Notes
A high powered blender will produce a creamier result, but a normal blender should also work. Blend very well until you get a homogeneous mixture.
Sweetener: Use whatever sweetener you normally use for your coffee, and the same amount.
Instead of espresso you can use 1 cup of strong iced coffee and reduce the ice cubes to half a cup.
Use a strong type of coffee for this recipe or the taste won't be like the original.
