CARAMEL FRAPPUCCINO



Caramel Frappuccino image

I love caramel frappuccinos from Starbucks, but they get too expensive. I now make my own, and they are just as good. If you blend the milk with all the other ingredients, it gets too foamy-instead stir it in with a spoon after all the ice is crushed. -Heather Egger, Davenport, Iowa

Tips:

  • To make the frappe ahead of time, prepare it up to the point of adding the ice. Then, store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours. When you're ready to serve, add the ice and blend until smooth.
