Copycat Starbucks Vanilla Bean Frappuccino – Here’s a creamy and thick frappe that’s so easily made at home. This one is made without any coffee for a true vanilla taste sensation. Save money too without having to spend the big bucks.
Do you love Starbucks Frappuccino drinks? I do! All of them, to be honest. I have said this many times: I love them, but don’t like paying the high prices for them. On this blog, I have shared many copycat Frappuccino drinks. They happen to be so easy to make right in your own home. Best part, you will be spending a fraction of the cost. This way, you can make an extra large one–or as they call it a grande or venti–and still save money. This vanilla bean Frappuccino has only a few basic ingredients. Believe it or not, this one recipe has 19 grams of protein. So, in my book, that’s a breakfast for me, a sweet one for sure. Whirl one up soon, sit down and enjoy every creamy, dreamy sip. For those of you that are craving a chocolate Frappuccino, you must try Copycat Starbucks Chilled Double Chocolate Chip Frappuccino. This one is my son Josh’s favorite. It’s so easy to prepare, he makes it for himself whenever he wants. So much better than spending the big bucks when you don’t have to. Enjoy them both!
