Scale
Frappuccino Ingredients
- 1/2 cup strong coffee, cooled to room temperature (or 2 shots of espresso, cooled)
- 1/2 cup milk or dairy-free milk of your choice
- 2 cups ice cubes
- 1/4 cup liquid honey (or agave, maple syrup, or other sweetener)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
- Whipped cream for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare Ingredients: Brew a strong coffee or pull two shots of espresso and allow it to cool to room temperature to avoid melting the ice too quickly during blending.
- Blend Ingredients: Add the cooled coffee, milk, ice cubes, liquid honey, and vanilla extract (if using) into a blender. Blend on medium speed until the mixture is smooth, creamy, and well combined.
- Serve and Garnish: Pour the blended frappuccino into your favorite glass or travel tumbler. Optionally, top with whipped cream and insert a straw for a perfect café-style experience at home.
Notes
- For a dairy-free option, substitute regular milk with almond, soy, oat, or coconut milk.
- Adjust sweetness by varying the amount or type of sweetener to taste.
- Use cold brew coffee as an alternative for a smoother, less acidic flavor.
- Add a pinch of cinnamon or cocoa powder for extra flavor variations.
- To make it vegan, use plant-based milk and a plant-based sweetener like maple syrup or agave.
