There’s something comforting in routines – especially the ones that involve coffee. This is a glimpse into my favorite morning ritual: brewing moka coffee and topping it with silky oat milk froth using a handheld milk frother. Simple, satisfying, and 100% post-friendly. Whether you're a coffee lover, plant milk explorer, or just curious – you're in the right place!

Postoji nešto utešno u svakodnevnim rutinama – naročito kad uključuju kafu. Ovo je kratak pogled u moj omiljeni jutarnji ritual: pripremu moka kafe uz savršeno penastu penu od ovsenog mleka, napravljenu milkfroter štapnim mikserom. Jednostavno, ukusno i 100% posno. Ako volite kafu, biljna mleka ili ste samo radoznali – na pravom ste mestu!

Every morning, I start my day with a small ritual that sets the tone: brewing a moka coffee and creating that dreamy froth on top using oat milk. It’s not fancy, but it’s mine – and it’s delicious.

Svako jutro započinjem malim ritualom koji mi određuje ton dana: kuvam moka kafu i pravim penasti sloj od ovsenog mleka. Nije ništa glamurozno, ali je moje – i baš mi prija.

Here’s how I do it: (Evo kako to radim:)

1. I pour one small cup of water into the moka pot's lower chamber.

• Sipam jednu šoljicu vode u donji deo moka džezve.

1. I add ground coffee to the metal filter – not pressing it down.

• Kafu stavljam u metalni filter – bez pritiskanja.

1. I seal the moka pot and place it on the stove.

• Zatvorim džezvu i stavim je na ringlu.

1. While the coffee brews, I warm a small amount of oat milk (the barista version – it froths better!).

• Dok se kafa kuva, podgrejem malo ovsenog mleka (barista verziju – bolje pravi penu!).

1. I use a handheld milk frother (the stick type – more affordable than a countertop frothing machine) to create foam.

• Uz pomoć milkfroter štapnog miksera (jeftinija i praktičnija varijanta od velikih posuda) napravim penu.

1. Once the coffee is ready, I pour it halfway into a cup, then gently spoon the milk froth over the top.

• Kada se kafa skuva, sipam je do pola šolje, a preko pažljivo stavim penu od mleka.

Since it’s the Great Dormition Fast (Veliki Gospojinski post), I’m using oat milk instead of dairy – and honestly, I don’t miss regular milk at all. The taste is rich, creamy, and perfectly satisfying.

Pošto je sada Veliki Gospojinski post, koristim ovseno mleko umesto običnog – i iskreno, ne fali mi kravlje mleko uopšte. Ukus je pun, kremast i baš zadovoljavajući.
