- 1/2 cup strong brewed coffee or espresso, chilled
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 2 tbsp vanilla syrup
- 3 tbsp caramel sauce
- 1.5 cups ice cubes
- 1/8 tsp xanthan gum (optional, for thickness)
- as desired whipped cream
How to make Caramel Macchiato Frappuccino
- Prepare your strong brewed coffee or espresso ahead of time and chill it completely to ensure it is cold when blending, which is crucial for preventing a watery Frappuccino.
- In a high-speed blender, combine the 1/2 cup chilled coffee or espresso, 1/2 cup whole milk, 2 tablespoons vanilla syrup, and 2 tablespoons of the caramel sauce.
- Add 1.5 cups of ice cubes to the blender. If you desire a thicker, more consistent texture that resists melting, add 1/8 teaspoon of xanthan gum at this stage.
- Secure the lid and blend on high speed for 45-75 seconds, or until the mixture is perfectly smooth and there are no visible ice fragments. Use a tamper if necessary to ensure even blending and break down any stubborn ice.
- Take a tall serving glass and, if desired, create an appealing swirl pattern on the inside walls of the glass using 1 tablespoon of the remaining caramel sauce, allowing it to drip attractively.
- Carefully pour the blended Caramel Macchiato Frappuccino into the prepared glass, filling it to the brim with the smooth, icy mixture.
- Garnish generously with a beautiful swirl of whipped cream on top, starting in the center and working outwards.
- Finish by drizzling the remaining 1 tablespoon of caramel sauce in a crosshatch pattern over the whipped cream for a classic look and an extra burst of caramel flavor. Serve immediately for optimal enjoyment.
