Almond-Coconut Frappé: Made with Silk’s Almond-Coconut Blend, you can indulge in this very delicious Frappé without the guilt!
Hi, you guys! Happy Tuesday!
Hey, remember that one time we went to Vienna, Austria, and I drowned myself in all-things ice cream and fraps?? Yeah, fraps. That’s what the cool kids call a Frappé these days. Which is also just a fancy name for strong coffee + milk + ice. So, remember? We were young, wild and free, and sipping on coffee at midnight was totally okay.
Waking up at noon because we couldn’t fall asleep due to caffeine-overdose was also a-okay. To be 25 again…
I’ve tasted a few super amazing Frappes in my life, but, not to toot my own horn or anything, buuuuut I am really IN LOVE with my very own Almond Coconut Frappe.
You know that I’m no stranger to making my own coffee concoctions – Eiskaffee, Mexican Coffee, Irish Coffee… you see where I’m going. Therefore, when Silk invited me to introduce their brand new Almond-Coconut Blend, I was all, sign me up – I have the perrrrfect recipe! Because, let’s be clear, Frappes don’t roll off the hips the way they used to, m’kay?
Silk has always been my go-to for Coconutmilk. It’s delicious, nutritious, and slim-alicious! But Silk has two new products now: Silk Almond Coconut Blend in Unsweetened and Original AND Silk Protein + Fiber Almond milk in Vanilla and Original.
I reached for the Almond Coconut Blend and found that there’s only 50 calories in a whole cup! And, it contains 50% more calcium than cow’s milk! I’m telling you, this stuff is pretty amazing.
Also? The mixture of cold, icy coffee with Silk’s sweet Almond-Coconut Blend is completely and happily refreshing and delicious. And skinny… just sayin’.
It’s different than the original Frappe, but it’s different in a really good way. If you love coffee drinks as much as yours truly, prepare to indulge without the guilt.

ENJOY!

Almond coconut frappe looks nutritious and yummy. You just gave me something new to try at home. Thanks for sharing a recipe with us.

Hi Trish! Yes, regular coffee is fine, too. It won’t be as strong as espresso, but it will definitely work. Hope you enjoy it!
I remember the days when ordering a nonfat caramel frappe at the ‘Bucks was the coolest thing ever. Now I’m 30 and making my own coffee at home. Love this frozen treat. Pinned.
Ah!! I need one (or two!) right now!! Please! 😀
Delicious … creamy, sweet, rich, cold, caffeine. 🙂
I really need to pick up some espresso powder one of these days.
Thank you for posting this. You’ve just given me the incentive to try something I’ve been meaning to try for some time now! 🙂
Hi Viki!!
I hope you get a chance to try it! It is sooo good! Flavorful! 🙂

You are speaking my language-we make frappes at home all the time in the summertime and I need to just try this recipe! That stuff keeps me awake on weekends so I can blog, it’s the only way-lol.
I’d love to guzzle one of these! Love that Silk and use it all the time! Pinned
