Lots more instant drinkers than I thought we’d have. No disrespect! Just not my thing. However if you’re going to drink instant, please avoid Nescafé as they’re owned by Nestlé. Fuck Nestlé.

You can add normal sugar and blend it as well. You should try with concentrated (I think that is how it is called?) milk.

Also, fuck nestle, use any other brand.

Greek American reporting. Yes its for old people. When I was a kid visiting Greece in the 90s when the locals would still take naps in the afternoon to beat the heat, first thing they would do at 3pm when they woke is drink a frapee and smoke a cigarette. Often at the local cafe chatting with other villagers. Always Nescafe because of hyper aggressive marketing. Those days are gone, hardly anyone still even takes a siesta anymore. Its all very globalized, homogeneous.

Same as "beat coffee" in Punjab/ India! I'm guessing the name comes from "beating" the coffee since there were no immersion blenders back in the day. Mom would take a spoon of coffee and a spoon of water and vigorously mix it in a steel container. Then top with milk and ice.

The recipe you wrote and the picture is similar but different color from the original. The original recipe after you blend it in the mixer, you fill it up with water and then add milk in the end.
Nice one!

What instant do you use? My parents use Nescafe, and I've trying to get them off that terrorcompany for years.
