This is cool and delicious! It was too hot to turn on the espresso machine so I used instant espresso powder and a little extra sparking water. Just wonderful! Made for the Comfort Cafe July 09

I'll be perfectly honest at first I was very hesitant about the sparkling water in this drink but it gives the frost a nice little burst of energy. My kids and I enjoyed this treat while working hard on "summer" cleaning. Very refreshing and a nice flavor throughout. Made for your win in the Summer Spectacular event in the cooking tag games forum!

I made this wonderful treat on a hot, gloomy, rainy day, so it was the bright spot for the day!!! I made it exactly as written and my 17 yo DS had the other serving!! We both thought it tasted wonderful and didn't cost near as much as StarBucks!! Thanks for sharing the recipe. Made for your win in the Games Summer Spectacular!!
