   To get the right brew use 2 1/2 tablespoons of Starbucks espresso coffee packed and leveled to 1/2 cup of water then measure out your 4 tablespoons of brewed coffee. I use a single serve coffee machine with a screen filter to make my brewed espresso.

   You can also use this brew formula in a espresso machine.

    Pour into a tall glass, garnish with 2 tablespoons of Redi-Whip heavy whipped cream. Drizzle with caramel topping.

    Espresso should be used hot, as this makes the blending of the ice even easier and makes it creamier! You can use room temperature espresso also, just use one less ice cube.
