Homemade Mocha Frappe Recipe

If you are looking for a yummy, ice-cold summer drink, this Homemade Mocha Frappe Recipe is just the ticket. Instead of paying $2–$3 for a small mocha frappe from McDonald’s, you can whip up your own at home for a fraction of the price!

How to Make a Mocha Frappe

There is a secret ingredient to making the perfect copycat McDonald’s Mocha Frappe: Frozen Coffee! The frozen coffee helps get the creamy texture that will not get watered down as the temperature of the drink rises.

In theory, you could use just ice cubes and coffee, but who likes watered-down coffee? By freezing the coffee, you get the same taste as adding milk directly to your hot coffee in the morning, but in an ice-cold, frosty version.

If you are not a chocolate fan, or just want to change things up, you can make the same iced drink but with a different flavor. Just substitute the chocolate syrup with caramel sauce or any other flavor that you desire.
