Ingredients
Frappuccino Base
- 1 cup ice
- ½ cup brewed coffee, cooled
- ⅓ cup heavy cream
- 5 tablespoons caramel sauce
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
Topping
- Whipped cream, as desired
- Additional caramel sauce, for drizzling
Instructions
- Combine Ingredients: Place the cooled coffee, heavy cream, sea salt, caramel sauce, and vanilla extract in a blender.
- Blend Smooth: Blend the mixture on medium speed until all the ingredients are fully combined and smooth.
- Add Ice and Blend: Add the ice to the blender and blend on high speed until the mixture becomes creamy and thick, resembling a frappuccino texture.
- Serve: Pour the blended frappuccino into a glass, then top generously with whipped cream and a drizzle of caramel sauce for garnish and extra sweetness.
Notes
- Use strong brewed coffee or espresso for the best flavor.
- Adjust the amount of caramel sauce to taste if you prefer a sweeter or less sweet drink.
- For a lighter version, substitute heavy cream with milk or a dairy-free creamer.
- Ensure coffee is cooled to prevent ice from melting too quickly and diluting the drink.
