Chilled espresso over ice, crowned with a thick, barely sweet cap of whipped cream, a cold reinvention of the classic Viennese coffee that Google Trends marked as peaking in summer 2026. Try it with a matcha or hojicha shot in place of the espresso for the variations also trending. This reference files it under Austrian non-alcoholic drink: made without cooking, rated easy and about 10 minutes start to finish.
