I thought this worked out very well! The taste is excellent and it comes out just like a pretty coffee drink you would get in a European cafe. I used freshly brewed espresso and then proceeded with the rest of the recipe. Also,I didn't notice until after I had already prepared this successfully with skim milk that I was supposed to use whole. I thought it was just wonderful using the skim milk and it frothed up fine using a wand style blender. Thanks for sharing.

I have an espresso/cappuccino machine, but lost the frothing tube. Never thought about heating up the milk and then whipping it up in the blender. Now I can enjoy lattes and cappuccino at home again, so thanks for sharing. Also, I added about a tablespoon of simple syrup into the blender with the milk since a like it to be a little sweet.

<p>I am a 42 year old secretary, born and raised in Germany and love to cook! Furthermore I like collecting recipes - I simply can't stop. Since finding Zaar my hobby is an obsession now. ;-) I found wonderful recipes and met very nice people here. <br /> <br />My big hobby is my Thermomix, a great gadget. With its help I do most of my cocking. As it is a blender, too, I really love blender food, as you may see when looking at my recipes. <br /> <br />In my free time I love reading thriller, meet friends and family and go to the movie.</p>
