Frappuccino Recipe
The first step to making a frappuccino is buying high quality coffee. You can buy authentic Starbucks coffee or you can shop around for less expensive coffee if you really want to save some money.
If you can, you should buy the coffee beans. The coffee beans are not only less expensive, but fresh ground coffee will make your frappuccino taste even better!
Once you have your fresh ground coffee, it's time to start brewing! Frappuccinos use double-strength coffee to give it an added kick. This means that to make a frappuccino you have to measure two tablespoons of ground coffee per serving in your coffee maker.
Once the coffee has been brewed, chill it in the refrigerator. It works best if you brew the coffee the night before so that you will have your frappuccino the next morning!
Now that you have your chilled coffee, add three tablespoons of granulated sugar, one cup of milk (low-fat or skim milk works fine), and two cups of ice in a blender. These measurements assume you are making two grande frappuccinos. If you are making more or less, please adjust the measurements accordingly.
Blend the ingredients together on high speed until the ice is crushed and the drink is smooth. Pour the frappuccinos into two 16-ounce glasses and ENJOY!
Caramel and Mocha Frappuccinos
If you want a caramel or mocha frappuccino, just add three tablespoons of caramel topping or three tablespoons of chocolate syrup.

Ingredients
ReplyDeleteYou'll need the following ingredients to make one 16 oz. frappuccino. Double or halve the recipe as needed:
1-2 cups ice
½ cup double-strength coffee (dark roast is recommended)
½ cup lowfat milk or half-and-half
1-2 tablespoons sugar, depending on your sweet tooth
1-2 tablespoons chocolate or other flavored syrup, or caramel
Optional: whipped cream for garnishing; extra chocolate syrup to drizzle over garnish
Equipment:
Coffee maker or espresso machine
Blender
Step 2: Brew Coffee and Chill
You'll need coffee first and foremost.
1. Brew a pot of fresh, double-strength dark roast coffee.
You can make your coffee double-strength by using twice the recommended amount of coffee per pot, or 2 tablespoons of ground coffee per cup.
You could also try pulling a fresh espresso for an extra-strong coffee base!
2. Chill your coffee before mixing up the frappuccinos.
If you don't want to wait for your coffee to cool in your fridge or freezer, you can also try pouring the fresh coffee into ice trays to make "coffee cubes" you'll simply blend together to make your frappuccino.
Or, mix a third of your ice into the coffee before adding it to your blender.
Step 3: Combine Ingredients
Break out the blender and you're that much closer to your frappuccino.
1. Blend all ingredients except ice on high speed for 20+ seconds, until the sugar has dissolved.
2. Add ice and blend another 20+ seconds, until the mixture is smooth, or "just slushy" in its consistency.
3. If desired, top with whipped cream and drizzled syrup.
Variations
You've made a basic frappuccino, but there are so many more to explore!
1. If you don't have a blender, stir in any sugar and syrup while your coffee is still warm. Chill your coffee, then use a mallet to crush your ice cubes and stir all ingredients together.
2. For a tasty low-fat version, use fat-free half-and-half.
3. Replace sugar and milk with sweetened condensed milk.
4. Try different syrups: add vanilla, hazelnut, or raspberry to flavor your frappuccino. And remember a few tablespoons of caramel can add terrific flavor to a traditional frappuccino.
5. Use sweetened cocoa powder in place of sugar and chocolate syrup.
6. Try adding chocolate chips and chocolate syrup to match the popular Java Chip Frappuccino.
