House made Coco Lopez
-2 parts coconut milk
-1 part sugar
Bring to a boil then reduced until nappe

Toasted Rice syrup
1 part sugar
1 part water
1 part toasted rice

Toast rice in a pan until golden brown and fragrant. Remove from pan and set aside
Make simple syrup
You can do a simple or you can go crazy like me and make a wet caramel and cooking just until the sugar is changing colors from white to brown then add the rest of your water.
Add rice back into pan and simmer, taste frequently and cook until it's the flavor you are looking for (tbh I'm not 100% how long this took but not long)

Add coco Lopez to siphon and charge with three (3) Co2 chargers

Mix espresso and rice syrup, then add ice and top with cold foam.

This was originally intended to be a mango sticky rice but then 2 things happened at work we decided we don't need another fruit based drink and 2 the mango flavor overpowered the rice flavor so that version is still a work in progress

This will hopefully be the first in a series of the coffee drinks we're making for the season/as it happens

Tell me your nontraditional drinks you've done 🙂

    This sounds good! Is there a pretty pronounced toasted rice flavor? I’d be curious if i would get a bit more flavor by a quick partial boil of the rice, then drying, then toasting.
