Title: Starbucks Frappuccino
Categories: Beverages, Copycat
Yield: 24 Ounces
1/2 c Fresh espresso
2 1/2 c Lowfat milk (2%)
1/4 c Granulated sugar
1 tb Dry pectin *
Here's one that I get requests for all of the time, and that you
won't yet find in any book. This is a clone for Starbuck's "Lowfat
Creamy Blend of Coffee & Milk" that you can now find in the
all-too-puny 9-1/2 oz bottles in most stores. Those little bottles
will set you back at least a buck, but this Top Secret Recipes
version costs a mere fraction of that. Plus, the recipe actually
makes enough that you can get a pretty major caffeine buzz. Then,
when you get down to the "Tidbits" I'll tell you how to clone
espresso with a standard drip machine and ground coffee. Cool!
Combine all of the ingredients in a pitcher or covered container.
Stir or shake until sugar is dissolved. Chill and serve cold.
"Mocha" Variety:
Add a pinch (1/16 ts) cocoa powder to the mixture before combining.
To fake espresso with a drip coffee maker and standard grind of
coffee: Use 1/3 cup ground coffee and 1 cup of water. Brew once then
run coffee through machine again, same grounds. Makes about 1/2 cup
fresh espresso to use in the above recipe. Run a pot of water through
machine, without grounds, to clean.
* This is a natural thickener found in fruits that is used for
canning. You can find it in the supermarket near the canning
supplies. It is used in this recipe to make the drink thicker and
creamier, and can be found in the original recipe. It does not add to
the flavor and can be excluded if you don't care so much about
duplicating the texture of the real thing.
