Cold Coffee(Frappé coffee):
Frappé coffee is a Greek foam-covered iced coffee drink made from instant coffee. Accidentally invented by a Nescafe representative in 1957 in the city of Thessaloniki. It is very popular in Greece and Cyprus, especially during the summer, but has now spread to other countries. The word frappé is French and comes from the verb frapper which means to 'hit'; in this context, however, in French, when describing a drink, the word frappé means chilled, as with ice cubes in a shaker.
When we use filter coffee liquid to make the frappe it's called as COLD COFFEE. There are various brewing methods; In case of hot brewing, sweeteners and flavorings are often mixed into the hot coffee before cooling, due to higher solubility in hot water. Alternatively, syrup (sugar pre-dissolved in water) may be used.
I have used Narasus filter coffee 60:40 level to get the coffee essence and prepared this. The same can be prepared using NESCAFE too.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Method:
- First mix the coffee extract with sugar well and add it to a mixer / blender. I have added honey. Also add chilled milk and water. Some places they freeze the milk into cubes and then add it. Blend well, until froth comes up well.
- Once its blend well take a glass and add ice cubes and keep it ready, as we use blender the froth stays for a short time only.
- Serve it in a glass with 1 scoop ice cream added to it. Adding whipped cream as a topping is also optional. I have added butterscotch ice cream.The above steps are purely optional.
- Enjoy the cold coffee!!!
