I think I would add less sugar; it was too sweet for me. Next time I will "lighten it" probably to include less sugar and skim milk. It's a 5:1 recipe with sugar to taste-- 5 Milks to 1 espresso. I put your original recipe mixture in a blender and added ice. Lovely. I used semi-skimmed milk but will try skim to lessen the fat calories. THanks for posting! Patty from England

The first batch I made I poured out and had a clump at the bottom, which I discovered to be the pectin. But it tasted great! The second batch I mixed better to get the pectin in, and didn't like it near as well. I will be making mine in the future without the pectin. I also added about a teaspoon or so of Irish Cream syrup which was marvelous! This is a very easy recipe if you have an easy espresso maker.
