Chill Out with a Classic Greek Frappe: The Ultimate Guide to Crafting Your Iced Coffee Delight
Chill Out with a Classic Greek Frappe: The Ultimate Guide to Crafting Your Iced Coffee Delight The Origin of Greek Frappe First brewed in Thessaloniki in the 1950s, the Greek Frappe has since become a beloved summer staple worldwide. It’s a symbol of leisure and good times, often enjoyed under the sun with friends, in the kitchen with friends, or in the metro train on your own : But what makes it so special? It’s all about its unique preparation and the creamy foam that sits on top of its icy base. To make a traditional Greek frappe, you’ll need: Instant coffee (preferably a medium to dark roast – Nescafe or Jacobs are great) Cold water Sugar (optional, to taste) Milk (optional, for a creamier texture) Ice cubes Step-by-Step Guide to Making Your Frappe Start with the Coffee: In a shaker or a jar with a tight-fitting lid, combine 1-2 teaspoons of instant coffee, 1-2 teaspoons of sugar (if you like it sweet), and a splash (about 2 tablespoons) of cold water. Shake It Up: Seal the shaker or jar and shake vigorously for about 30 seconds. You’re looking for a thick, creamy foam. This is the heart of your frappe. Prepare Your Glass: Fill a tall glass with ice cubes to the brim. Assemble Your Frappe: Gently pour the foam from the shaker/jar over the ice. Slowly add cold water or milk to fill the glass, depending on your preference. Serve with a Straw: Always serve your Greek frappe with a straw. A plastic
OUR SPECIAL DELI
Mezetaki, a deli founded by Taki Betsakos in Senderwood in 2000, has come a long way since its inception. In 2010, Taki decided to expand the business by moving the deli to the neighbouring shop and transforming it into a restaurant. After Taki’s children, Vasili, Tina, and George, took over the business in 2020, they revamped and expanded the deli, which now boasts over 900 products, with at least 70% being imported.
The deli’s aroma is reminiscent of a bustling little bakery in a Greek village, with the scent of freshly baked spanakopita, tiropita, bread, tsourekia, and loukoumades filling the air. The atmosphere is lively, friendly, and helpful, with staff always on hand to assist customers. Mezetaki prides itself on sourcing the Greek products that its customers request, even if it poses a challenge.
The deli places a high priority on following the Greek Orthodox traditions of Holy Days and celebrations, such as Kathari Deftera, Megali Evdomada, 25h Martiou, Xristougenna, and Protoxronia. The goal is to keep these traditions alive from generation to generation.
Our staff are waiting to help you. We are so proud of our deli, and we can’t wait for you to come and see why.
