Anytime I go to Starbucks my drink of choice is the Frappuccino. There's just something refreshing about coffee blended with chocolate, milk and ice. I rarely make a trip to Starbucks these days because it is quiet costly for a "treat." I've experimented with making the drink at home but have never been successful. I never could get my proportions right and making it with regular coffee at home seemed to be the big challenge. I finally resorted to Google to find a home Frappuccino recipe. After trying a few, I came across one that is pretty close to the real thing.
