How To Make The Famous Greek Coffee Frappe? (Filmed in Santorini)

During warm and sunny days and especially in spring and summer, Greeks prefer to drink the cold Frappe instead of the warm Greek coffee.

Enjoy the video

Ingredients
• 1-3 teaspoons instant coffee, preferably Nescafé, preferably the Greek version
• 1-3 teaspoons sugar
• (for the semi-sweet version (Φραππέ μέτριο), you take the same amount of sugar as coffee)
• Cold Water
• Icecubes
• Milk – (fresh or coffee milk )

To get the best result, you will need one of the small coffee-mixers (μιξεράκι), around 8 euro in Greece. If you do not have this, you can use a shaker to make the foam, but you really have to shake very well for at least 30 sec.! 
You also need a straw (καλαμάκι).

Directions
1. In a tall glass you put instant coffee, sugar, a bit of water (not too much!!) and start mixing till you get the coffee “foam”
2. Pour the frothy coffee into the glass and add the ice-cubes. Add cold water and as much milk as you like. Very important : serve with a straw
