Whipped cream

Burt Baskin and Irv Robbins' idea to franchise their ice cream stores
for rapid growth was so inspired that the company's former milk shake
machine salesman, Ray Kroc, adopted the technique to successfully
expand his new chain of McDonald's hamburger outlets.
Ice cream is this chain's staple. So this coffee drink, unlike the
Frappuccino made famous by Starbucks, requires adding ice cream for a
creamy texture and rich taste. If you've got a blender you can clone
either of the two varieties of this refreshing coffee beverage. For
chocoholics bent on everything mocha, just add some chocolate syrup
to the mix.
Combine the strong coffee, milk and sugar in a blender and mix on
medium speed for 15 seconds to dissolve sugar.
Add ice cream and ice then blend on high speed until smooth and
creamy.
Pour drink into two 16 oz glasses. If desired, add whipped cream to
the top of each drink followed by a sprinkle of cinnamon.
Mocha:
For this version, add 2 tb of chocolate syrup to the recipe above and
prepare as described.
Tidbits:
Make double-strength coffee in your coffee maker by adding half the
water suggested by the manufacturer. Allow coffee to chill in the
refrigerator before using it in this recipe.
