Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup ice
- 1/2 cup milk (whole, skim, or dairy-free alternative)
- 1/2 cup vanilla bean ice cream or 1 scoop vanilla bean ice cream (optional for extra creaminess)
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 1 tablespoon sugar (optional, adjust to taste)
- 2 tablespoons blue raspberry syrup (store-bought or homemade)
- Whipped cream (optional, for topping)
Instructions
- Blend the Frappuccino Base: In a blender, combine the ice, milk, vanilla bean ice cream (if using), vanilla extract, and sugar. Blend until smooth and creamy.
- Add the Blue Raspberry Surprise: Pour the blended frappuccino into a tall glass, leaving a little space at the top. Drizzle the blue raspberry syrup into the center of the frappuccino.
- Mix & Swirl: Stir gently to create a fun swirl of blue raspberry throughout the drink. You can also use a spoon to swirl it or let it naturally mix as you drink.
- Serve: Top with whipped cream (optional), and drizzle a little extra blue raspberry syrup on top for a finishing touch.
- Enjoy: Refresh yourself with this sweet, creamy, and colorful frappuccino!
Notes
- For an extra touch, add a few extra blue raspberry syrup drops as a garnish or mix-in.
- Adjust the sweetness by adding more or less sugar depending on your taste.
- You can substitute blue raspberry syrup with blueberry syrup for a more natural flavor if preferred.
- To make this dairy-free, use a non-dairy ice cream and your choice of dairy-free milk.
