Iced Einspänner Recipes

ICED EINSPäNNER

Steps:

• In a small bowl, whisk together the cream, sugar and salt until thickened and airy but far before peaks form. It should be decidedly thinner than whipped cream and have the consistency of melted ice cream: silky, light and pourable.
• Assemble the drinks: Divide the ice and coffee between two (12-ounce) tumbler glasses. Pour the cream into each glass and, through a fine-mesh sieve or with your fingertips, lightly dust with cocoa powder.

DELICIOUS HOMEMADE ICED COFFEE

Steps:

• Place 2 cups of ice cubes into a 2-quart pitcher; slowly pour coffee over ice and stir until ice is melted. Stir sugar into coffee and mix thoroughly until sugar is completely dissolved. Add milk, stirring just until combined. Stir in remaining 2 cups ice, adding more as needed; refrigerate until well chilled, about 30 minutes.
• Stir before serving. Pour over ice in tall glasses or into recycled serving-size glass bottles or insulated tumblers.

VIETNAMESE ICED COFFEE

Steps:

• Place coffee grounds in a heatproof container. Slowly pour boiling water over the grounds in a circular motion to evenly saturate. Do not stir; let steep 5 minutes.
• Line a coffee cone with a paper filter and place the cone over another heatproof container.
• Slowly pour the steeped coffee through the filter, allowing all the liquid to drip through completely. (You should have about 2 cups of strong coffee. See Tip.) Discard the filter and coffee grounds. Stir the condensed milk into the coffee until well blended.
• Fill 4 glasses with ice cubes. Divide the coffee mixture among the glasses and serve immediately, or transfer to the refrigerator, where it will keep, covered, up to 3 days. Serve over ice.

VIENNESE EINSPäNNER COFFEE RECIPE

Steps:

• Place the hot coffee on a serving glass and add sugar if desired. Stir in a little until the sugar is dissolved.
• In a bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. You can use a hand mixer or mixer with a whisk attachment.
• Gently pour or pipe the whipped cream on top of the espresso. Typically, the ratio of coffee to whipped cream in an Einspanner is 1:1. However, you can still add more whipped cream, depending on your preference.
• Sprinkle chocolate shavings or cocoa powder on top of the cream, if desired. Serve immediately.

EINSPANNER

Steps:

• In a chilled bowl beat the cream until it holds soft peaks. Divide the coffee among six 8-ounce stemmed heatproof goblets, filling them to within 1 inch of the rim, add the sugar, and stir the coffee until the sugar is dissolved completely. Top each serving with the whipped cream.
