Ingredients

-4 tablespoon chocolate syrup
-4 tablespoon chocolate chips
-4 cups double-strength freshly brewed dark roast coffee
-or crushed ice
-cream (optional)
-syrup (for drizzle, optional)

Instructions

Fill blender half full with chopped or crushed ice. Add all ingredients (except whipped cream) and blend until thick and still icy. Pour into 4 tall glasses, top with whipping cream and drizzle chocolate over the whipped cream.
Starbucks Mocha Frappuccino
6 cups double-strength freshly brewed dark roast coffee
2/3 cup unsweetened cocoa powder, plus additional cocoa powder for garnish
2 cups nonfat milk
Fill ice-cube trays with half of the brewed coffee and place in the freezer. In a bowl, combine the remaining brewed coffee, cocoa powder and milk and stir to dissolve the cocoa. Cover and chill.
When the ice cubes have frozen, transfer them to a kitchen towel and, using a hammer or mallet, crush the cubes. Fill 4 glasses with the crushed ice and divide the coffee-cocoa mixture evenly among them. Dust the top with cocoa powder and serve.

Thanks for the recipe! I have a friend that orders these all the time. She'll flip when she realizes she can make them herself.

No problem! It is pretty close to the real deal too, and you don't have to pay 5 bucks for it. That's gotta be the best part!

[Austin]

I agree. The worst part about SB is the prices.

[lady_lilly]

Definitely. I always find something I like there, but by the time I add on a scone, or whatever pastry looks good that day, I end up spending close to 10 bucks. It's ridiculous!

[Austin]

I only get coffee and end up spending close to $10.

[lady_lilly]

Very impressive!

Have you tried it, and what did you think?
