Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 ripe banana (frozen)
- 240 ml (1 cup) milk
- 60 ml (1/4 cup) brewed coffee or espresso shot
Sweeteners and Sauces:
- 1 to 2 tablespoons caramel sauce
- 1 to 2 tablespoons chocolate syrup
Texture Enhancer:
- 1 cup ice cubes
Instructions
- Chill blender components to enhance the frappuccino’s frosty texture and prevent premature melting.
- Add frozen banana, cold milk, chilled coffee, caramel sauce, chocolate syrup, and ice cubes into the blender.
- Pulse the mixture at high speed for 45-60 seconds until a smooth, velvety consistency develops.
- Taste the blended drink and fine-tune sweetness levels by incorporating additional caramel or chocolate syrup.
- Briefly re-blend to integrate any extra sweeteners thoroughly.
- Select a tall, chilled glass for optimal presentation and temperature retention.
- Gently pour the frappuccino into the prepared glass, ensuring a clean pour without splashing.
- Crown the beverage with a generous dollop of whipped cream, creating a luxurious cloud-like topping.
- Artfully drizzle caramel and chocolate syrups in an elegant crisscross pattern over the whipped cream.
- Optionally, garnish with delicate chocolate shavings or fresh banana slices for textural contrast and visual appeal.
- Serve immediately to preserve the drink’s optimal temperature and creamy consistency.
Notes
- Swap dairy milk with almond, oat, or coconut milk for a vegan or lactose-free version that maintains creamy texture.
- Freeze overripe bananas in advance to create a naturally sweeter and thicker frappuccino base without extra sugar.
- Use cold brew coffee instead of hot espresso for smoother, less acidic flavor and prevent ice from melting too quickly.
- For a healthier alternative, replace caramel and chocolate syrups with natural sweeteners like honey or maple syrup, and add unsweetened cocoa powder.
