Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups strong brewed coffee, chilled espresso works beautifully too
  • 1 cup ice cubes
  • 1/2 cup milk dairy or non-dairy like almond, oat, or soy
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar or to taste
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • caramel drizzle
  • coffee beans
  • cinnamon

Equipment

  • Blender
  • Refrigerator
  • Tall glass

Method
 

  1. First, brew a strong batch of your favorite coffee or espresso. Allow it to cool completely in the refrigerator. Chilling the coffee is crucial for achieving the right consistency without diluting the drink too much with ice. For an even richer flavor, consider using chilled espresso.

  2. In a blender, combine the chilled coffee, ice cubes, milk, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. The ratio of coffee to ice and milk is key to the perfect texture, so don’t be tempted to skimp on the ice! Adjust the sugar to your personal preference – start with the suggested amount and add more if you like it sweeter.

  3. Secure the lid on your blender and blend on high speed until the mixture is completely smooth and has a thick, frosty consistency. You want it to be free of large ice chunks, resembling a milkshake. If the mixture is too thick, add a splash more milk and blend again. If it’s too thin, add a few more ice cubes and blend further.
  4. Once blended to perfection, pour your homemade Frappuccino With Coffee into a tall glass.
  5. Now for the fun part! Top your Frappuccino With Coffee with a generous swirl of whipped cream. Drizzle with chocolate syrup or caramel sauce, sprinkle with some crushed coffee beans for a delightful crunch, or add a dusting of cinnamon for an extra layer of flavor. Get creative and make it your own!
