I’m not gonna lie; frappucinos are my guilty pleasure. Sure, they’re practically made of ice cream, but we can all agree that they taste amazing.
I’ve been trying to master coffee drinks lately because we just got a new espresso maker and I’m a little obsessed with it.
I love how icy and refreshing frappucinos are, which led me to thinking about what made them that way. I did some searching and most copycat recipes either used ice cubes and milk or milk ice cubes. So why not almond milk ice cubes?
I’m really confident that you guys are gonna love this recipe. It’s definitely a MUST TRY! These frappucinos are:
Incredibly refreshing
Sweetened just enough
Perfect at the end of a hot day
