Instructions on How to Make Brown Butter Coffee

Begin by melting butter in a pan over low heat. Continue stirring until you notice brown flecks and a nutty aroma—these are your brown butter. Allow it to cool.

In a glass, combine the instant coffee, sugar, hot water, brown butter, vanilla, and salt. Froth this combination with a hand frother until it is smooth and foamy.

Take another glass, put ice in it, pour in the milk, and top it with the brown butter coffee mix. Stir well and serve chilled!
