Healthier Version of a Starbucks Frappuccino


If you are anything like me you will enjoy one of the many frappe's that they sell at Starbucks, whilst thinking that they are a complete ripoff! I personally like the coffee light frappuccino so decided to attempt to make one myself after seeing a lot of health bloggers recipes about protein shakes that looked a lot like frappuccino to me.

You will need
A blender
4-6 ice cubes
250ml your choice of milk (I like soy light or vanilla rice dream and Matt has regular skimmed)
1 teaspoon of coffee granules
1 scoop of vanilla whey or protein powder - I  use this one from myprotein











Shove it all in the blender and whiz up until all of the ice has been crushed. 

To make Matt's sweeter I use agave nectar as it's consistency blends really easily with the drink.




A tasty cold drink that is filling and perfect for after a long run.

mmm that looks yummy.
I need to find somewhere easier to get the whey powder from.
Would vanilla flavoured powder work?

@Phoebe - you can get a brand in holland and barrett, I just prefer the other one as it works out cheaper x

This looks so tasty! We'll most certainly try this out this week. Starbucks has already taken enough of our money with those addictive frappes!

Thanks for the recipe!
