If you'd like, try freezing any extra espresso in an ice cube tray. Use two espresso ice cubes in addition to the ice in this recipe. One ice cube is about one tablespoon. Two espresso ice cubes will equal one shot of espresso.Using Silk Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk in place of traditional skim milk in this recipe, saves over 40 calories, 9 grams of sugar, and provides more Vitamins B-12 and E and more calcium.
