Greek freddo espresso (how to make it at home)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 11 тра 2019
- Greek freddo espresso is a very popular coffee enjoyed especially during the summer.
You can read the written recipe here: www.thehungrybites.com/freddo...
To make it, you'll need two doses of freshly brewed espresso coffee and lots of ice. You can add sugar according to your liking. For plain (sketo) freddo you don't add any sugar. For a medium freddo you'll add 2 teaspoons of sugar and for a sweet freddo you'll add 3-4 teaspoons of sugar. You can also replace the sugar with another king of sweetener.
You get the best results using a frother, but you can also make it with a shaker, like I show you here. Try it and let me know if you liked it!

Τι κούνημα ήταν αυτό 😂
Love The Coffe and the Video editing! I have the same Nespresso Essenza Mini :)
I am on my holiday on Cyprus and drinking Freddo Espresso very first time. Now when I go back to home I will make it by myself. Thanks for that tutorial 👍
That's great! Enjoy!
Τελειο βγηκε! Ζηλεψα, παω να φτιαξω!
Πολυ ωραια very nice❤
Lovely. Tasteful and informative tutorial.
So simple, I'll definitely be making this all the time!!
That's great!
I👍 love the mini shaker. Video aesthetics are great.
Thanks! ☺️☺️☺️
After 8 months in Greece, Freddo Espresso Sketo has become my new favourite. I'm now also trying to make it at home. Very nice video, thanks! I'm still confused a bit about the ice cubes though, like other comments before. What happened to the four ice cubs you put into the shaker? In the final freddo espresso, I only see the additional two ice cubes in the glass, but not the initial four ice cubs from the shaker dropping into the glass. They can't have dissolved by just shaking for a few seconds.
Hi Robert,
Shaking is more than a few seconds (the video is edited). You should shake until the shaker feels very cold. By that time the ice cubes will probably be very small, that's why you add some more in the glass
The coffee comes out (HOT) my friend
Thank you very much I will try tomorry at my Ccoffee shop😍😘
Hello, did you try this at you coffee shop? How did it go?
i wel try tomorrow
Great coffee, just as I drank it in Greece! Thanks :)
Thank you Sophia!
Omg you're video quality are so good and also are you doing well with all this pandemic situation?
Thank you so much! We took early measures here in Greece, so for now it seems that the spread of the pandemic is not very fast, which is a good thing. Currently we are under quarantine, but people are staying calm.
Hope you are well, stay safe! :)
Tasted Greek Freddo Espresso in Delphi in April...OMG. Now I need to make this !!!
cheers!!!
Συγχαρητήρια εξαιρετικό βίντεο!! Αγόρασα κι εγώ αυτή τη μηχανή πρόσφατα και φτιάχνω καφέ με τον ίδιο τρόπο. Οι Έλληνες δεν μπορούμε χωρίς freddo!! 😂
Ακριβώς!!! Στην υγειά μας! :)
appreciate that
Making this later! Thank you! Hope you're doing well :)
Thanks, everything is fine here, hope the same for you :) enjoy!
Very nice video and recipe 👍🏻 but you should add the ice 🧊 at the beginning
Pretty much spotted the vid due to that characteristic paper straw in the thumbnail.
Loved the eco straw reference too. Just wish more Greek coffee shops and customers actually bothered about it.
After owning plenty coffee machines like this one (with capsules ) and being Greek , I can say for sure that if you do not have a professional coffee machine and professional grade ice you can a get a satisfying result. But it is more than nothing obviously. And just a tip, the smaller the opening of the straw the better. You will thank me
Μπορείς να δοκιμάσεις και με Moka pot
Great👌🏻🥰
Thanks!
Ερε μια καφεδαρα που φτιαξες!
Reminds me of peaceful cousine channel, well done!
Peaceful cuisine is my inspiration, thank you!
@@TheHungryBites i thought so :) its greatt indeed and you are pretty good too. Keep it up
Hey great video!
How does the ice break down? Do you let it rest after mixing? Was really curious on the timing too
Thanks! It just needs 1-2 minutes rest after mixing, then you drink it slowly :)
@@TheHungryBites thanks!
@@bramdwikurniaji193 you can also use a drink mixer for faster results
What could you garnish this with?
Fredo espresso is not usually garnished, but you can add a sprinkle of cinnamon or powdered chocolate. You can also add some whipped cream or ice cream 🍦
What coffee machine and capsules are you using ? I have the L'OR coffee machine and it has 3 options small medium and large, i need to press the small button 1 time for each capsule ? Please help lol
H you need 35-40 ml liquid from each capsule. I think the medium option is 35-40ml but you have to check the manual of the machine.
@@TheHungryBites thanks !
Can you tell me the brand and model of your machine?
Yes, it's a Nespresso essenza mini by Krups
μπράβο ρε
4-5 ice cubes in the shaker plus 2 ice cubes in the glass? In total 6-7 ice cubes?
Yes, that's right
Can you use a keurig, or do you have to use a specific machine?
Hi, any machine that makes espresso will do
@@TheHungryBites ok, thank you! 😁
How many ml is the cocktail shaker?
it's approximately 300 ml
ωραιο βιντεακι αλλα ειδα οτι βγηκε λιγο νερουλος στο ποτηρι, πως μπορω να το κανω λιγο πιο πιχτο?
Μπορείτε να βάλετε παγάκια από καφέ
good job. if you dont want your coffee to get too 'watery' try making ice cubes from your coffee, it'll keep it cold n strong
Everyone in America looks at me like I’m insane when I ask for this. It’s so damn easy though!!
Haha, you should show them this video!
@@TheHungryBites I know! Might have to at my regular spots
@10 fps gaming many Americans do black and burnt. We are the descendants of no BS utilitarians, and pleasure seekers. Hence the dichotomy!
Μπορούμε να βάλουμε μια δόση εσπρέσσο; Κ να πατήσουμε την επιλογή lungo?
θα βγει πολύ ελαφρύς!
@@TheHungryBites σε ευχαριστώ για την απάντηση 🙂
The macine how much cost ?
It's a Krups Nespresso machine (mini) and if I remember correctly I bought it at around 80€
What's the name of the shaker? Where can I buy it?
You can search on Amazon, eBay or another online store for "inox cocktail shaker 500ml). Also, you can probably find one at your nearest store with kitchen products
@@TheHungryBites Gotcha! Thanks! I seldom go to bars so I didn't realize it's a cocktail shaker lol
How much espresso, 2oz or 4oz? (60ml or 120ml)
A single shot of espresso is 35-40ml. For a freddo you'll need a double dose = 80ml which is about 2.7oz

Καλησπέρα μπορείτε να μου πείτε τι είδους μηχανή είναι αυτή;
Καλησπέρα, είναι η Nespresso Essenza mini της Krups
I just can’t get mine to froth at all! I’m shaking it loads and loads. I’ve tried using an electric milk frother. Nothing gives me that lovely big foam on top 😢
Very strange... Do you add enough ice?
Also you shouldn't add any milk before you froth the espresso. Only add it after if you drink it with milk
Πολυ καλο
Βάζεις 2 κάψουλες. Ποιο κουμπί πατάς πάνω στην μηχανή; αυτό της μεγάλης ποσότητας;; επίσης αν δεν θέλω ζάχαρη κάνω ακριβώς τα ίδια βήματα χωρίς να προσθέσω ζάχαρη; ; thanks in advance 😊
Πατάμε το κουμπί για τη μικρή ποσότητα (επειδή θέλουμε δυνατό καφέ και όχι αραιωμένο). Ναι, τα βήματα είναι ακριβώς τα ίδια χωρίς ζάχαρη. Καλή επιτυχία!
@@TheHungryBites thanks have a nice day 😁
Do you let the ice melt fully when you shake it?
Hi Evan,
No, just shake until you feel the shaker really cold
@@TheHungryBites thanks!!
Μολις πηρα ενα αντιστοιχο σεικερ, πιο στρογγυλο και "χοντρο", για να κανω αυτη την καφεδαρα και πιτσιλαει παντου 😔 Ειναι ιδεα μου ή οντως δεν κλεινουν καλα; Μηπως να παρω ενα σαν και αυτο στο βινετο;
Δυσστυχώς τα πλαστικά έχουν διαρροή κάποιες φορές, τα μεταλλικά είναι πιο αξιόπιστα :)
Δεεεν ειναι πλαστικο, ειναι μεταλλικο οπως αυτο που χρησιμοποιειτε εσεις απλα πιο μεγαλο θα ελεγα.
@@celiap7945 Ίσως θέλει πιο σφιχτό κλείσιμο τότε ή η ποιότητα μπορεί να μην είναι πολύ καλή
I don't understand... it's okay to use single use coffee pods multiple time per day, but a straw once in a while is bad? I believe we should review our priorities if we want to really make a change. In any case, thank you for the video :)
Of course every little thing counts, and something is better than nothing... it's just that this is the only espresso coffee maker I have :)
@@TheHungryBites Sorry if it was a bit rude :)
@@charlesricard4128 no, I didn't think it was rude :) have a nice day!
Pio apo ta dio patame to mikro i to megalo? Gja ton espresso
to mikro!
I need i shaker😬
Nice demonstration. Btw. using eco friendly straws and eco super unfriendly coffee capsules to balance it :)
Thanks, I actually never thought about the capsules. Maybe there's a way to recycle them?
@@TheHungryBites there is, nespresso stores provide you a special bag to collect them and they spot you places that you can recycle them.
@@Blighter23 you need to pay 14 Euro for this recycling bag. They should have it for free..
@@annalousialou3068 I don't know about now, I stopped using Nespresso for over a year now, but in the past was for free, in the Netherlands at least.
GREEK COFFEE........!!!!!!!
you add the ice too early my friend. let the sugar dissolve first... the heat will allow it to dissolve much faster.
Great coffee, thanks for the video! However, "eco friendliness" requires consistency and the right priorities, going for paper straws but using (multiple) capsules for your coffee is absurd.
As long as they recycle the used pods, there is no problem. I did a lot of research after I got a dolce gusto machine. Using coffee capsules made me more aware of the importance of recycling and am slowly making changes to my house.
@@coffeepoded I can imagine that correctly recycling the pods minimises the problem but from what I understand, only a low percentage of people actually, correctly(!), if at all, recycle the capsules. Also, not all pods are even recyclable, aluminium ones are but not all plastic ones and even aluminium ones, like the Nespresso ones for example can only be recycled by Nespresso themselves. That was the case at least last time I researched the subject. I guess more and more companies try to make their pods easily recyclable so maybe that won't be a problem anymore.
One thing I didn't know however is that these pods are pretty good alternatives if we take into account the energy savings of heating up only the necessary amount of water for an espresso and the actual coffee-beans savings.
@@R8FME The recycling of pods is very hard, if possible at all. In many countries where Nespresso systems are present (both machines and capsules) - recycling is not a thing at all. For example, recently (
@Blin Kurwa Since you are not one us sheep, why don't you share your insights with us? Why does plastic not harm the environment? Would be interested in some references also so I can become wiser too!
Frape
Close :)
Thank you for not putting milk in this! So hard finding directions without milk!
Haha, well... Adding milk makes it a freddo cappuccino (sort of)
λουσαμε.......................
its looks not clean,
Χωρίς βζιτ;
I don’t want to use eco friendly straws. I want to use plastic straws thanks.
Όλα λάθος,🤷🤷🤷
Best served with a plastic straw!
so annoying video ... jeeeee
Not even close I’m sorry… this looks more like cold brew rather than Freddo espresso
Why the heck is that a greek cofee? Thats just a fredo Espresso
Espresso is Italian but they didn't drink freddo espresso
While the Espresso and Cappuccino are Italian, the way to make them Freddo(cold) is first made by Greek Baristas due to their experience With Frappe(Greek iced coffee)
I had ton quit watching. Takeba little longer. We literally had to watch the espresso pour. Please stop making videos.
