Low Carb Mocha Frappuccino (FM)
Recipes | June 27, 2016
*yields one portion
Ingredients
1 1/4 cup ice
3/4 cup brewed medium roast coffee
1 tbsp unsweetened cocoa powder (Ghirardelli)
1 tbsp Swerve (sugar substitute)
1/4 cup whipped coconut cream
dash of cinnamon
___________________
Instructions
- Add ice, coffee, Swerve and cocoa powder into a high performance blender and blend until the ice is crushed into a slush.
- Pour the coffee slush into a glass and top with whipped coconut cream. Sprinkle with ground cinnamon. Drink before it melts!
How to make a whipped coconut cream
- Refrigerate a metal bowl and a can of coconut milk for a few hours. You can also place both into a freezer for about 15 minutes if you don’t want to wait.
- Pour the thickened part of the chilled coconut milk into the cool metal bowl and whisk until you create a cream. Don’t expect it to be as thick as a regular dairy whipped cream, just thick enough to sit on top of the frappuccino.

I went for a dental surgery a few days ago so I spent my entire weekend in and out of pain eating just liquid or mashed food. I did this frappuccino to cheer myself and it worked! 🙂 I love these simple joys of life…

You recover and don’t stress over not working out. You know if you need someone to do a video of a workout you have probably a million women followers who would have no problem doing a video. 😀

Instead of adding ice you could also put the coffee into an ice tray and use that for both. No watered down taste. That’s what I do for my protein drinks, I freeze the fruit.

I do that too. I also freeze almond milk to add to my coffee or smoothies.

Yummm… Trader Joe’s now has little bottles of concentrated liquid coffee that you mix with milk and it’s delicious, I wonder the outcome of using it in this recipe :p
