Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup Ice
  • 1 1/2 cups Milk (whole milk or a substitute like almond, oat, or coconut milk)
  • 3 scoops Vanilla Bean Ice Cream (or dairy-free alternative)
  • 1 tsp Sugar (optional)
  • 1/8 tsp Vanilla Extract

Blue Raspberry Swirl

  • 2-3 tbsp Blue Raspberry Syrup
  • Milk or Cream (small amount to adjust thickness of syrup)
  • Blue Food Coloring (optional, for vibrant presentation)

Toppings (Optional)

  • Whipped Cream
  • More Blue Raspberry Syrup for garnish

Substitutions and Alternatives

  • Heavy Whipping Cream (optional substitution for vanilla ice cream)
  • Low-Calorie Sweeteners (e.g., Stevia, Monk Fruit) to replace sugar

Instructions

  1. Gather Ingredients: Collect all required ingredients including ice, milk, vanilla bean ice cream, sugar, vanilla extract, blue raspberry syrup, and optional whipped cream to ensure a smooth preparation process.
  2. Prepare Blender: Measure each ingredient accurately and make sure your blender is clean and ready for use.
  3. Add Ingredients to Blender: Place the ice, milk, vanilla bean ice cream, sugar, and vanilla extract into the high-speed blender.
  4. Blend Until Smooth: Blend the mixture on high speed until it becomes creamy and smooth with no large ice chunks remaining.
  5. Prepare Blue Raspberry Syrup: In a small bowl, mix 2-3 tablespoons of blue raspberry syrup with a small amount of milk or cream to create a smooth and slightly thick syrup for the swirl effect.
  6. Pour Vanilla Mixture: Pour the blended vanilla frappuccino into a tall serving glass, leaving some space at the top for the syrup swirl.
  7. Create Swirl Effect: Using a spoon, drizzle the prepared blue raspberry syrup along the inside edges of the glass to make a swirling design. Optionally, gently stir the syrup into the drink for a marbled look.
  8. Add Whipped Cream: Top the frappuccino with whipped cream for an indulgent finishing touch, if desired.
  9. Garnish with Syrup: Drizzle additional blue raspberry syrup over the whipped cream to enhance both flavor and presentation.
  10. Serve Immediately: Serve the Vanilla Bean Frappuccino with a Blue Raspberry Swirl right away with a straw or spoon to enjoy its refreshing creamy and tangy flavors.
  11. Customize: Experiment with adding fruit chunks, adjusting sweetness, or swapping ingredients to fit dietary preferences and personal tastes.

  • Balance the creamy vanilla flavor with the tangy blue raspberry for a delicious twist.
