Coffee Smoothie

I ask you, what could be better than a smoothie made with coffee? I love the taste of coffee and I love smoothies. Mind you this is not one of those fit and healthy smoothies but its not too unhealthy either. Made with real brewed coffee, milk, ice, a little sugar, and bit of instant pudding mix! I actually found I didn't even need the sugar.

The recipe is from thecornerkitchen.blogspot

I made this yesterday and it was really good. I want to try freezing some of it to see if leftovers can be whipped up in the blender later. More on that to come

The coffee I used was made really strong. About three times as strong as I would normally make.
