Notes
Blend less for a thicker texture or add extra milk for a lighter sip. Freeze leftover coffee into cubes to avoid dilution. Work quickly when assembling blended drinks so ice stays smooth. Try chocolate, cinnamon, or caramel flavors. Store blended leftovers in the refrigerator for up to one day and shake before serving.
