Back from Holidays - Frappé

This year we went to Greece, Crete in particular, for our summer get away. It was fantastic, great beaches, great landscapes, great food, great weather, all this and you still can visit some impressive archaeological sites.



It has been some time since I posted about coffee, probably because other than being "surprised" by the excessive price of an expresso, nothing of notice happens outside...
Well in Crete I've found what is probably the only good use of instant coffee... meet the Frappé!.
This is how I do mine, I've talked to some Greek friends and they do it a bit differently...
Put the instant coffee (one or two spoons) and some sugar (with sugar you can do more foam) in a glass and add a few drops (or a table spoon of water).

Use the an electric whisk until you a get a foamy cream.

Whisk until the foam starts getting white in colour.

Add water and ice, a straw and you're done... Instant frappé!
