The general process for making shaken espresso is to add hot espresso, sugar or simple syrup, and ice to a cocktail shaker and shake until combined and cold.
Most shaken espresso drinks in the US are then topped with some type of milk.

FAQS
How can I make espresso at home? If you’d like to use espresso in your brown sugar shaken espresso recipe, you have a few options. I personally use and really like using a moka pot. They’re simple to use and small. You can also invest in an espresso machine. This may be a good option for you if you drink espresso often.
What is the best oat milk to use to make a brown sugar oat milk shaken espresso? I’ve taste-tested a wide variety of oat milks, and the ones I would recommend using are: Califia Oat Milk (I particularly enjoy their Barista Oat Milk variety), Oatly Oat Milk (both their full-fat and low-fat varieties are nice), and Elmhurst Oat Milk. However, if there are other brands in your local grocery store, give them a try to find what you like best!
Is oat milk gluten free? You may be wondering, does oat milk have gluten? While oats are naturally gluten free, there is often cross-contamination due to being grown next to wheat or processed in a facility that also processes wheat products. If you’d like to make this brown sugar oat milk shaken espresso recipe and have a gluten intolerance, select an oat milk brand that has been certified as gluten free.
