Something i really love about Morgan is that she’s not a coffee purist. I swear, in all of her recipe videos, she says something along the lines of “you are valid for drinking sweet milk drinks.” Not everyone likes coffee for the taste, they like the caffeine lol.
Yeah I love that about Morgan! Also (like for me) some people DO generally like the taste of coffee, but like it even better when it's mixed with a bit of milk and sugar. Like, barely anyone likes 100% cacao chocolate but when chocolate is made with sugar and milk and all that stuff it's delicious. So I really don't get the "you're only a valid coffee drinker if you drink it black" I should still be able to say that I like coffee without having to defend the way I drink it.
@@saturn446 in the gaming community this is called gatekeeping. While it is sometimes good to do a little gatekeeping from those who know nothing and try to tell you how things “should” be done, there are also elitists who think they are above others just cause they do things traditionally, purely, or just posses a little more knowledge then others. Guess coffee drinkers have their own problems as well.
i feel like þat’s so common wiþ people who are _actually_ experts / genuinely interested in various subjects - like linguistics : i’m a linguist , and i’d **never** ‘ correct ’ someöne’s grammar noöne who _actually’s_ into cooking would shame someöne for using a microwave meal ’r whatever it’s always þe pretentious people who don’t _fully_ care about what þey’re talking about - like grammarn@zis or rich ‘ foodies ’
Most people get into coffee via sweet milky drinks... and even those of us who mostly drink pourover coffee black still enjoy a little flat white once in a while.
Totally. I feel like many coffee influencers give off the impression that only black coffee drinkers are "true/valid" coffee drinkers. When in reality, if you talk to baristas. Many of them just like working with flavours. And when there's any "omg you wanna add milk/sugar!?" freak-out, It's usually because the person ordered some expensive, specially processed single origin bean that'll taste like less fancy/complex bean, or taste worse once you add milk or sugar, so they're really just crying for your wallet and tastebuds
My dad used to put evaporated milk in his coffee every morning-- it's like condensed milk but without any added sugar. (He's still with us-- he's just switched over to drinking tea now that he doesn't have to get up at the break of dawn 😂)
I'm a now-sober ex-bartender and idk why I've never considered doing the same sorts of things with coffee. I'm such a lush with my food, but have always just french-pressed my coffee. I can't wait to try making these - thanks for uploading 😁!
I would love to see savory/less sweet coffee ideas. Okay not exactly "savory," but I'm a big fan of like rosemary lattes or espresso seltzer type stuff! Maybe more earthy/spicy flavors? Or coffee cocktail/mocktails could be fun to look into since you have a shaker. I also now want to go buy cereal just to make lattes with it. Love these types of videos Morgan- your caramel latte video was the first one I saw from you and I made my own caramel syrup during quarantine
Café Touba from Senegal! 🇸🇳 Coffee beans roasted with grains of selim (similar sort of black pepper) and sometimes with cloves, then ground up and brewed! A traditional West African drink
Omg yes, a coffee using gin aromatics could be so interesting. Tricky to keep the coffee from overpowering the other flavours tho, maybe more doable with a tea or matcha situation?
@@raspberryfawn Steve1989 is another youtuber who does primarily mre reviews. One of his catchphrases is "let's get this out onto a tray, nice!". He's very chill and fun to watch.
I just had a shaken sea salt latte with sweetened condensed milk from a Vietnamese coffee bar and it seriously ELEVATED the iced latte game for me. I had no idea you could use evaporated milk, or even use shakers for coffee drinks
great drink ideas! also, if anyone wants to make the second drink vegan, condensed coconut milk exists but it'll obviously bring the coconut flavor into the drink too
I'm a person who strongly dislikes the taste of coconut but condensed coconut milk (at least for me) does not have that same flavour as other coconut things :3 Especially when combined with coffee and/or spices it is very inoffensive for my tastebuds!
NGL When I heard the first line, I thought, 'lol, that's what Steve would say'. then followed the "Nice" with "HOLY SHIT WAS THAT A STEVE1989MREINFO REFERENCE?!?"
I'm also a big fan of sweetened condensed milk... I don't have an espresso machine but I do like vietnamese iced coffee (cafe sua da) when I get it in restaurants, so I got myself a couple of phins (metal pour-over filters) and condensed milk to make it. However, when I'm in a hurry in the morning I'll just make some instant coffee, and I've found that a scoop of condensed milk (or a squeeze when I can find it in a squeeze bottle) makes a great fast addition to that, too.
For a bit of history, condensed milk keeps longer than fresh milk, so is much more cost effective. Additionally, high quality coffee is expensive, and commodity coffee isn't very tasty. But being resourceful, you can combine the cheap condensed milk with the cheap coffee to make something delicious. Cuban coffee is a similar sort of "rescue coffee" using brown sugar. Recognizing the necessity behind the drinks gives you something to think about, and to be thankful for our privilege to choose.
For spices to pair with coffee, one I highly recommend that most people likely have not tried before is grains of selim. It's a common combination in Senegal. It would work great in the sweetened condensed milk latte in this video, though you might want to run it through a sieve after grinding if you're going to use the powder directly in the drink. I normally grind it and mix it with the coffee grounds when making aeropress coffee and then mix that with warmed whole milk and sugar or vanilla syrup.
I was just about to recommend a drink from Latin America and Spain called a "Carajillo." There's a few variations of it, but the one in Mexico is just espresso and Licor 43. If you can find it in Portland, just shake a double shot of espresso with a single shot of Licor 43 and serve over ice and garnish with a pinch of cinammon. The liquor has a really nice, mellow vanilla and citrus taste that pairs incredibly well with coffee. Also, Morgan, if you do find Licor 43 in Portland, let me know which store carries it. I'll be visiting friends in Portland later this year, and would love to make espresso cocktails for them.
A few days ago I had cheerios oat crunch for a quick breakfast and still had left over oat milk in my plate. I didn’t want to drink it on it’s own and didn’t want to throw it away either so I frothed it and used it on my espresso and was surprised how delicious it was. I didn’t know cereal milk was a thing for coffee but I’m looking forward to trying more because of this video 😊
This is the first time I've commented on a video in actual years because I thought this might be helpful in the case of the sweetened condensed milk. You can weigh the container and measure what you're taking out (it'll be negative of course) instead of weighing the vessel and measuring what you're putting in. Then you can mix with the spoon without worrying about cleaning off excess first, measure things that are a little more difficult to maneuver, and see that you're over-measuring before it ever hits the final vessel so you don't need to go back and take out the extra. May not be perfect in this situation if you drip it somewhere between the container and the vessel but as someone who counts calories and likes to lick peanut butter off the spoon, this is information that I keep in the back of my mind.
the "Sparkling Arnold Palmer" is a great drink. It's actually good with any citrus... like swap the lemonade for orange juice or even grapefruit juice. I was in Thailand and they use Yuzu to mix with cold brew coffee. It was so refreshing! Add vanilla syrup and mint for another twist!
I just tried the cereal milk latte made with Cinnamon Oat Crunch Cheerios.....holy cow, it is phenomenal!! Added bonus: your house will smell fantastic when you're toasting the Cheerios (but just be careful because it only takes 3 or 4 minutes at 450).
i make sweetened condensed milk with almond milk! it's basically tons of sugar in almond milk, and simmer it down until it's thick! you can do it pretty quickly too- im sure it works with oat milk too!
For those of us who are non-dairy or lactose condensed coconut milk is a delicious alternative for sweetened condensed milk. It can be a bit difficult to find sometimes.
Holy crap! Someone drinks coffee the way I do but fancier. I get weird looks from baristas when I asked for an iced coffee that's half coffee and half lemonade. One straight up told me they would not make it. Very nice to see it showcased here but with a fancy twist. Also, the Steve1989 reference was 100% nice!
I had coffe lemonade in Colombia this summer and I haven’t been able to get it out of my head! Thanks for the recipe, it’s good to know it is that simple!
Lavendar and Vanilla syrup with the Sparkling Arnold Palmer is really good. Also, you can make the condensed milk latte as an iced coffee by just shaking up cold brew or cold coffee with condensed milk and ice :)
I highly recommend trying "carajilllo" is one of my favourite cocktails and it´s made with coffee. Not sure where it´s from but we love it in Mexico. It´s basically just an espresso, and a 50 ml of licor 43 shaken and then served with ice. it´s delicioso. Trust me.
Omg Morgan! I tried the condensed milk latte and it is so so yummy. I added nutmeg, cloves, and cinnamon. Drinking iced with oat milk. I think it’s my new favorite drink. Thank you for the inspo. 🙌🏼 ❤️
Daaamn.. just watched a long ass ad about coffee grinders to get here, but it was worth it for the great content. I'm actually not a coffee fan, but your knowledge, passion and humor makes it shine in a different light. Only knew of you from your shorter sketches on other platforms, but this is great educational channel. Thanks for your content!
i don't think we have a lot of recipes, but in russia we usually have a can of condensed milk in our fridge to go with pancakes, and it naturally goes into coffee if you want a little treat
8:16 in case anyone was wondering about this, I'm not sure what the situation is in the USA, but here in the UK you can find Nestle Carnation brand vegan condensed milk! I've not tried it personally but I remember seeing it in bigger supermarkets
All very good! Glad to see another take on an iced lemon coffee drink! I also make the Arnold Palmer style coffee during the warmer months! though, I shortcut it by mixing french press coffee or espresso with about half a can of San Pellegrino Limonata over ice
Oooh thanks for the inspo Morgan! I actually bought a specialty pack of Swiss Miss with Lucky Charms as marshmallows, but quickly realized I didn’t like as much as I did when I was little. Maybe I can try making cereal milk with them, so none of it goes to waste ❤
Something to consider when it comes to adding a frothy head to the top of a drink, dry shake with an egg white included in the ingredients. Doesn’t change the flavor at all but will increase that frothiness! This is done in lots of cocktails 😊 anywho back to watching this great video.

Sweetened condensed coconut milk is a great vegan alternative and it is very easy to find at most US supermarkets now both in the canned/boxed milk area as well as in the "international" area. You can make a really delicious caramel with it as well.
@@ticklishpineapples Just like regular sugar-based caramel, you can do just coconut milk but also add sugar, salt, butter, etc. to make it more to your liking. There are lots of varying recipes out there for it. I would say go with the one that seems most similar to a regular caramel you would like.
Omg, I literally didn't understand a half what you said bc you speak so fast and my English level is low, but I loved your way to talk, your mood, your vibe, all of youuuu
Sweetened condensed oat milk is pretty good too! I tried condensed coconut recently too but it had separated a bunch and I wasn't a huge fan. The oat is pretty close in texture to dairy 👍
Coffee is amazing... do you have a coffee-nerd friend who you can do a tasting/cupping with so you can learn what you like? Most people get into coffee through sweet lattes, but I do encourage you to try a range of good coffees prepared black by somebody who knows what they're doing. When you decide to spend money on coffee, start with good beans and a good grinder. A £6.50 plastic V60 and a cheap electric kettle will produce great results if you've got a good burr grinder and tasty coffee.
As a kid I would keep the milk jug with me to carefully ration milk into my bowl as I ate the cereal. I'd try to eat it as quickly as possible so it wouldn't get soggy or dissolve all the sugar off the cereal and leave me with the dreaded cereal milk 😂 Even as a kid who loved sugar I found it way too sweet! Strange to think its a coffee drink. That aside - super strong, refreshing Vietnamese iced coffee with a spoon of condensed milk is deeeeeelicious.
I used to work at Starbucks, and at home I always shake the espresso and aerate the cold milk with a frother to simulate the shaken espresso drink. None of the indie cafes I've worked in had a shaker sadly, and I've never considered shaking the entire latte so that I must try today!

Just made the shaken vanilla latte and oh my word. I would have never thought to shake it up but my word does it make the final product so much more smooth! 😍
I work at a café, but I only recently started having iced coffee sometimes. What I'll do is put syrup in the glass and then mix the espresso and roll it between the cup and the glass a few times to mix and cool a little. Then ice, then milk. It doesn't look like there's that much dilution, but also milk is for dilution. I just wouldn't really notice unless it was a huge amount

When I was in Bali, they had ginger coffee. It’s soo delicious. I bought some pure ground powdered ginger from Amazon and add it to my coffee in the morning with half n half, and every once in a while a little sweetener, but it’s soo good! I’m Puerto Rican and we love us some coconut. Which also is delicious in coffee! 😉😁
The little marshmallows in cereal are actually called “marbits” while the non-marshmallow parts are called “sweeties”. Funny names but I guess every field has its own terminology!
Had no idea as to who you were when I found this video, but was immediately drawn to your look, followed you, then you said you made lattes, and it clicked: I already follow you on TikTok. Had no idea about your channel. Needless to say, I'm happy I came across this. Definitely subbed. Thanks for the video.
My favorite local cafe, Speakeasy in Bryant, Arkansas, serves a sweetened condensed milk latte called a Cuban. It's my favorite latte style drink ever. I will be saving this video to try these drinks when I get my espresso machine.
i always find myself watching your videos but never committing to making the drinks lol just wanted to say that your voice is very soothing and sometimes i have your videos playing while i work or just to fill in the silence :))
A lemonade suggestion: you can make a very good lemonade syrup by dissolving lemon oleo saccharum in lemon juice (I like a cup or two of sugar for the zest and juice of 6 lemons), goes great in sparkling water, so I imagine adding some cold brew as well would be fabulous!
just putting this out there, lavender syrup, honey, and stevia tastes just like frootloops! I discovered this in my barista days, I especially liked this flavor concoction with an iced matcha!
I'm so here for the cold brew/coffee & lemonade. I work at Starbucks and make myself lemonade with 4 shots of espresso on top. So good! Most baristas I order from are either confused, disgusted, or curious about it. I've converted a few people though. I'll have to try adding honey next time, sounds super good! Also, I love all of these drink ideas, I will have to try them all!
I do the sweetened condensed milk/ baking spices latte but with a little sprinkle of cayenne for some extra warmth and it is 👌 *chef's kiss* I also like to stick my sweetened condensed milk in the freezer so it gets to like a thick honey consistency so that I can twirl it around my spoon before stirring it in to hot coffee. Less accidental dripage and mess that way.

ooo new kitchen making its debut! congrats on the move, glad to see you're still the same, spilling drinks and plucking cats off the counter lol. thank you for the inspiration~
I try subscribing barista youtubers based on how the introduction goes, she passed the check lmfao. I knew her already on tiktok and this was the 1st video I clicked. She's my roll model as a barista.
Not sure if anyone has already mentioned this, but you can get condensed milk made with coconut milk. It's not quite the same texture and flavour as the original but can be used pretty effectively if you can't have dairy!
tip for condensed milk: you can keep it in the fridge to make it easy to spoon out, and you can get plastic covers for cans in the pet food isle for very cheap
Amazing drinks, thank you, will try one of them tomorrow! From a physics perspective, I have to say, I do not unterstand why more ice will melt, if you add the ingredients in different orders for the case where all ingredients are thoroughly mixed in the end. The total energy of the system remains the same, i.e., if you first mix in the espresso, more ice will melt initially, but then the espresso will have cooled down to 0°C and the milk afterwards will melt less ice, because it is additionally cooled by the now chilled espresso.
They sell sweetened condensed milk in a sqeezy container. Makes portioning it out a lot easier. The squeezy container is also resealable. Thought it could be useful.
omg first you said let's get this out on the tray and my jaw dropped then then you said it nice. and it made my day omg lol i'm still laughing and smiling about that lol
I don’t even drink coffee.. I just watch you for ASMR bc you’re super relaxing. Absolutely love the videos where you’re making drinks as well!! The sounds are amazing
Thank you so much! Never done any coffee drinks at home but instant coffee, and I think now it's finally time to experiment! So happy to watch your new videos 😍
Interesting about the cereal milk idea. I have often added my left-over cereal milk to a coffee just to use it up. It's especially good with an oaty cereal i find. Never tried Lucky Charms though! Now i want to go get some cocoa pops and make a mocha! Hahaha
You should go to Ember coffee co in Big lake, Minnesota. It's a small coffee shop, but with exceptionally amazing coffee and products, I think you would find it very worthwhile!
