Tim Hortons, Starbucks or fresh brew from home. Coffee is a national addiction that is easy to take up, hard to break.
How do you like yours and where from?
I like Ice Capps and Carmel Frapicinnos. :tehe: I've gotten into the habit of making my coffee at home now though since I don't 4.50$ to spend at Starbucks...or the 2.51$ to spend at Tim Hortons for that matter.

I found an amazing recipe for a Frapicinnos :tehe:
1 & 1/4 cups of ice
1/4cup + tablespoon of espresso made with double the water recommended for one serving. [for mine, 12oz of water with 1 tablespoon of preground espresso. package says 6oz of water.]
2 tablespoons of sugar
1/4 cups of half&half
and I add caramel, about 3 tablespoons.
Add everything but ice in a blender, [prechill the espresso] hit blend for about 5 seconds. Then add the ice and blend until it looks like a slushy. [about 20 seconds.]
then you're done. It's amazing.
