⭐ Pro Tips

  1. Toast the white chocolate carefully – Stir often to prevent burning, and toast just until golden brown.
  2. Use strong coffee – This keeps the coffee flavor noticeable even when blended with ice.
  3. Want it thicker? Add extra ice or freeze the milk before blending.
  4. Make it dairy-free! Use almond, oat, or coconut milk, and a dairy-free whipped topping.
  5. No caramel sauce? Swap for maple syrup or a touch of vanilla extract for extra sweetness.

πŸ”„ Substitutions & Variations

  • No white chocolate chips? Use a white chocolate bar and chop it into small pieces.
  • No coffee? Swap for decaf or use extra milk for a caffeine-free version.
  • Want an extra caramel kick? Add a drizzle of caramel inside the glass before pouring the frappuccino.
  • Make it a holiday drink! Add a dash of cinnamon or nutmeg for a festive touch.

⏳ Make-Ahead Tips

  • Brew the coffee ahead of time and keep it in the fridge so it’s ready to go.
  • Toast extra white chocolate and store in an airtight container for quick use.
