The Shutterbean Frozen Cappuccino is Refreshingly Awakening

— August 4, 2012 — Lifestyle
Start your morning off with a refreshing and energy-jolting start with the Shutterbean frozen cappuccino. The icy recipe takes your favorite espresso drink and transforms it into the perfect warm weather dessert.

Having a hot cup of joe in the sizzling summer heat isn't an ideal situation for caffeine aficionados. Using just three simple ingredients, you can serve up a delectable frozen concoction that is easy to make and delicious. The Shutterbean frozen cappuccino is very much like an Italian granita, a semi-frozen dessert that is in-between sorbet and shaved ice. After freezing your espresso in a shallow pan, simply take a fork and scrape the block into shaved pieces.

Top your treat with some homemade or store-bought whip cream, and serve it up to your hungry and tired guests.
