A bigger cup of iced Latte for hot humid days
This recipe is for Iced Latte enjoyers looking for a bigger cup (About 400ml total), especially for those residing in high-humidity countries (I'm from Singapore, 34°C ambient on average).
This recipe aims to create a stronger tasting profile, similar to an Espresso Shot, or as close as it can get.
I was frustrated with how stronger brewing recipes would always have such low Coffee output (40ml-ish). I wanted a cold drink that isn't instantly FINISHED within a MINUTE.
The amount of milk, ice cubes and any sweeteners would depend on what you like, so experiment your hearts away until you're satisfied.
Recipe Note:
- Filter: You can use a paper filter or a metal filter, or pair it with Flow Control/Fellow Prismo/etc

- Prep - Set AeroPress into INVERTED position OR STANDARD position if Flow Control/Fellow Prismo/etc... is available
- Prep - Grind 18g Coffee and pour into AeroPress -> SHAKE however you like until grounds lie flat & evenly (I prefer lightly tapping on the table and into left/right motion)
- Pour 120ml into AeroPress (No pre-heating of AeroPress or filters required)
- Once 120ml is poured, start the timer
- SWIRL the AeroPress for 2 minutes straight | Source: This method was revealed to me in a dream
- If Inverted, simply put on the cap
- If Standard, insert plunger at a 45° angle -> Pull plunger upwards to create a vacuum seal
- Steep until 6 minutes
- Plunge at 6 minutes -> Aim for 20s~30s of plunging (Finer grounds require more force to plunge, factor that in if so). Mix it with the milk and ice you prepared at Step 1
