If you’re craving a creamy, icy coffee treat but want to keep it low-carb, this Keto Iced Coffee Frappe is exactly what you need.
It’s rich, frothy, and takes just a few minutes to whip up.
The best part?
It’s completely customizable—make it as sweet, creamy, or coffee-strong as you like.
I love making this in the afternoons when I need a pick-me-up, and my kids love “helping” me blend it, even though they know it’s mom’s special coffee drink. 😊
Let’s make your new favorite keto coffee treat!
What You’ll Need
- Cold Brew Coffee: 1 cup (or strong-brewed coffee, chilled)
- Unsweetened Almond Milk: ½ cup
- Heavy Cream: 2 tablespoons
- Ice Cubes: 1 cup
- Erythritol or Monk Fruit Sweetener: 1–2 teaspoons (adjust to taste)
- Vanilla Extract: ½ teaspoon
- Optional Toppings: Whipped cream, cocoa powder, or sugar-free chocolate syrup
Pro Tips
- Coffee Strength Matters: Use strong coffee or cold brew for the best flavor. Weak coffee won’t shine in a frappe.
- Blend Longer for Froth: Let the blender run for 20–30 seconds to get that creamy, frothy texture.
- Sweeten to Taste: Start with less sweetener—you can always add more if needed.
- Kid-Friendly Version: Skip the coffee and use decaf or replace it with chilled herbal tea for a family-friendly twist.
- Ice Ratio: Too much ice = watery frappe. Stick to about 1 cup per serving.
Tools You’ll Need
- Blender
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Tall glass or cup
Substitutions and Variations
- Non-Dairy Creamers: Swap heavy cream for coconut cream if you’re dairy-free.
- Milk Options: Use unsweetened coconut milk instead of almond milk.
- Sweeteners: Replace erythritol with stevia, allulose, or your preferred keto-friendly sweetener.
- Flavors: Add a dash of cinnamon or sugar-free caramel syrup for variety.
Instructions
1. Blend Everything Together
In a blender, combine cold brew coffee, almond milk, heavy cream, ice cubes, sweetener, and vanilla extract. Blend until smooth and frothy.
2. Taste and Adjust
Taste the frappe and adjust sweetness or creaminess to your liking. Blend again if needed.
3. Serve and Enjoy
Pour the frappe into a tall glass. Add whipped cream, a sprinkle of cocoa powder, or sugar-free chocolate syrup if you like. Serve immediately.
Leftovers and Storage
Frappe is best enjoyed fresh, but you can store any leftover in the fridge for a few hours. Shake or re-blend before serving since separation might occur.
