Starbucks Frozen Frappuccino Recipe

We loved being able to make this classic at home! If you get one of the sbux reusable iced coffee cups, it's just like the real thing for a fraction of the cost. We included this in a round up of our favorite frozen treats and drinks: http://www.partselect.com/JustForFun/Chilly-Fridge-Freezer-Treats.aspx

If you like starbucks caramel frappuccinos, here are some tips to making something really close at home from somebody who does it just about every day: First, purchase the surprisingly affordable Mr. Coffee Cafe Frappe. You can find it on amazon. This little machine brews the coffee and blends the frappe all in one machine! And even though the coffee goes in hot, it still blends to the right temp and consistency believe it or not. Second, purchase a bottle of the Starbucks Caramel Syrup. This is the stuff they pump into your drink before blending. You can find that on amazon as well, or on starbucks.com, and they also sell it at any starbucks store you just have to ask the person behind the counter. I usually add 3 tablespoons because I like mine super sweet! I also use Smucker's Sunday Syrup Caramel, which you can purchase at any grocery store. I squeeze just a little into the blender and sometimes add some "drizzle" on top. Stay away from Hershey's syrups if you're using store-bought syrups for blending. For some reason, Hershey's syrups froth up your drink when it's blended. It's fine as a topping though. Not sure why, but Smucker's works better for blending. I don't add any sugar because I use so much syrup! :) I always use whole milk because it just tastes more authentic. And I use a medium-dark french roast to make it a little stronger. If I use a house blend, I usually add more than 3 tablespoons for a stronger flavor. The Mr. Coffee Cafe Frappe comes with a recipe book, which is convenient. Highly recommend that little machine! It's also really easy to clean. Not many parts. I usually just rinse out the brew basket and blender jar with soap and hot water daily, and then once a week I take the jar apart (3 pieces) and put it in the dish washer for a more thorough cleaning. Just be careful not to lose the rubber seal beneath the blade assembly when you're cleaning it! I had to order a new one because I lost it. Enjoy!!!

Has anyone tried using the Starbucks frappuccino coffee drinks instead of double-strength coffee? I think that might be easier than brewing coffee!

So good! Not weak @ all just follow directions above (it says double-strength). I used half & half instead of milk! Also folgers/ starbucks coffee. Mmmmm delish 4 ****'s

Very weak coffee taste and I used STRONG coffee. Very little sweet taste. Won't be doing this again.

Been looking for this recipe to try out a frozen coffee drink in my newMargaritville frozen concoction maker. Can't wait to make this wkend!

Sounds good to me,it's next on my list of what I'm gonna make.

I love this! Taste pretty much the same. Everytime I make it though it's really watery :( tastes likes the caramel drink that comes in glass bottles. I tried crushing ice but it's styl not froZenish. Suggestions? P.s smuckers caramel sauce works really well !!
