Why? Because it's the main tool you'll use to make a perfectly chilled, light espresso drink all summer long: the shaken espresso.\r\n\r\nIf you've seen or tried the brown sugar shaken espresso<\/a> or the toasted vanilla oat milk shaken espresso<\/a> at Starbucks, you've probably wondered how you can make it home. We're here to say that making this drink is way easier than you think! All you need is an espresso machine (this Breville Bambino Plus<\/a> is one of our favorites) and a shaker or mason jar with a lid.\r\n

What Is a Shaken Espresso?<\/h2>\r\nShaken espresso is a spin on the Italian shakerato that was popularized by Starbucks. Traditionally, a shakerato is chilled espresso<\/a>. It is made by shaking ice cubs and espresso together until it's chilled and frothed at the top. Sometimes sugar or simple syrup is added for sweetness.\u00a0Starbucks took this drink one step further and added milk.\r\n

Shaken Espresso vs. Latte<\/h3>\r\nAn iced latte<\/a> is a mixture of milk and espresso that is stirred and then poured over ice. A shaken espresso uses the same ingredients but is prepared differently. Espresso and ice are shaken together until frothed, then poured over ice and topped with milk. The milk will swirl and settle with the espresso as you sip, giving you a varied tasting experience.\r\n

Shaken Espresso vs. Cold Brew<\/h3>\r\nCold brew<\/a> is coffee made from beans that are steeped for up to 24 hours to create a very rich chilled coffee. Shaken espresso uses espresso instead of coffee and can be made in about five minutes rather than 24 hours. We have tested and found the best coffee brands<\/a>.\r\n
