Introduction: Candy Cane Frappuccino Recipe
The Candy Cane Frappuccino is not an official Starbucks flavor, but it is one you can find on the Starbucks Secret Recipe website. This tasty non-caffeinated beverage is great for the candy cane, or just peppermint, lovers out there. It's also super easy to make.

Step 1: Supplies
This recipe is a single serving and makes about the 16oz Grande size from Starbucks.
Ingredients:
- 2c ice
- 3/4c milk - or Half & Half or whipping cream
- 2 pumps/tbsp Peppermint Syrup
- 3 pumps/tbsp Vanilla Syrup
- 1tbsp Simple syrup
- Pinch of Xantham Gum (optional)
Caffeinated Version:
Replace 1/4 cup of the milk with Strong coffee.
Topping Suggestions:
- Whipped Topping
- Mashed up candy cane or peppermint candies
Utensils:
- Blender - I use a Magic Bullet at home, it's great for making individual drinks
- Ice cube trays - small ice cubes make for even easier blending
- Measuring cups and spoons
- Cups for serving
- Reusable Straws
Step 2: Blend It
Blend it and top it with whatever you want. I mashed up a peppermint candy in a plastic bag and sprinkled that on the whipped topping.
