Save money and skip the Starbucks line! This delicious Banana Vanilla Bean Frappuccino is a healthier way to get your coffee fix! Made with a just few simple ingredients, it will be your new favorite treat!
I use coconut ice cream (making it vegan-friendly and extra delicious). I happen to love So Delicious brand coconut milk ice cream. It really tastes like regular ice cream but with a creamy coconut taste. I also add some left over coffee from the morning (I personally use decaf coffee so I don't mind giving to the kids). Interestingly enough, the Starbucks version is sans coffee, but to me the coffee flavor is the best part!
To make it a bit more satisfying and rich, I add in half of a banana, some ice and top it off with a sprinkle of cinnamon! So simple and so yummy!
