Pick coffee beans that were roasted recently. The fresher, the better. Ignore the expiry date.

Make sure to add your espresso right after pulling the shot. Waiting will kill the flavor and crema.

Start with really cold milk. It'll keep your drink chilly and stop the ice from melting too quick.

Use ice that's just been made. Old ice can take on weird freezer tastes.

Drink up soon before the ice has a chance to water things down and throw off the flavors.
