ice cubes (size matters, the bigger the better in this case) in a clear glass (the visual is important!), then pour an espresso over this ice cube. (It is important that when the coffee comes out of the machine, it flows onto the ice cube, not next to it!). The ice immediately "shocks" the coffee, and the result is not a cooled, sour coffee, but a silky, special, cold drink. Recommended coffee capsule: Bean Candy, Liquid Wisdom, El Paseo
Iced latte: A true iced coffee is made with ice and cold milk, not ice cream. Pour 1.5 dl of milk into a glass, add 2-3 large ice cubes (or more if you only have smaller ones), and pour one (or two) espressos over it. It is important that the coffee flows onto the ice, not the milk, for a perfect result (and it looks beautiful in a glass). Recommended coffee capsule: Liquid Wisdom, Dark Harmony, Calm Thunder
E.T.: i.e. Espresso-tonic, the hit of the summer. Put 2-3 large ice cubes into 2 dl of cold tonic, and pour an espresso over the ice cubes. It is important that the tonic is cold and you add a lot of ice, because (let's be honest) this drink is only truly delicious when it's really cold (but then it's very delicious!). When pouring, the espresso should flow onto the ice, not directly into the tonic, to make it truly beautiful. (You can also prepare the coffee in a separate glass and pour it onto the ice from there). Recommended coffee capsule: Dark Harmony, Calm Thunder
Blood Orange Espresso: Similar to E.T., but instead of tonic, pour San Pellegrino blood orange into the glass. It's tarter, yet sweeter than E.T. Recommended coffee capsule: Liquid Wisdom
Coffee ice cube: few people use this trick, but it's very delicious (and spectacular). Make a long coffee and pour it into an ice cube tray. Once frozen, put an orange slice in a glass of soda, then drop in a coffee cube. Recommended coffee capsule: Calm Thunder, Bean Candy
18+: Espresso-Martini: Strictly for adults only, and responsibly! Pour crushed ice, Martini Bianco, and coffee into a shaker. Shake (with the shaker tightly closed) until it feels homogeneous (the ice is no longer rattling). Served in a wide glass, it will be a very pleasant, cold summer cocktail (but don't go beyond 1!).
