Instructions
Brew a fresh shot of espresso using your preferred method, whether an espresso machine or a stovetop espresso maker.
Let the espresso cool slightly while you prepare the other components.
In a blender, combine the cooled espresso, unsweetened almond milk, vanilla extract, and erythritol. Blend on medium speed until the erythritol is dissolved and the mixture is frothy.
Add the ice cubes to the blender and blend again until the mixture is smooth and icy. Adjust the sweetness with more erythritol if desired.

If desired, top with whipped cream and a light dusting of cocoa powder or cinnamon for garnish.
Serve immediately and enjoy your refreshing low carb iced cappuccino.
