If you’re a coffee addict like me, going without your daily caffeine fix is out of the question. During the summertime however, few people want to sip a piping hot beverage when the temperature outside is skyrocketing. Buying an iced coffee beverage from a local coffeehouse is certainly an option, but that gets pricey pretty quick—not to mention the fact that those frozen goodies are laden with saturated fats, sugar and artificial sweeteners. Here is a quick-and-easy iced espresso latte recipe that I borrowed from the Mayo Clinic. It tastes amazing and won’t ruin your beach body.’
Start by brewing two cups of espresso in your Solis espresso machine. Pour the espresso into a pitcher and add 2 Tbsp. of brown sugar, 1 ½ cups of fat free milk and 2 Tbsp. of sugar free syrup (the recipe calls for almond, but I like hazelnut. And, of course, you can experiment on your own). Add some ice and chill until cold. You can serve yours however you like; I top mine with some fat free whipped cream.
