This easy Frappe recipe is made with instant coffee, water, sugar and milk, and served over ice to keep your thirst quenched all summer long! See the step by step recipe video down in the recipe card.
Summer is officially here, and between beach days, camping trips, bonfires, and all the late nights, I'll be squeezing in a lot of this easy Frappe recipe to keep me going!

I've been making these easy Frappes for many, many years now, and it's given me time to fine tune our preferences!

The good thing about this recipe is that it's easy to adjust to your tastes, and use more or less coffee, more or less milk, and more or less sugar so that it is just the way you want it.

If you don't have a blender but still want a delicious iced coffee drink, this Cold Brew Coffee and this Caramel Frappuccino are two more favorites here! And if you don't want to leave the kids out (or the non-coffee drinkers), this Frozen Hot Chocolate is the perfect sweet treat for summer.

What is a frappe?

A frappe (technically, frappé) is a slightly creamy, slightly sweet iced coffee drink made with just a few ingredients, originally created by a Nescafe representative in Greece.

Traditionally, a frappe is made by combining instant coffee, water, sugar and milk in a shaker and shaking until cold and frothy, then serving over ice.

You can choose the shaken method, if you want a frothy iced coffee drink that isn't blended with ice.

I find the crushed ice very refreshing on a hot day, so that's how we do it most often!

In the recipe and in the video, I'll show you both ways, so you can pick what you prefer.

What's the difference between a Frappe and a Frappuccino?

There isn't much.

A Frappuccino is a Starbuck's trademarked name for essentially the same beverage, although the Starbuck's drink is always blended with ice and not shaken.

A Starbuck's Frappuccino can also be coffee-based, or not. Their Creme Frappuccinos come in a wide variety of non-coffee flavors, like Strawberry Creme, Vanilla Bean Creme, and Double Chocolatey Chip.

How to make a coffee Frappe:

1. Place all ingredients in blender, and blend!

2. Pour it into a glass and enjoy!

That's really all there is to it, although it's important to taste and adjust the sweetness, creaminess, and coffee-ness to your preferences.

I find the blended frappes turn out lighter in color because the ice dilutes the coffee a little bit more.

I also tend to get a little more foam when I use the blender!

OR:

1. Place the ingredients, except for the ice, in a shaker or jar

2. Shake until frothy and serve over ice.

The shaken method is really convenient for days you don't want to whip out the blender!

It turns out a little darker in color usually because the ice doesn't get incorporated into the drink, but it is just as delicious.

Ingredients and variations:

This easy Frappe recipe is really just a base to get you going! While it's the perfect treat to keep you going, there are so many fun ways to mix things up that we rarely have the same thing twice!

Here are a few fun add ins to spark your creativity:

Swap the sugar for brown sugar and cinnamon

Swap the sugar for honey or maple syrup for a naturally sweetened drink

Swap the instant coffee for decaf if you can't handle a lot of caffeine

Add a ½ teaspoon of mint extract and a tablespoon of chocolate syrup

Add a generous scoop of Dulce de Leche in place of the sugar for a rich and caramel-y treat

Add in some hot chocolate powder for a Mocha frappe (more on that below!)

How to make a Caramel Frappe:

Adding caramel syrup to your frappe is a quick way to get that Caramel Frappe flavor with little extra work!

1. Add instant coffee, water, ice, milk or cream and some caramel syrup to a blender, shaker or glass jar and blend or shake until cold and frothy.

2. Serve with whipped cream and a drizzle of caramel syrup, not optional! 😉

How to make a Mocha Frappe:

To make this recipe a Mocha Frappe, we just have to add some chocolate. There are a few ways we can do this, but hot chocolate mix or chocolate syrup are our best options! For a sugar-free chocolate addition, you can add some unsweetened cocoa powder.

2nd Junior High School of Komotini- Lunch in Greece

# data[].attributes.body
For lunch, Greeks have a lot of choices. A really common food we eat for lunch is mousakas, it is a really good food. Pastitsio is just like mousaka but with different ingredients inside. A food that almost everyone likes, is souvlaki. Souvlaki can be eaten like a sandwich and it costs around 4 euros. Inside the sandwich, you can put whatever you want, for example, fried potatoes, sauce etc. If you don't like souvlaki you can put gyros instead, which is as good as souvlaki and it also costs around 4 euros. Some foods our parents and grandparents often make are stuffed peppers, chicken with rice or potatoes,

spaghetti, soups etc. Stuffed peppers are peppers with rice and meat inside. All these foods can be found at markets too and they cost around 8 euros. I want to know what you eat for lunch in your country!

Eating 1 cup of yogurt can provide almost half of your daily calcium needs. It also contains other vital nutrients.

Humans have consumed yogurt for hundreds of years.

It's very nutritious, and eating it regularly may boost several aspects of your health. For example, yogurt has been found to reduce the risk of heart disease and osteoporosis, as well as aid in weight management.

Yogurt is a popular dairy product made by the bacterial fermentation of milk.

The bacteria used to make yogurt are called "yogurt cultures," which ferment lactose, the natural sugar found in milk. This process produces lactic acid, a substance that causes milk proteins to curdle, giving yogurt its unique flavor and texture.

Yogurt can be made from all types of milk. Varieties made from skim milk are considered fat-free, whereas whole milk options are considered full fat.

Plain yogurt without added colorants is a white, thick liquid with a tangy flavor. However, most commercial brands contain added ingredients, such as sugar and artificial flavors.

Here are six science-based health benefits of natural yogurt.

Yogurt contains some of nearly every nutrient that your body needs.

It's known for containing a lot of calcium, a mineral necessary for healthy teeth and bones. Just one cup provides 49% of your daily calcium needs (, ).

One cup also provides 28% of your daily phosphorus, 10% for magnesium, and 12% for potassium. These minerals are essential for several biological processes, such as regulating blood pressure, metabolism, and bone health (, , , ).

One nutrient that yogurt does not contain naturally is vitamin D, but it's commonly fortified with it. Vitamin D promotes bone and immune system health and may reduce the risk of some diseases, including heart disease and depression (, 9, 0).

Summary
Yogurt provides almost every nutrient that your body needs. It's especially high in calcium, B vitamins, and trace minerals.

Yogurt provides an impressive amount of protein, with about 12 grams per 8 ounces (227 grams) ( 2).

Protein is shown to support metabolism by increasing your energy expenditure, or the number of calories that you burn throughout the day ().

Getting enough protein is also important for appetite regulation, as it increases the production of hormones that signal fullness. It may help reduce the number of calories you consume overall, which is beneficial for weight management (, , ).

In one 2014 study, participants who snacked on yogurt were less hungry and consumed 100 fewer calories at dinner than those who ate lower-protein snacks with the same calories ().

Yogurt's fullness-promoting effects are even more prominent if you eat Greek yogurt, a very thick variety that has been strained. It's higher in protein than regular yogurt, providing 20 grams per 7 ounces (200 grams) ().

Greek yogurt can potentially influence appetite management and delay feelings of hunger more than other dairy products such as whole or skim milk ().

Summary
Yogurt, especially the Greek variety, is very high in protein. Protein is helpful for appetite and weight management.

Some types of yogurt contain live bacteria, or probiotics, that were either a part of the starter culture or added after pasteurization. These may benefit digestive health when consumed ().

Many yogurts have been pasteurized, which is a heat treatment that kills the beneficial bacteria they contain. Even some yogurt varieties that are labeled as containing "live, active cultures" often have some probiotic loss due to varying storage temperatures and other factors. Despite this, your best bet for the most effective probiotics is still to check the label and look for one that contains live, active cultures.

Some types of probiotics found in yogurts, such as Bifidobacteria and Lactobacillus, have been shown to lessen the uncomfortable symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), a common disorder that affects the colon (, , , .

One systematic review looked into multiple studies where people with IBS regularly consumed fermented milk or yogurt that contained Bifidobacteria. After 2 to 8 weeks, they found that 50% of the studies on the subject showed a significant improvement in symptomatic abdominal pain associated with IBS ().

Another study found that yogurt with Bifidobacteria improved digestive symptoms and health-related quality of life among women who experienced minor digestive symptoms. ().

Summary
Some types of yogurt contain probiotics, which may boost digestive health by reducing the symptoms of common gastrointestinal disorders, such as bloating, diarrhea, and constipation.

Consuming yogurt - especially if it contains probiotics - regularly may strengthen your immune system and reduce your likelihood of contracting disease-causing agents.

Probiotics are known to potentially reduce inflammation, which is linked to several health conditions ranging from viral infections to gut disorders ( 28, ).

Research shows that in some instances, probiotics may also help reduce the incidence, duration, and severity of the common cold (, 31).

Moreover, the immune-enhancing properties of yogurt are partly due to its magnesium, selenium, and zinc, which are trace minerals known for the role they play in immune system health (, , ).

Vitamin D-fortified yogurts may boost immune health even further. Vitamin D has been studied for its potential to prevent illnesses such as the common cold and flu (, 36, 37, 38).

Summary
Yogurt provides probiotics, vitamins, and minerals, all of which may boost immune health and prevent certain illnesses

Yogurt's fat content is one of the reasons why its healthiness is often controversial. It contains mostly saturated fat, with a small amount of monounsaturated fatty acids.

When discussing the healthiness of saturated fat, it's important to keep in mind where it's coming from or what types of fats are replacing it.

A diet containing saturated fats from full fat dairy products, such as yogurt, will not yield the same results as saturated fats from processed fast food. There is a lack of clear evidence that the fat in yogurt is harmful to your health. In fact, it may benefit heart health in some ways, though more research is needed (, 43).

Some research shows that the intake of saturated fat from whole milk products increases HDL (good) cholesterol, which may protect heart health. Other studies have found yogurt intake to reduce the overall incidence of heart disease (, , ).

Summary
Regardless of its fat content, yogurt appears to benefit heart health by increasing HDL (good) cholesterol and reducing blood pressure.

Greek yogurt in particular has several properties that may help with weight management.

For starters, it's high in protein, which works along with calcium to increase levels of appetite-reducing hormones like peptide YY and GLP-1 ().

Furthermore, several studies have found that yogurt consumption is associated with lower body weight, body fat percentage, and waist circumference ().

One review found that the intake of full fat dairy products, including yogurt, may reduce the incidence of obesity. This is contrary to what was previously believed about the connection between full fat dairy products and weight gain ()

Other studies have found that those who eat yogurt tend to eat better overall than those who do not. This is partly due to its higher nutrient content compared to its reasonably low calorie content ().

Summary
Yogurt is high in protein, which is very filling, and may improve your diet overall. Both of these aspects help with weight management.

Some people need to be cautious with their yogurt intake, as it may cause adverse effects, especially in those with lactose intolerance or a milk allergy.

Lactose intolerance

Lactose intolerance occurs when the body lacks lactase, the enzyme needed to break down lactose, the sugar found in milk. After consuming milk products, it leads to various digestive symptoms, such as abdominal pain and diarrhea. Therefore, those with lactose intolerance may need to avoid yogurt.

However, some people who are lactose intolerant may be able to tolerate it. Some of the lactose breaks down during production, and probiotics may assist with its digestion ().

If you are lactose intolerant, it may be a matter of trial and error to determine if eating yogurt works for you.

Milk allergy

Milk products contain casein and whey, which are proteins that some people are allergic to. In these cases, milk triggers a reaction ranging from hives and swelling to life threatening anaphylaxis.

For this reason, it's best to avoid yogurt if you have a milk allergy.

Added sugar

Therefore, it's important to read food labels and note when added sugar is listed in the ingredients.

Summary
Yogurt may have adverse effects for those with lactose intolerance or milk allergies. Many types also contain high amounts of added sugar, which may contribute to certain health conditions.

Plain, unsweetened varieties are a good choice since they contain minimal ingredients without any added sugar. They can be mixed with other nutrient-dense add-ins like nuts, seeds, and fruit.

Whether you choose low or full fat yogurt is a personal choice. Full-fat varieties may contain more calories, but they are rich in nutrients and can be more satisfying both for taste and hunger.

Also, look for yogurts that contain live and active cultures to ensure you get your fix of health-promoting probiotics.

Summary
The best yogurts for your health contain fewer added ingredients and no added sugar. Aim for a brand that contains live and active cultures.

Yogurt is rich in nutrients and may boost your health when consumed regularly. It also may help reduce the risk of some diseases while also benefiting digestive health and weight management.

However, make sure to choose your yogurt wisely. For maximum health benefits, choose plain, unsweetened varieties that contain probiotics.

What is Mediterranean diet:

The Mediterranean diet is a healthy eating plan based on the historic eating and social patterns of people living near the Mediterranean Sea, including those who reside in southern Italy, Greece, Turkey and Spain. It’s not even really a “diet” in the way we usually think of it, but more like a lifelong way of eating and living.

Considered by many nutrition experts to be one of the healthiest ways to eat, the base of the Mediterranean diet is loaded with anti-inflammatory foods and built upon plant-based ingredients and healthy fats.This diet emphasizes fresh fruits, vegetables, lean proteins like fish, whole grains, beans and healthy fats like olive oil (along with the occasional glass of wine).

Many studies have found that people following a Mediterranean-type diet are less likely to die of heart attacks, cardiovascular disease, stroke, dementia and early death. It also seems to protect against depression, obesity,metabolic syndrome, type 2 diabetes and certain types of cancer.

The best part is, even with all of these benefits, it still provides the opportunity for people to “eat, drink and be merry.”
