Who says you can no longer enjoy Frappe's?

Here is a yummy alternative.

I love Starbucks, especially their Frappacinno's. My husband bought me a Frappacinno maker and I love it. I have used it in the past, but never tried to make sugar free, low calorie, high Protein frappe's. So here is what I used. (May use regular blender)

Recipe

Java chip mint Frappacinno

Starbucks French Roast or Italian Bold Roast- 3 tablespoons

1/2 cup of Water. (Mix this and warm in coffee cup ahead of time if no frappe maker, will need to add this once mixed to blender)

2-3 cups of ice

3 packets of Splenda (which converts from 2 Tbsp of sugar)

2 Tbsp of Sugar free chocolate syrup divided. (15 calories)

2 Tbsp of Sugar Free Chocolate chips

(Optional) Peppermint extract ( 1/8 or you can use more if you want stronger mint flavor)

1/4 or 1/2 Vanilla Premier Protein RTD shake, may use chocolate

Topping once blended:

2 tablespoons of light whipped cream or may use fat free, or sugar free whipped topping.

1 Tbsp of the divided SF chocolate syrup drizzled on top of whipped cream

Calories: roughly 200 calories, depending on the products you use. 15 grams protein. I use Fitness Pal to calculate nutrients.

I do a Protein frappuccino as well. I use one scoop vanilla Protein powder, I cup unsweetened almond milk, one tbsp. of sftorani syrup ( caramel or white chocolate or salted caramel or Belgian cookie etc). A couple drops folgers drops and ice. Blend well and yum!

Ooh yeah I forgot about the SF Torani syrups, they are yummy!!!

I just mix the protein shake, hot coffee, ice and whatever flavor I am feeling of the Torani sf syrup! Looooove it!!! Makes me full and keeps me happy!

Oh yeah and damn we are creative!

I do a scoop of protein powder (usually vanilla occasionally mint) sometimes some torani and two packets of Starbucks via! I will blend it if I can or if I am on the road do it in a shaker bottle and pour over ice!

You inspired me. Here was my variation: 1/2 vanilla yogurt, stevia to sweeten, iced coffee (5 oz), ice, Protein powders listed below. Dang it's really good, and big boost in energy.

@@OKCPirate - that looks yummy! I have heard quite a bit about the Genepro. Does it mix well? What's the taste like? I haven't tried any of the Greek yogurt yet, but planning to

@@Dream4tc - mixes extremely well. I put it in yogurt, my eggs, shakes, coffee. Over the course of a day I use about one scoop for the extra 30g of Protein.
