I love the frozen drinks at Starbucks, but they are so expensive. Does anyone have any recipes that are as smooth and creamy as starbucks and, needless to say, as yummy ?

Starbucks has something they call a "FRAPUCCINO" remember this is a registered name so what I make is simply "My Frozen Coffee" This recipe for a drink costs me about $0.38 for a 40 oz blender full. A bit of a difference when 16 oz at Starbucks set me back $4.50 plus the expected tip and I don't have a clue what the heck was in that foil box that came out from under the cabinet... So here is my own tried and true recipe.

The measurments are to taste that you prefer over time there is no order to the mixture:
1. from my ice dispenser 1 20 oz travel cup of ice. Just dump it in your Kitchen-aid counter top blender.
2. About 8 oz plain or vanilla yogurt. I buy it in a 32 oz carton.
3. 2 or 3 teaspoons of Vanilla Extract
4. A good hard squeeze of Honey from one of those bear shapped plastic thingys with the pop top.
5. 1 or 2 packets of water soluable cocoa or an equivalent for a box of powder.
6. 1 or 2 scoops of Instant Coffee crystals
7. Just enough milk to make the blender take up the challenge and mix it well when you turn the thing on Liquify.
There is no secret to the mixture in what to add first. If you want some protein add a whole egg. If you want Ice Cream use less milk. If you want a zip and a zing add a shot of Caffee Lolita Coffee Liqure. If you are diabetic well you know what to do in that case.
Enjoy the fun - Silverthorne

I make this one all the time, it doesn't taste exactly like Starbucks, but personally, I think it's way better.

It's on the back of a Nestle hot chocolate packet. They have a lot of different recipes on the back of each packet in a box and I've tried a few but this one's my favorite.

FROZEN MOCHA
(makes 1 serving; about the amount of 1 coffee cup)

Ingredients:
-1 cup ice cubes *I use 5 and it works great
-1/2 cup vanilla frozen yogurt, or ice cream
-1/2 cup milk
-1 envelope of any brand hot cocoa mix *I use Nestle
-1/2 teaspoon Instant coffee granules *I use General Foods International French Vanilla
-Fat Free whipped topping (optional)

Directions:
Place ice, frozen yogurtm(or ice cream), milk, cocoa mix, and coffee granules in blender; cover. Blend until smooth. Top with whipped topping. Serve Immediately.

Like I said earlier, I got this recipe from Nestle.
I love it.

When I make any type of ice coffee I make the ice cubes out of left over coffee. This prevents the ice from watering down the drink.

I recommend an awesome ebook. Its $7 but you get 34 pages of starbucks recipes. For a frozen coffee here is one from the book. If you want to buy it i got it from this link here: (if it don't work copy and paste it into your browser)

www.smalls257.phpnet.us/starbucks/templates4536/salesletter.html

STARBUCK'S FROZEN FRAPPUCCINO
The Frappuccino is blended with strong coffee, sugar, a dairy base, and ice.
Make double-strength coffee by measuring 2 tablespoons of ground coffee
per cup (serving) in your coffee maker. The copy will be even more authentic
if you use Starbucks beans and grind them yourself just before brewing.

Coffee
3/4 cup double-strength coffee, cold
1 cup low-fat milk
3 tablespoons granulated sugar
2 cups ice

1. Make double-strength coffee by brewing with twice the coffee required by
your coffee maker. That should be 2 tablespoons of ground coffee per each cup
of coffee. Chill before using.

2. To make the drink, combine all ingredients in a blender and blend on high
speed until ice is crushed and drink is smooth. Pour into two 16-ounce glasses, and
serve with a straw.
Makes 2 large drinks.

Caramel
For this, add 3 tablespoons of caramel topping to the original recipe above and
prepare as described. Top each glass with whipped cream and drizzle additional
caramel over the whipped cream.

Mocha
For this version, add 3 tablespoons Hershey's chocolate syrup to the original
recipe and prepare as described. Top each glass with whipped cream if desired

Here's another great recipe you can try. Mix 1 small box powered milk, same size powered sugar, and unsweetened cocoa. Mix all this together in a plastic container. (This can be stored for quite a while this way). In blender pour your regular or lowfat mile to equal about 1 1/2 cup. Scoop about 1 cup of the powered mixture. Put in your favorite candy bar (Butterfinger is best or Heath Bar), 1 shot espresso and blend until smooth. Pour into glasses and enjoy.""""

I don't have an exact recipe, but we mix up coffee and vanilla ice cream in the blender for a similar treat. And I agree with you-- no coffee is as yummy as Starbucks. We are thrifty, but I splurge on packaged Starbucks at Walmart (it's the cheapest) to enjoy on the weekends.
