Ingredients

  • 4 cups brewed coffee or 1.5–2 cups (350–475 ml) cold coffee concentrate
  • 4 cups (950 ml) milk

Directions

  1. If you are using coffee concentrate, add enough hot water to make 4 cups of coffee.
  2. At the same time, heat the milk over a low to medium heat until scalded.
  3. Pour equal amounts of coffee and scalded milk into bowls or cups.

Notes

Steamed milk can be substituted for scalded milk.

The milk can be heated in the cups by half filling each cup with milk and microwaving briefly. A 1,000W microwave oven will heat one half-cup of milk in 50 seconds, two in 60 seconds.
