Starbucks 'Trenta': How The New Size Compares To Your Stomach
Famous Death Row Last Meals
Friday Playdate recently revealed what she really likes to do with her martini shaker in the hot months of the year. Sure she might prefer to shake herself a smooth, cool martini during the dog days, and children filled afternoons, of the summer. But she uses her shaker in a much more multi tasked manner. She shakes up a nice iced coffee in the noon hours. By adding sugar, ice cubes, milk, cold coffee (either left over from the morning or chilled in the fridge) and a few bicep improving shakes, Friday is able to produce a caffeinated treat that doesn't run her the typical $6 tab at Starbuck's and that will help her endure the afternoon with the children. She also adds that by adding cinnamon or vanilla, or a flavor of your choice, the drink takes on that extra special bit of zing. Plus, after five o'clock the shaker can then be used for its original designated drink purposes.

I was hesitant at first, and it definately stirred up questioning glances from skeptical customers, but the resulting drings were much smoother and more well-blended than just stirring everything together. It helped make the drinks colder too, as we don't do cold-brewed espresso.
