Default Almost Starbuck's Frappuccino

On local tv last week. FWIW.

Almost Starbuck's Frappuccino
Makes 4 (6 ounce) servings (Note: I think a 6-oz serving of this is a
joke!)
3 ounces hot espresso (or double-strength regular coffee)
1/4 cup sugar (or Splenda)
2 1/2 cups milk (low-fat is OK)
1 tablespoon dry pectin
1 cup ice
Stir milk and pectin into coffee and sugar mixture until dissolved. Pour
mixture into glass filled with ice.
Or pour ingredients plus ice into blender and process on "frappe" for 30
to 45 seconds.
Pectin can be found in grocery stores in the baked goods section. (Try
canning supplies.)

Variations:
Mocha: Add pinch of cocoa powder
Chocolate brownie: Add pinch of cocoa powder and 2 tablespoons chocolate
chips
Rumbuh: Add 2 tablespoons crushed chocolate cookies.

Holman, 2001)
