I think you get the foam because of the milk. We like the foam though, we don't wait for the foam to settled. :-) @MO, this is exactly how we do our licuados almost every morning.

Mine always come out with little air bubbles on top and I need to let the licuado settle for a few minutes before I can drink it. Am I licuando the licuado too much? or is this because I'm using a blender instead of a smoothie machine? or does this happen to all licuados made with milk?

I just had a smoothie on a market in Montreal, good varied fruit, but you needed to pay 5$ (CDN) for the treat. Not as thick as a licuado either.
