Ingredients
- 1 teaspoon vanilla bean powder
- 1 cup whole milk (or milk alternative such as almond, oat, or coconut milk)
- 1 cup ice cubes
- 2 tablespoons simple syrup or sugar (adjust to taste)
- Whipped cream for topping
Instructions
- Prepare Your Ingredients: Gather your vanilla bean powder, milk of choice, ice cubes, sweetener, and whipped cream, measuring each ingredient carefully for the perfect flavor balance.
- Blend the Base: Combine the vanilla bean powder, milk, ice cubes, and sweetener in a high-powered blender. Blend until smooth and frothy, ensuring no large ice chunks remain, creating the signature frappuccino consistency.
- Pour and Top: Pour the creamy frappuccino mixture into your favorite glass. Generously top with whipped cream, adding extra creaminess and an inviting appearance.
- Garnish and Serve: Sprinkle a little extra vanilla bean powder or a few vanilla bean seeds on top for aroma and visual appeal. Serve immediately to enjoy the fresh, icy treat at its best.
Notes
- Use fresh vanilla bean powder for authentic and vibrant vanilla flavor compared to extracts.
- Freeze your milk beforehand to keep the frappuccino cold longer without watering it down.
- Adjust sweetness gradually, starting with less sweetener and adding more if desired.
- Pulse ice and milk a few times in the blender before full blending to avoid large ice chunks.
- Choose a rich, thick whipped cream for ideal contrast against the smooth frappuccino.
