With warmer weather on the way this simple frappuccino is a refreshing and special treat to cool off. Fraps from your regular coffee shop are loaded with pasteurized milk (or soy milk), sugary syrup and all sorts of artificial ingredients. This one has wholesome and simple ingredients that make it a guilt free special treat. (Though I have to admit that I’ve made it twice in two days)
Coconut Frappuccino
2 cups strong coffee
1 cup coconut milk
4-6 cups ice cubes
1/4 cup maple syrup
2 tsp vanilla extract
1/2 tsp stevia powder
Combined all the ingredients in a blender. Blend until smooth. If you feel like it needs more sweetener increase the amount of maple syrup or add another pinch or two of stevia.
