Frappuccino is Starbucks signature drink.. It traditionally consists of espresso, syrup, low-fat milk and whipped cream.
The frappuccino recipe can hardly be called new. Even before coffee chains appeared in all countries of the world, restaurants and cafes were used to mixing coffee and milk. You can read about the benefits and dangers of coffee with the addition of milk.
The nuance that distinguishes the frappuccino recipe from other recipes is that the creators added crushed ice to the mixture of milk and coffee, and then beat the resulting mixture until a fluffy foam appears.
Topping can be anything. The taste of the drink depends on his choice.
The name of the drink was formed from two words. “Frappe” in French means “chilled”, and the second part of the word comes from the well-known “cappuccino”. In English - frappuccino. Read about how to make cappuccino at home in ours.
For the first time, under this name, it was served in the 90s in one of the American coffee houses in Massachusetts, The Coffee Connection.
In 1994, Starbucks took over this establishment, and a year later both the recipe and the very name of the coffee drink already belonged to this brand. Now Frappuccino is a registered trademark.
Many people have a question regarding the use of this word. Frappuccino - he or it? According to the rules of the Russian language, this the word can be both masculine and neuter.
One frappuccino means "one drink". You can say: "one frappuccino." This will also be correct. The stress in the name of the drink is placed on the 3rd syllable.

Hidden advertising Starbucks from Apple
During the presentation of the first iPhone in 2007, Steve Jobs called Starbucks to demonstrate the capabilities of the new smartphone.
Jobs, using Google Maps, found a nearby coffee shop and dialed the phone number on his iPhone. Having phoned, Apple CEO orders 4,000 lattes in a completely serious voice takeaway, then apologized, explained to the operator that he was joking and generally made a mistake with the number, after which he hung up to the loud laughter of the audience.

To date, there are 100 coffee houses in Russia, of which 71 are located in Moscow, 11 in St. Petersburg.
Many my friends don't see the difference between coffee at McDonald's and Starbucks, believing that I'm just overpaying for the brand by buying drinks there. I think otherwise, seasonal drinks are especially pleasing this winter - walnut-toffee and ginger-gingerbread latte.
Have you been to Russian or foreign Starbucks? Do you like their drinks and similar concept of the place? What interesting things have you tried at Starbucks? We share in the comments.
In the old days, when ordering coffee, you could only add sugar or milk to the drink. Today, Starbucks has changed the way coffee is consumed by creating a wide variety of flavors. You can use additives at your own discretion to come up with a unique recipe that is not on the menu. Here are ten of the most successful combinations that few people know about.
Frappuccino "Dragon"
When the Unicorn themed drink appeared, all coffee connoisseurs literally went crazy over it. Did you know that you can also try the secret and mysterious "Dragon"? Well, now you know. This is an iced coffee with green tea, vanilla powder and berries. Order this drink to get to know the dragons better.
Butter Beer Frappuccino
Let's say dragons don't interest you. What about wizards? This butterbeer flavored drink will make you feel like you're at Hogwarts! Order a creamy iced coffee, top it with three servings of caramel syrup, nut syrup, and caramel topping. Be sure to ask to use whole milk for making coffee - only it will give the desired texture, with skim milk it will not be so tasty at all.
Frappuccino with cake flavor
What could be better than celebrating a birthday? What about celebrating every day! When you order this drink, you will get the brightest emotions, just like on a holiday. For the combination, you need to use vanilla frappuccino and almond flavor. This is the simplest combination, but the result is great. If almond flavor is not available, hazelnut flavor can be used.
Frappuccino with pumpkin-chocolate cookie flavor
Is there anything more interesting and unusual than the combination of pumpkin latte with the flavor of chocolate chip cookies? If there is, it will take a long time to find it. Order a Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookie Frappuccino for a Creamy Pumpkin Frappuccino with Mocha Sauce, Coffee Chips and Cinnamon Syrup. You are guaranteed to enjoy it.
Frappuccino with tiramisu flavor
The tiramisu flavored frappuccino in Japan is on the main menu. It is not available in other countries, but you can still try it if you remember the right combination. For this recipe, order a coffee frappuccino with hazelnut, hazelnut caramel, caramel flan and mocha syrups. Complete the drink with caramelized whipped cream, caramel sauce and chocolate sprinkles. Done, you can enjoy the taste without going to Japan.
Frappuccino "Twix"
Chocolate bars are great, but imagine if you could have such a dessert in the morning instead of coffee! Yes, it doesn't officially taste like the famous candy bar, but you won't be able to tell the difference. Order a caramel frappuccino with hazelnut syrup, coffee chips, whipped cream, caramel sauce and chocolate sprinkles. It will be incredibly delicious.
Frappuccino "Mermaid"
Unfortunately, mermaids don't really exist. But there is an appetizing mermaid frappuccino! The recipe sounds unusual, but believe me, it is quite possible. The base is a vanilla frappuccino with frozen blueberries, then a green drink with white chocolate sauce, coconut syrup and matcha. Top with whipped cream. Try it and make your mermaid dreams come true!
Banana Pie Flavored Frappuccino
If you want to start the day with something extremely appetizing, check out the Banana Pie Flavored Frappuccino. This is a combination of vanilla syrup, nut syrup and a whole banana whipped together with coffee. Top with whipped cream and enjoy the combination of gourmet dessert and coffee in one glass.
Frappuccino with raspberry cheesecake flavor
This is another great option for a drink and dessert in one combination. Order yourself a drink with white chocolate and top it with raspberry syrup. It's a very simple combination, but the best pleasures in life are often simple, so it's definitely worth a try.
Frappuccino "Narwhal"
Unlike dragons and mermaids, narwhals exist. There is also such an unusual recipe! It's strawberry lemonade with vanilla powder, whipped cream and matcha green tea powder on top. This drink is perfect for refreshing on a hot summer day.
A cup of aromatic coffee with a wonderful cake or dessert is an ideal pastime for many. However, too frequent visits to the cafe can affect the figure. Therefore, people who monitor their weight are probably interested in learning about the energy value of the dishes offered by their favorite establishment. Today we will talk about the calorie content of the Starbucks menu.
Currently, the Starbucks coffee chain can be found in almost every city in the world. The institution has become the most popular and profitable in its direction, overtaking its competitors.
background
At the end of the twentieth century in America, three people with the most ordinary professions (a teacher and a writer) decided to do something special, change their lives and start all over again. A lot of ideas visited friends, but, thinking about the next project over a cup of coffee, they came up with the main idea - opening a store where they can sell grains of this drink.
Having recreated the idea, they occasionally held tastings until they realized that people are much more pleasant not to sit at home with hot coffee, but to spend time in a cozy place with company. And soon the shop was retrained into a coffee shop. This served as his expansion and the creation of a whole chain of Starbucks cafes. The menu also expanded, first desserts and other drinks were added, and then main dishes and breakfasts.
Recently, in America, they decided to create a folder with the calorie content of each dish from the menu in every coffee shop, which will help customers make the right choice.
Popular dishes
Frappuccino
The most famous and beloved product in the Starbucks chain is the frappuccino. This is a coffee drink, which includes a lot of syrups and whipped cream. Therefore, it is very high in calories. And about 15 tablespoons of sugar per serving plus heavy cream make it a cocktail for future subcutaneous fat.
The presence of such an amount of sugar causes a feeling of pleasure and addiction in the neural centers, which acts akin to a mild drug. And the composition of syrups includes fructose, which is quite harmful, but a sugar substitute that is beneficial for manufacturers. It tastes much sweeter, and the calorie content is very high. It also acts on neural impulses, causing addiction.
For the sake of 5-minute pleasure, 500 kilocalories is a big enough sacrifice.
Hot chocolate
The most requested drink at Starbucks on Christmas and New Year's Eve is peppermint spiced hot chocolate. The recipe includes heavy cream and chocolate, which are quite nutritious in themselves. And, of course, a large amount of syrups and sugar. Together they make up 750 kilocalories.
If you consider that Starbucks dessert is often taken with a drink, for example, small muffins, which consist of 400 kcal, or cookies with chocolate and cranberries (about 500 kcal), caramel waffles - 200 kcal. at 24, then for one such snack you consume half the daily calorie intake.
Such a gift to your body can really be made only for the New Year.
Other drinks
Latte (220 kcal.) And macchiato (240 kcal.) have the highest calorie content from the menu list. This is because they contain many sweet additives, such as syrup, cream and chocolate. Americano (160 kcal.) The most optimal choice, although it contains a lot of sugar. A cappuccino without sugar will cost 140 kilocalories.
Also on the Starbucks menu are regular tea, mango tea, and spiced tea latte. By itself, tea does not carry many calories. But a large amount of syrup is added to it, which raises the calorie content of ordinary tea in 300 g to 190 kcal, spiced latte tea to 160, and mango tea will consist of 250 kcal.
