Make a Delicious Starbucks Frappuccino Coffee Drink at Home

The Frappuccino didn"t take long to become one of the best selling drinks in the world. The name has even become a "catch all" for a milk based coffee drink in many people"s minds, often just called a "frap." History Starbucks acquired the rights to a frozen coffee drink similar and the trademarked name, Frappuccino, when it bought out the Coffee Connection of Boston, a chain with 24-stores mostly around New England.В  A pretty good deal in hindsight. The original Frap, however, was completely different from the one that Starbucks serves.В В  The name, Frappuccino, is a combination of frappe and cappuccino.В  An original cappuccino is a strong Italian coffee drink topped with frothed milk -- and still served at Starbucks and every other coffee bar. Frappe is either taken from frappГ©, a Greek coffee-based milkshake, or from the local New England term for a thick milkshake, frappe.В  Or perhaps both.В  Cinnabon serves similar drinks called Mochalatta and Caramelatta and Dunkin" Donuts also has a drink called Coolatta . So I suppose this is 4 recipes in one.В  Cool. Starbucks Frappuccino Recipe Ingredients *1/2 cup fresh Espresso *2 1/2 cups low fat Milk (2 percent) *1/4 cup granulated Sugar *1 tablespoon dry Pectin (this adds no taste and can easily be left out.В  What it does is make it "thick") Directions *Combine all of the ingredients in a pitcher or covered container. *Stir or shake until sugar is dissolved. *Chill and serve cold. To make the "Mocha" variety: Add a pinch (1/16 teaspoon) of cocoa powder to the mixture before combining. You should be able to makeВ a week"sВ worth of these before leaving the house for what Monday"s Frap would have cost you at the cornerВ Starbuck -- thusВ saving yourself time and money.В
