Notes
The toasted vanilla syrup recipe makes about 8 servings.
If you don't have a cocktail shaker, use a jar with a tight lid.
Make sure the espresso is at room temperature so it doesn't melt the ice and so the ice doesn't shock the espresso.
You can use double strength coffee or cold brew instead of espresso.
