Dangerous Starbucks Frappucino Recipe

I tried this recipe today and it was outstanding. Dangerously delicious. Now that I can make a Starbucks Frappucino at home I am in trouble. Best part is... I know what I'm putting in it and it's not bad for me!

  • 2 cups milk of choice (I used almond)
  • 1/2 tsp pure vanilla extract (my homemade vanilla)
  • 2 tsp instant coffee
  • 1/16 tsp salt (don’t omit)
  • sweetener such as honey, maple syrup, or xylitol (or 2-3 tablespoons sugar)
  • if you want a "mocha" frappuccino add cacoa powder or cocoa (YUM)
Homemade Starbucks Frappuccino recipe: Mix the ingredients together in 1 or 2 shallow plastic containers. Freeze. (You could also use an ice cube tray.) Once frozen, pop the blocks out of the containers. Thaw until just soft enough for your blender to be able to handle it. Blend each serving individually, until desired slushiness is reached. Add extra sweetener if needed, but do NOT add ice! It will dilute the flavor. Pour into two glasses and enjoy.
