Ingredients
Scale

- 1 cup/240 ml whole milk
- 2 tbsps/30 ml chocolate syrup (or caramel)
- 2 tbsps/30 g chocolate chips (optional)
- ½ cup/120 ml whipped cream
Instructions
- Coffee Extraction: Brew a robust espresso or intense coffee, capturing deep, complex flavor profiles that will anchor the frappuccino’s character.
- Blending Preparation: Combine freshly brewed coffee, ice cubes, milk, vanilla syrup, and sugar directly into a high-performance blender, ensuring all components are ready for transformation.
- Texture Development: Pulse the mixture vigorously until it achieves a velvety, frost-laden consistency with uniformly crushed ice crystals, creating a smooth and harmonious beverage.

- Garnishing Finale: Top the frappuccino with a lavish cloud of whipped cream, then embellish with chocolate shavings, caramel drizzle, or a light dusting of ground cinnamon for an elevated sensory experience.
Notes
- Brew Boldly: Choose high-quality, freshly ground coffee beans for maximum flavor intensity and aromatic depth.
- Chill Perfectly: Use frozen coffee cubes instead of water ice to prevent dilution and maintain robust coffee taste.
- Blend Strategically: Pulse the blender in short bursts to achieve a smooth, creamy texture without over-processing the mixture.
- Customize Creatively: Experiment with flavor syrups, alternative milk options, and unique toppings to craft a personalized frappuccino experience.
