Homemade Caramel Frappuccino
Prepare to discover your summertime go-to with this creamy delectable pick me up that is sure to cool you down.
This Frappuccino can require a little forethought (if you want to get fancy) or you can bust it out on demand. The key here is STRONG coffee. The coffee needs to be too strong for the average person to drink straight, to ensure you don’t loose the delicious coffee flavor when the ice and milk is added. We like to prepare the coffee at least 12 hours in advance via a Cold Brew method (below) but you can also just make a strong coffee/espresso and allow time to cool.
I also like to add the caramel once the frap is made because I love when my straw picks up the bits of caramel slightly hardened by the ice throughout. Just be sure to stir occasionally to prevent it from settling on the bottom OR just add half before blending and half after.
