Easy Homemade Vanilla Bean Frappuccino (Print version)

A creamy, coffee-free vanilla bean frappuccino you can blend at home in 5 minutes with everyday ingredients.

# Ingredients:

For the frappuccino

01 - 1 cup (240 ml) whole milk, cold
02 - 1 cup (125 g) ice cubes
03 - 1/2 cup (75 g) vanilla bean ice cream
04 - 1 tablespoon granulated sugar, or to taste
05 - 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste
06 - Whipped cream, for topping

# Instructions:

01 - Add the milk, sugar, vanilla extract or paste, vanilla bean ice cream, and ice to a blender in that order.
02 - Blend on high for 30 to 45 seconds until the ice is fully crushed and the mixture is thick and creamy. Stop as soon as it looks uniform.
03 - Pour into one or two tall glasses immediately. Top with whipped cream and serve right away.

# Good to know:

01 - Serve immediately before the ice melts and the texture separates.
02 - For a thicker drink, use less milk or add an extra small scoop of ice cream.
