1 great blender
1-1 1/2 trays ice cubes
Nescafe Ice Java syrup
Ice cream
Milk
Leftover coffee
Simply put, using the above ingredients in moderation will create the ultimate iced cappuccino. Seriously. It has been said that these trump those sold by the leading chain in Canada. It is true, that in the middle of summer it's hard to find the perfect slushy cappuccino, due to the constant use at these particular restaurants.... when you make these at home, you can adjust it to absolute perfection.
Amounts? Depends how many you want! For 2 people with big cups, I start with one full tray of ice cubes. Then I add the leftover coffee (the more, the merrier, if you get my drift) (prob. no more than a cup) Next, blend a bit to break up the big chunks. Add 2 tbsp. of syrup, some ice cream and milk. Then, as I said, adjust accordingly upon sampling.
This is truly a bliss-drink. It is not to be gulped in a desperate hurry, lest you forget the magic of this stress-reliever and heat-buster. It is satisfying and delicious.
