My notes
Tips
- For decaf, use decaf instant espresso. The texture stays the same.
- Allulose keeps it softest. Where it is not sold, use a granulated sweetener that measures like sugar and plan on a Re-spin.
- Instant espresso dissolves best. Regular instant coffee works with 1½ times as much.
Why it works
Instant espresso gives a strong coffee flavor without adding water, and allulose keeps the base soft like sugar would.
