Homemade Pumpkin Spice Mocha Frappe - Holiday Flavors
December 21, 2012
Do you remember my Homemade Iced Mocha Frappe's? I love being able to make my own coffee drinks at home, without having to kill my wallet by going to Starbucks. It's so easy to make your own, and you can customize them any way to want.
Not a fan of cold drinks in the winter? Not a problem, just leave out the ice and keep your coffee hot instead of chilling it...now you've got yourself a snuggly, warm version.
Some of my favorite versions are Pumpkin Spice, White Chocolate Peppermint, Caramel, and Cinnamon. I just make a homemade syrup to flavor the mocha's how I want. For a Pumpkin Spice Mocha, I like to use the Pumpkin Spice Syrup I used in the Pumpkin Spice Hot Apple Cider.
So, here's a remix on my homemade Mocha Frappe's - holiday style!
Pumpkin Spice Mocha Frappe
Serves: 2 Printable Recipe
1/2 cup strong brewed coffee
1/2 cup milk
2 cups ice cubes
2-3 tbsp sugar
2-3 tbsp chocolate syrup
2-3 tbsp pumpkin spice syrup
whipped topping (for garnish)
chocolate syrup (for garnish)
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
1/2 cup sugar
1/2 tsp vanilla
1 1/4 cup water
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 tsp all spice
1/2 tsp ginger
Directions:
Brew up your coffee...make it strong baby. Nobody likes weak, watery coffee. Now allow it to chill for a bit. You do the same.
To make the pumpkin syrup: Combine everything in a pan and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, and let cook for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally until the mixture becomes thick and syrupy. Store in the fridge until ready to use.

For frozen Pumpkin Spice Mocha Frappe: Add chilled coffee, milk, chocolate and pumpkin syrups, sugar, and ice cubes into your blender, blend until smooth. Pour into a nice frosty glass, top with whipped cream, chocolate syrup, and whatever else your coffee-loving heart desires.
For hot Pumpkin Spice Mocha: Combine hot coffee, chocolate and pumpkin syrups, sugar and milk. Pour into mugs and top with whipped cream and extra syrup.
Enjoy!
