Essential Ingredients
- 2 cups Almond Milk (approx. 400ml)
- 2 cups Ice (approx. 200g)
- 1 shot Espresso (or 1/2 cup strongly brewed coffee)
- 1 Tbsp Coffee Grounds (instant coffee or espresso powder)
- 3 Tbsp Chocolate Syrup (approx. 45ml, adjust to taste)
Topping Ingredients
- Almonds (sliced or chopped) to taste
- 2 cups Whipped Cream (approx. 200ml, stiffly whipped)
- Almonds (sliced or chopped) to taste
- 2 cups Whipped Cream (approx. 200ml, stiffly whipped)
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, prepare the whipped cream for topping. Pour cold heavy cream into a bowl and whip using a hand mixer or whisk until stiff peaks form. Stiffly whipped cream will hold its shape beautifully. Place the prepared whipped cream in the refrigerator for later.
Step 2
Prepare the almonds for topping. You can use sliced almonds as they are, or for a bit more texture, finely chop them using a knife or a mortar and pestle. Coarsely chopped almonds offer a more satisfying chew.
Step 3
Now, let’s create the core flavor of the frappuccino. In a blender, combine the almond milk, ice, prepared espresso (or strong coffee), coffee grounds (instant coffee powder), and chocolate syrup for sweetness. Blend on the highest setting until all ingredients are finely incorporated, for about 30 seconds to 1 minute. You can pause midway and scrape down the sides with a spatula for a smoother consistency.
Step 4
Carefully pour the blended frappuccino into your serving glass. Generously top with the whipped cream you prepared earlier, and finally, sprinkle the chopped almonds on top. Your delicious homemade Almond Mocha Frappuccino is complete! Add a straw and enjoy right away!
