Whipped cream (2-3 tablespoons, sweetened if preferred)
Optional: vanilla extract, cocoa powder, or chocolate shavings for garnish
Instructions
Brew the Coffee: Start by brewing your strong black coffee or espresso. Use freshly ground beans to get the best flavor.
Whip the Cream: While the coffee brews, whip the cream until it's light and fluffy. For added sweetness, add a small amount of sugar or vanilla extract.
Prepare the Serving Glass: Pour the hot coffee into your serving glass, leaving some space for the whipped cream at the top.
Add the Whipped Cream: Gently spoon the whipped cream over the coffee, making sure it floats on top rather than mixing in.
Garnish: Sprinkle a bit of cocoa powder or chocolate shavings over the cream for an extra touch of luxury.
Serve Immediately: Enjoy your Vienna Coffee as soon as it's prepared to experience the full flavor and warmth.
