How to Brew the viral "Mont Blanc"
Share
If iced coffee had a glow-up, this would be it.
The Mont Blanc is cold, creamy, lightly sweet, and dangerously easy to drink. It’s smooth espresso, cold milk, fluffy foam, and just a hint of orange zest.
Whether you’re behind the bar or at home chasing café-level vibes, here’s how to brew one properly. Watch the video on our Instagram page for more details.
What You’ll Need
Ingredients
60ml Barth Lane Cold Brew
Ice
Milk (cold foam) or cream
Brown sugar
Orange peel or zest
Cinnamon and/or nutmeg to garnish
Step-by-Step: Brewing the Perfect Mont Blanc
1. Ice + Barth Lane Cold Brew
Fill a tall glass generously with ice.
Pour in cold brew, leaving room for cold foam.
This creates the foundation.
2. Cold Foam the Milk
Cold-froth (whisk) a small amount of milk or cream until it’s light, glossy, and pourable. You can add some orange zest for a citrusy punch and a touch of brown sugar for sweetness.
Gently layer this on top — think soft cloud, not stiff foam.
4. The Orange Finish
Lightly grate fresh orange zest over the top and garnish with a touch of grated or ground cinnamon and nutmeg.
Subtle is the goal — the garnish should lift the drink, not shout.
5. Serve Without Stirring
Let the drink stay layered.
Each sip moves from creamy foam → smooth cold brew → cold milk.
Exactly as intended.
Pro Tips (Trust Us)
Go light on garnish: You can always add more to taste.
Milk matters: Full cream = richest result. Oat = sweet, modern, café-approved.
Great cold brew = great drink: The Mont Blanc is simple, so bad coffee has nowhere to hide. Our Cold brew is naturally smooth and low-acid designed specifically for iced drinks.
Perfect for speed: This drink is a summer service weapon — fast, cold, crowd-pleasing.
