Title: Burt's Cold Cappuccino
Categories: Beverages
Yield: 1 Amount

		Double of Fresh Espresso
1	tb	Sweetened Condensed Milk,
		Or to taste
1/2	c	Skim Milk - may use 1 cup
		Lots of Icecubes

Prepare fresh double espresso. Put the condensed milk in a large glass, add the skim milk and stir vigorously -- that condensed milk is hard to dissolve. The amount of skim milk used depends on your desire. I like a BIG glass and use a cup of milk, Shirley likes a smaller glass and uses 1/2 cup of skim milk.

Add the espresso, stir, and fill glass with ice cubes. Use plenty of ice cubes, the colder the drink is the better it is.

Sometimes I mix the milks with a hand mixer. If you have a fairly fast mixer, and you raise it up from the bottom it will incorporate air in the milk and make the drink a little "thicker" and "bigger."

I have used strong coffee, but it doesn't seem as good as when I use espresso. Your milage may vary.

This is pretty much my version of the Iced Viet Coffee I had in Toscanini's Ice Cream place during during the Boston 'Clam Crawl' Cooking Echo Picnic in 1996.
