Iced Cappuccino's

One of my favorite things about summer are iced cappuccino's!!! I have one every morning, they are so refreshing and the perfect way to start the day. If you don't like caffeine you can always get decaf or half cafe....

The best ones in LA are at Joan's on Third & Urth Cafe. If you have never been to either of these Joan's on Third is a gourmet shop/cafe. They make the best Chinese chicken salad and peanut butter cupcakes. They make ready made food to go and are open from 8am-8pm.....

Urth Cafe is another great cafe which has the best homemade soups and on Saturday mornings they make these spinach croissants that are amazing...they use fresh spinach. FYI they are also famous for their spanish lattes...



If you choose to make one at home I would recommend using Danesi espresso which you can buy at Joan's on Third, Surface (restaurant supply store in culver city) or online...the best sight is

I always have mine with not fat milk and no sugar but you can always add cocoa powder or simple syrup.

To make simple syrup:

Ingredients:
1 cup sugar
1 cup water

Directions:
In a small saucepan, bring sugar and water to a boil; simmer until the sugar is dissolved, 3 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool completely.

Enjoy...... Jamielyn xoxo
