This Caramel Frappuccino is a variation of my classic Frappe Recipe. It’s just as quick and easy as running to your local Starbuck’s, but a whole lot cheaper. AND you don’t have to leave your house at all. Win! This recipe is made with super simple ingredients, comes together in just 5 minutes, and is the perfect pick-me-up!

Ingredients Needed:
Cold Water: be sure to use cold water so it doesn’t melt the ice before you serve the drink. Cream: I use heavy cream if I have it on hand, but really any milk or cream will work. Remember, the higher the fat content, the richer and creamier the frappe will be. Caramel Sauce: you can use 1-2 tablespoons of caramel sauce depending on how sweet you like it. The real deal is your best option here, but if you are reducing sugar you can also use a no-sugar caramel coffee syrup. Granulated Sugar: I use 2 teaspoons but you can use as much or as little as you like. You can also substitute with honey, maple syrup or a no-calorie sweetener of your choice. Coffee: I use instant coffee granules or instant espresso powder to give the Frappuccino its coffee flavor. Choose a good quality, great-tasting brand! We love Nescafe. Ice Cubes: helps thicken the Frappuccino for a creamier texture. Whipped Cream and Caramel Sauce: for serving!
How to Make a Homemade Caramel Frappuccino
You have a couple of options when it comes to making your homemade Frappuccino. You can see in these photos that there is a slight difference between the two — the blended frappuccino is lighter in color because of the ice.
Variations on this recipe
Customize it! This recipe can super easily be customized to your tastes. If you like a stronger coffee, add more coffee. If you like it sweeter, add more sugar.
