iced coffees this summer

Special iced coffees are a super cool way to stay cool this summer … and here are 3 great recipes
 
It’s summer and fair to say it’s far warmer in Italy – the home of Gaggia – than it is here in the UK.

That’s why Gaggia Milano – the Gaggia headquarters in Italy - is using coffee in a cool and very classy way to, well, help coffee lovers cool down.

It’s launched its Iced Coffee Club which means every Friday a new super cool coffee recipe is revealed … and anyone can join the club which you’ll find on Instagram @gaggiamilano.

Short videos show you exactly how to make them so why not join the club and get as cool as they are in Italy.

Here are the first 3 recipes with many more to come @gaggiamilano so why not give them a try.
 
Tiramisù Latte. 
First up is a coffee twist on the classic Italian dessert.

1. Make the first layer by whipping together heavy cream, whole milk and sugar to your taste. Pour it into a glass but make sure it isn’t too dense.
2. Place a few small ice cubes on top.
3. Brew your Gaggia espresso and pour over the ice cubes.
4. Top with a cream made with mascarpone cheese mixed with heavy cream and sugar.
5. Dust with cocoa.
 
Dreamy Orange
If you love orange and cinnamon then you’ll adore this second recipe.

1. Make a creamy layer by frothing heavy cream with a high-quality blood orange juice, adding a squeeze or two of agave syrup.
2. Drop an ice cube in.
3. Brew your Gaggia espresso and pour it into the glass.
4. Decorate with a cinnamon stick.
 
Affogato Rebel
Affogato is a big scoop of vanilla ice cream with a hot espresso shot poured over it but this third recipe gives it a twist by using ice cream bars instead of ice cream.
​
1.⁠ ⁠Put a couple of mini ice cream bars in a glass.
2.⁠ ⁠Brew your Gaggia long espresso directly into the glass.
3.⁠ ⁠Make a creamy layer by frothing coconut cream, then pour it over the espresso.
4.⁠ ⁠Add an extra mini ice cream bar. 

These 3 great recipes are only the start so remember to check @gaggiamilano out every Friday for more.
