Coffee for Olympic athletes

Olympic athletes may return home when the games are over with a new coffee of choice. Nescaf‘ frapp’, a caffeine-packed iced beverage served in Greeks caf‘s, is popular among Athenians. The staple ingredient is Nescaf's European version of instant coffee, which is stronger than what timid North Americans may be used to. Dissolving the coffee in cold water and shaking it with sugar, milk and ice, makes a frothy, frosty caf’-style treat. Etiquette dictates that you take your time and sip slowly.

If you want to enjoy a similar treat at home, look for a strong instant coffee. You could also substitute with one of the array of instants coffees available - try decaf, mild, or flavoured!
