DIY Vegan Frappé

Let’s talk coffee! It’s delish, it supplies a nice energy boost, it contains antioxidants, and you can fancy it up by making it extra-creamy and topping it off with whipped cream made from rice milk. Mmm, I’ve definitely got dessert-like coffees on the brain—especially frappés! Instead of splurging on fancy coffee drinks and having to modify ingredients at coffee shops, why not make your own?

By making frappés at home, you control every ingredient. Want an extra dash of flavored syrup? No problem! Want to add soy milk? No extra charge! Plus, you can use healthier ingredients.

This super-simple recipe is perfect for penny pinchers and coffee lovers alike. Enjoy!

recipe for a DIY vegan frappe.

8 ice cubes
1/4 cup almond, rice, or soy milk

  • Pour the coffee, ice cubes, and nondairy milk into a blender and blend until creamy.
  • Pour into glasses and add optional flavorings and garnishes, if desired. Serve immediately.

    I love this recipe! I add a lot of stuff like chunks of dark chocolate and chocolate syrup, plus I use chocolate Soymilk instead of normal, I guess you could say I like mocha frappes a lot. But yeah, I make these every day now! SO YUMMY, and so easy too!

    I’ve never made one myself but I get them at coffee shops all the time with soy milk and they’re so delicious!

    Too long to explain here, it's long enough for a novel.

    Father loves to farm, be self sustainable, loves to read, he's a antiques/vintage auctioneer, art student, and looks like mr. Rogers. My mother is a Montessori teacher and is amazing with children, all about local organic foods, loves gardening, cooking etc. my sister who is nine years older than me was into indie music and introduced me to all sorts of things at a young age. This all rubbed of on me and from that base I grew into similar things. I'm an INFJ

    I want to get into marketing but not have to rely on people which have different morals and worldviews than I do to hire me. While I'm figuring this out, I want to show everyone what I believe in and spur them into action against injustices.
