How do I make a frappe at home?

Making a frappuccino at home is very easy. Simply add the ice, ice cream (or yogurt), milk, sugar (or sweetener), and vanilla paste to your blender. On medium-high speed, blend the ingredients until the ice is pureed and all ingredients are a creamy consistency.

Blending should only take about 30-45 seconds on medium-high. Once completely blended, pour into a glass and top with whipped cream, if desired. Enjoy your frappuccino right away while cold.

Needed Tool: Blender

I use and enjoy this Blendtec Designer Series Blender for all of my smoothies, frappuccinos and protein shakes. It has come to be a very versatile tool in my kitchen, as I make everything from blender muffins and pancakes and even nut butter with this powerful blender.

Blendtec 650 Designer Series Blender with Wildside Jar

This is the Blender I use almost DAILY! Everything from smoothies, to co*cktails, to waffle and muffin batter and even nut butter, this ultrapowerful blender creates an amazing puree every time. It’s very durable and made to last!

A blender can also be used as a milk frother. These drinks are perfect with frothed milk:

  • Chai Tea Latte
  • Caramel Brulee Latte
  • Starbucks Salted Caramel Mocha
  • Eggnog Latte
  • Skinny Peppermint Mocha

Ingredient Substitutions and Recommendations:

  • Milk: for the classic version, I recommend using whole, dairy milk. However, for both classic and skinny versions you can substitute your preferred dairy or plant-based milk.
  • Sugar or Sweetener: for the classic version, I used regular granulated sugar. For the skinny version, I recommend a granular OR liquid sweetener. I use and enjoyWhole Earth granular monk fruit sweetenerorSweet Drops, Vanilla Cream liquid stevia drops.Both are great non-sugar options. Because personal preferences vary greatly, I recommend starting with a small amount of sweetener, and add more to reach your desired sweetness level.
  • Vanilla Paste: I chose to use vanilla paste, as it is contains real vanilla caviar from vanilla beans. This provides a superior vanilla flavor in its purest form. Paste is also less expensive than scraping a single vanilla bean, and you can use an exact amount. I used Taylor and Colledge Organic Vanilla Bean Paste from Amazon, which is pretty economical. You can also substitute vanilla extract instead of vanilla bean paste.
