    Instant coffee, water, milk, ice. Make coffee into paste with water in the cup, pour milk to the top, put in ice, stir not shaken

      Add your preferred amount of sugar to the paste and shake it vigorously instead, so it makes a think foam. Filter water and milk through the foam and add ice cubes. You now got Greek Frappè

        Love the Greek Frappè! I prefer using a milk frother rather than shaking to make the foam; I always get thicker foam that way. If you do shake it, you should add the ice beforehand. Even better, cut out the ice and add vanilla ice cream instead and it becomes a great dessert!

          For me the milk frother isn’t even enough. I need a high powered frother I can only find in Greece. If you can’t cut the foam with a knife, it’s not thick enough!

      I appreciate the answer (iced coffee is really popular here in Japan). I was mostly poking fun at how someone would make coffee out of ice (like ice tea – isn’t that just cold water steeped in other water?)

        I think I’ve heard of people making coffee and then freezing it into ice cubes to put in different things. You could totally make ice coffee too.
