Those little bottles will probably cost a few dollars, but this version costs a mere fraction of that. The recipe calls for Pectin, which is a natural thickener found in fruits that is used for canning. You can find it in the supermarket near the canning supplies. It is used in this recipe to make the drink thicker and does not add to the flavor. It can be admitted if you don't mind having a slightly different texture." 1/2 cup fresh espresso 2 1/2 cups 2 percent milk 1/4 cup granulated sugar 1 tablespoon dry pectin 1. Measure out each ingredient into any small sealable container. A small plastic beverage bottle works great. 2. To mix the drink, close the bottle or container tightly. Then shake the drink several times, quickly and vigorously. Once the drink is thoroughly mixed, place the bottle or container in the refrigerator, and chill until it is cold. Makes 1 24-ounce drink. Variation: To make the "Mocha" variety, add a pinch (1/16 teaspoon) of cocoa powder to the mixture before combining. ~To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did. -Sugar -- Access the Recipes And More list archives at: http://www.mail-archive.com/recipesandmore%40googlegroups.com/ Visit the group home page at: http://groups.google.com/group/RecipesAndMore
