Ingredients & Substitutions
I love using frozen bananas because they add a natural creaminess and sweetness without needing any dairy. If you don’t have bananas, you could use avocado for a different twist! The Medjool dates are my go-to for sweetness; they blend so nicely and add a caramel-like flavor. If you’re short on time, you can skip the freezing step and use fresh bananas, just add more ice.
Tips & Notes
- •Make sure your coffee is cool before blending to avoid a hot mess!
- •I like to keep some frozen bananas on hand for smoothies and frappuccinos - they’re a lifesaver!
Recipe Variations
- •Sometimes I’ll add a scoop of my favorite plant-based protein powder for an extra boost.
- •If I’m feeling festive, a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg can add a lovely warmth.
Storage & Freezing
This frappuccino is best enjoyed fresh, but if you have leftovers, you can store it in the fridge for a day. Just give it a good shake before drinking, as it may separate.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I make this without coffee?

Ingredients
Instructions
- 1
Start by brewing your coffee and letting it cool to room temperature. I usually make it in the morning and let it sit while I prepare my other ingredients.
- 2
In a blender, combine the cooled coffee, almond milk, frozen banana, Medjool dates, vanilla extract, and cocoa powder if you’re using it.
- 3
Add the ice cubes to the blender. I like to use a full cup for that perfect frappuccino texture.
- 4
Blend everything on high until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides as needed. You want it to be thick but pourable.
- 5
Taste your frappuccino and adjust sweetness if needed by adding more dates or a splash of maple syrup.
- 6
Pour into tall glasses and enjoy immediately! You can garnish with a sprinkle of cocoa powder or a drizzle of plant-based chocolate syrup if you’re feeling fancy.
