1. In a microwave-safe bowl or small saucepan, melt the white chocolate chips until smooth. This typically takes about 30 seconds in the microwave, stirring every 10 seconds, or 1-2 minutes over low heat on the stovetop.
2. Brew 2 shots of hot espresso using your espresso maker, or prepare 1/2 cup of strongly brewed coffee as an alternative.
3. Combine the melted white chocolate and hot espresso in a glass or heatproof cup. Stir until the white chocolate is completely dissolved in the coffee.
4. Add 1 cup of milk to the mixture and stir well. If you prefer your drink extra cold, the milk can be chilled beforehand.
5. Fill a tall glass with 1 cup of ice cubes. Pour the white chocolate coffee mixture over the ice.
6. Top with whipped cream for added creaminess and garnish with white chocolate shavings if desired.
7. Serve immediately with a straw and stir lightly before enjoying!
