All I have to say is… move over Starbucks! Depending on the size of your serving glasses, this recipe will make 2-4 servings. One of my glasses could hold 3/4 cup of liquid up to the rim, so I assembled three servings, yes there was one extra, but who’s complaining? The preparation was minimal. Just to see if I could put it together without a blender, I whisked this together in a bowl using a balloon whisk. It was so fast and easy to assemble; I think this would be the perfect after dinner treat for company.
