The Art of the Perfect Homemade Frappe
Craving that creamy, dreamy frappe experience but don't want to leave your home? Making a delicious frappe from scratch is easier than you think! With a few key ingredients and some simple steps, you can whip up a café-quality beverage that rivals your favorite coffee shop.
What You'll Need:
-
Coffee Base: Strong brewed coffee, chilled, or instant coffee powder.
-
Milk: Your choice of dairy or non-dairy milk.
-
Sweetener: Sugar, honey, or your favorite syrup.
-
Ice: Plenty of it!
-
Blender: A good quality blender is essential.
-
Optional Toppings: Whipped cream, chocolate syrup, cocoa powder.
Simple Steps to Frappe Perfection:
-
Prepare your coffee: If using brewed coffee, make it strong and let it cool. For instant coffee, dissolve a tablespoon or two in a small amount of hot water, then chill.
-
Combine ingredients: In your blender, add 1 cup of chilled coffee, 1/2 cup of milk, 1-2 tablespoons of sweetener (adjust to taste), and about 1.5 cups of ice.
-
Blend until smooth: Blend on high until all the ice is crushed and the mixture is smooth and frothy. If it's too thick, add a little more milk. If too thin, add more ice.
-
Pour and Garnish: Pour your frappe into a tall glass. For an extra treat, top with whipped cream and a drizzle of chocolate syrup. A sprig of mint can add a fresh touch!
Enjoy your homemade frappe, a perfect treat for any time of day!
