- Freeze the mixture for at least 3 hours, or up to 8 hours for a firmer texture, raking it with a fork every hour or so to create fluffy ice crystals.
- Before serving, take the frozen coffee and scrape it into shavings using a fork, creating a light and airy texture.
- Spoon the coffee shavings into your serving dishes and drizzle with sweetened condensed milk over the top for that luscious finish.
