I have never liked hot coffee in the heat of the summer, which is practically year round here in Florida. When it;s hot and I want coffee, I love frappuccinos, with some chocolate of course.
This recipe was developed for Babble.com.
Yield: Serves 4
4 shots espresso
1 cup milk
2 cups ice
1/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons chocolate syrup, plus more for topping

1. Add warm espresso and sugar to blender. Blend until combined. Add milk, ice and chocolate syrup. Blend on high until ice is fine.
2. Serve topped with whipped cream and chocolate syrup.
