Ode to Ice Java

Living in the Northwest mochas, lattes, frappacinoes, whatever you want to call them are very popular here. There are drive up espresso stands every mile or so on your way to work. They're scattered throughout the city. In the cold of winter you can get a hot steamy drink. In the heat of summer it's frosty granitas--something for anytime of the year. If you enjoy these drinks on a regular basis it can add up so we try to find alternatives and make them ourselves. A few years ago we came across this new product, Ice Java from Nescafe in the chocolate mocha flavor. It was the perfect forumla for a quick and inexpensive mocha flavored drink--hot or cold. Just add milk! But like all good things there comes a time when we must say good-bye. They've discontinued distribution for this item in the America due to lack of demand.
