Easy Vegan Coffee Frappe

Now that we are all deeply entrenched in NaNo, I thought a little vegan-friendly caffeine would be in order. And it's quick, too, which is always a plus when you are pounding those keys!

Ingredients:

• 1 cup vanilla non-dairy milk or soy milk (any flavour)
• 1-1/2 teaspoon of instant coffee
• sugar, to taste
• 3 ice cubes
• vegan chocolate syrup, to taste (optional)

Directions:

In a blender, place 1/4 cup of the non-dairy milk, instant coffee, sugar, chocolate syrup, and ice cubes. Blend for about 20 seconds, or until it becomes frothy. Pour into a glass and add the remainder of the non-dairy milk. You can also add more ice, or even some vegan ice cream to make a coffee float (mmmmm). Best with a straw!
