Directions
Place the espresso in a pitcher and stir in the sugar; allow the mixture to cool at room temperature. When cool, stir the milk and pectin (for thickening) into the espresso mixture until the pectin is dissolved. Place the mixture in a blender and add the ice cubes. Blend for 30 to 45 seconds or to the desired consistency.
Note: To substitute regular coffee for espresso, brew regular coffee once. Then pass the brewed coffee a second time through the coffee machine, leaving the original filter with the grounds in place. After brewing a second time, run plain water without coffee grounds through the machine to clean it before using it again.
