Ingredients
- 1/3 tbsp white chocolate sauce
- 1/3 tbsp banana syrup
- 1/3 tbsp hazelnut syrup (or substitute with butter pecan syrup)
- 1–2 shots of freshly brewed espresso
- 7 Brew Smooth Mix (or any other brand’s half-and-half, which is a mix of cream and milk)
- Ice cubes
Equipment Needed
- Espresso machine or coffee maker with espresso function
- 16 oz glass or tumbler
- Measuring spoons
- Milk frother (optional, for a creamier texture)
- Spoon or stirrer
Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Brew the Espresso
- Start by brewing 1–2 shots of espresso using your espresso machine or coffee maker.
- If you prefer a stronger coffee flavor, opt for two shots. For a milder taste, stick to one shot.
2. Add the Syrups and White Chocolate Sauce
- In your glass or tumbler, combine 1/3 tablespoon of white chocolate sauce, 1/3 tablespoon of banana syrup, and 1/3 tablespoon of hazelnut syrup (or butter pecan syrup if you prefer).
- Stir the syrups together to blend the flavors evenly.
3. Pour in the Espresso
- Carefully pour the freshly brewed espresso over the syrup mixture.
- Stir gently to ensure the espresso picks up the sweet, nutty, and banana flavors.
4. Add the 7 Brew Smooth Mix (or Half-and-Half)
- Fill the rest of your glass with 7 Brew Smooth Mix or a half-and-half alternative.
- Leave about 1 inch of space at the top of the glass to avoid overflow when adding ice.
- For an extra creamy touch, you can froth the half-and-half before pouring it into your drink.
5. Add Ice Cubes
- Drop a handful of ice cubes into the glass to chill the drink and give it a refreshing edge.
- Adjust the amount of ice to your preference.
6. Stir and Serve
- Use a spoon or stirrer to mix the drink thoroughly, ensuring the flavors are evenly distributed.
- Garnish with a drizzle of white chocolate sauce on top if desired for an added flair.
Pro Tips
- Butter Pecan Alternative: Many people rave about substituting hazelnut syrup with butter pecan syrup for an even richer, nuttier flavor. Give it a try and see which version you love most!
- Customization: Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less syrup according to your taste.
- Hot Version: Warm the half-and-half and skip the ice cubes to enjoy this breve as a cozy hot beverage.
