  • 1 cup ice
  • 1 ½ cups milk
  • 3 scoops vanilla bean ice cream
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • â…› teaspoon vanilla extract

Topping (Optional)

  • Whipped cream


Instructions

  1. Add Ingredients to Blender: Place the ice, milk, vanilla bean ice cream, sugar, and vanilla extract into the blender, ensuring all ingredients are evenly distributed for smooth blending.
  2. Blend Until Smooth: Blend the mixture on high speed until it reaches a completely smooth and creamy consistency with no ice chunks remaining.

  4. Add Whipped Cream: Optionally, top the frappuccino with whipped cream to add a rich and airy finish to your drink.

Notes

  • Use whole milk for a creamier texture or substitute with any preferred milk alternative.
  • For a stronger vanilla flavor, consider adding an extra ½ teaspoon of vanilla extract.
  • Adjust sugar based on your taste preference or use a sugar substitute for a lower calorie option.
  • To make it dairy-free, swap ice cream and milk with vegan alternatives such as coconut milk and dairy-free vanilla ice cream.
  • Serve immediately for the best texture and flavor as the frappuccino may melt quickly.
