Ice Cubes
Ice cubes are essential for making a Frappuccino. Frappuccinos are frozen coffee drinks, therefore you will need ice cubes in order to make your drink frozen. If you wish, you can try freezing brewed coffee and using part frozen coffee ice cubes, in addition to ice cubes if you desire.
Espresso
For the coffee in your Frappuccino, you will need either espresso that has been brewed and cooled, or you will need to use coffee that has been brewed extra strong, and then cooled. Either one will work well. If you don’t have a way to make espresso, don’t worry. Simply use the coffee that you brewed, only prepare it so that it is extra strong. Then place it in the fridge and allow it to chill before adding to your Frappuccino recipe.
