Brown sugar is just sugar plus molasses flavor — so we split the job: cinnamon, vanilla, and a drop of maple extract carry the flavor, and 20 mg of pure sucralose carries the sweetness. Shaken hard over ice, topped with almond milk.

[Sucralose_Dose]

2 × 10 mg scoops (20 mg total)

≈ 1 tbsp of sugar

SCOOP MATH: 1 × 10 MG SCOOP ≈ 1.5 TSP SUGAR // 1 × 100 MG SCOOP ≈ 5 TBSP SUGAR // 333 MG ≈ 1 CUP. Both micro-scoops ship in the 100 g bag.

[Ingredients] — 1 servings

2 shots espresso (or 1/2 cup strong cold brew)
2 × 10 mg scoops pure sucralose (20 mg)
1/4 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp vanilla extract
1–2 drops maple extract (the 'brown sugar' note — optional but worth it)
3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk
1 cup ice, plus more to serve

[Method] — 4 steps

Pull the espresso (hot is fine — see the heat note).
Add espresso, sucralose, cinnamon, vanilla, and maple extract to a shaker or lidded jar with 1 cup of ice.
Shake hard for 15–20 seconds until frothy and cold.
Pour over fresh ice, top with the almond milk, and give it one lazy stir.

[Heat_Check]

Hot espresso is safely below sucralose's ~120 °C limit — dissolving it in hot drinks is fine. The no-go zone is dry, high-heat baking, and there's none of that here.

[Tips]

Want it coffeehouse-sweet? Add a third 10 mg scoop (≈ 1.5 tbsp sugar total).
The cinnamon needs the shake — it disperses into the foam instead of clumping.
Swap the almond milk for 2 tbsp heavy cream for a richer top layer (adds ~100 calories, still 0g added sugar).
