Yummy in the Summertime!

I've found a new favorite recipe to share with you all, for a yummy summertime drink! The girls and I had a fun time making it and sharing it together, I hope you enjoy it too!

Homemade Frappucino

Fill a glass with (about 2 cups) ice. In a liquid measuring cup mix 1/2 cup milk and 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk. Meanwhile, brew one cup of very strong coffee. Pour the milks over the ice, then add the coffee and whatever flavoring you might happen to have around--chocolate syrup (about 2 Tbsp), or vanilla coffee syrup, or I just happened to have some Starbucks Caramel Sauce on hand so I added a generous dollop of that. Pour the contents of the glass into the blender and process until smooth and foamy. Enjoy! (Or for a really decadent treat, top with whipped cream and additional caramel sauce!) And yes, the girls are sitting up on my countertop! It's always fun to "help" Mommy in the kitchen!
