- 1 cup low-fat milk
- 1/3 cup caramel sauce
- 3 tablespoons white sugar
Instructions
- Brew Coffee: Brew 1 cup of strong black coffee using your preferred method and allow it to cool completely to ensure the frappuccino has the proper chilled base without melting the ice too quickly.
- Combine Ingredients: Add 2 cups of ice, cooled coffee, 1 cup of low-fat milk, 1/3 cup caramel sauce, and 3 tablespoons white sugar into a blender, preparing all the key components for blending.
- Blend: Blend the mixture on high speed until it is smooth and icy in texture with no visible ice chunks, creating a creamy frappuccino consistency.
- Serve: Pour the blended frappuccino into two 16-ounce glasses and serve immediately to enjoy the fresh, cold beverage at its best.
Notes
- For a stronger coffee flavor, use espresso or double the coffee amount.
- Adjust sweetness by varying the sugar and caramel quantities to taste.
- Use whole milk or a milk alternative like almond or oat milk for different flavor profiles or dietary needs.
- For a dairy-free version, substitute milk with any plant-based milk and use dairy-free caramel sauce.
- Rinse blender immediately after use to avoid caramel sticking and hardening.
