Brewing Instructions


  1. Prepare the cream cheese mixture: In a small bowl, whisk together cream cheese, honey, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy
  2. Pull the espresso: Extract a double shot (36ml) using 18g of finely ground coffee
  3. Steam the milk: Heat and froth the milk to create microfoam with a creamy, velvety texture (around 150°F)
  4. Combine: Add the cream cheese mixture to the bottom of a 4-5oz glass
  5. Pour the espresso: Slowly pour the hot espresso over the cream cheese mixture, stirring gently
  6. Add milk: Pour the steamed milk in a slow, steady stream to create the cortado ratio
  7. Garnish: Top with a light sprinkle of graham cracker crumbs for the cheesecake effect

Pro Tips


  • Room temperature cream cheese mixes much easier - take it out 30 minutes before brewing
  • Adjust sweetness by varying honey amount to taste
  • Make it iced: Let espresso cool slightly, serve over ice for a refreshing version
  • Texture matters: The cream cheese should be completely smooth to avoid lumps
  • Milk alternative: Oat milk works beautifully for a dairy-free version (skip the cream cheese or use vegan alternative)
