This kind of coffee is only available in Greece. The favorite drink of the Greeks is cold espresso with ice and froth. It is called "Freddo".
Two varieties of this coffee are popular in Greece - "Fredo Espresso" and "Fredo Cappuccino".
To prepare "Fredo Cappuccino" you will need:
- ground coffee
- espresso double
- fresh milk - 50 g

- Beat the milk with a blender until the thickest possible.
- Put ice on the bottom of the glass almost to half.
- Pour the prepared coffee onto it, and on top of the whipped milk.
- Sprinkle with grated chocolate or cinnamon if desired. It turns out very tasty!
Fredo Espresso is the same, but without milk. The cost is 1.5-5 euros. The cheapest option is in the cafe, the most expensive is the clubs and bars on the waterfront.
