Comments:
Although I’m still working on a rating system, I wanted to post some comments on this drink. I may have beaten the egg a little too much, but I wasn’t very impressed with this recipe. You have to make an effort if you want to drink any of the egg white/vanilla mixture along with the coffee. Next time I’ll try not beating the egg white as long, but I don’t know that it will help much. It really didn’t add much as far as flavor. I like whipped cream and some other garnishes on drinks, but the egg white thing just didn’t do much for me.
