About

The Iced Stoya-ccino is a refreshing and invigorating coffee beverage that's perfect for hot summer days or a quick afternoon pick-me-up. This drink combines the rich, bold flavors of espresso with the creamy smoothness of milk and the sweetness of vanilla and caramel syrup. The espresso is first brewed strong and then chilled to create the base of the drink. Milk and syrups are added to the espresso, and the mixture is poured over ice to create a cool, frothy concoction. Finally, it's often topped with whipped cream and a drizzle of caramel for a luxurious finish. This indulgent treat offers a balance between the kick of caffeine and the sweetness of dessert in a single glass.

Cooking Tips:

To prevent your drink from becoming too diluted, make coffee ice cubes ahead of time and use them instead of regular ice.
Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less sugar according to your preference.
