Are you an iced coffee drink lover like I am? I am addicted to that stuff. I make and drink it all year-long.
Every once in a while when I am out shopping I will buy one. The prices are outrageous for a coffee-house style iced coffee drink so I decided to make my own version of a Skinny Salted Caramel Mocha Frappuccino recipe at home. It is so easy to do with just a couple of ingredients.
I like to create my own copycat recipe of those very expensive iced coffee-house drinks at home. I even make my own cold brewed coffee concentrate and vanilla coffee syrup at home. This way I am saving so much and can have my favorite coffee shop drinks whenever I feel like it without leaving the house.
If you're are keeping an eye on the calories and your budget you can still enjoy these popular coffee drinks at home using sugar free versions of International Delight Iced Coffee you can find it at most big box retailers.
The Mocha Caramel Macchiato Shooters recipe I came up with one summer was a big hit with friends and family. I served them a number of times at get togethers.
You could also skinny up that recipe by replacing the regular International Delight Mocha Iced Coffee with the new lighter versions.
All you need are a few sugar free ingredients
- International Delight Zero Mocha Iced Coffee
- International Delight Zero Salted Caramel Coffee Creamer
- No Fat Reddi Whip or favorite whipping cream
- a drizzle of sugar free caramel sauce, optional
I learned a trick to keep my homemade iced coffee from getting watery from the ice by freezing an ice cube tray full of the iced coffee and using them to chill my coffee instead of ice cubes made with water. I make a bunch ahead of time and keep them in the freezer. This way you still get that icy Frappuccino with a rich and creamy flavor.
This skinny Frappuccino version is so easy and if you keep a batch of the frozen iced coffee ice cubes in the freezer you can enjoy one any time you like.
To Make
Measure the Mocha Iced Coffee into the blender, add 6 mocha ice cubes, the creamer and blend in the blender on high.
This recipe will make a single 16-ounce serving or two 8 ounce servings.
Use the crushed ice settings on your blender and blend until the ice cubes are completely crushed.
Pour the Salted Caramel Mocha Frappuccino in a glass, top with no fat Reddi Whip and add a drizzle of sugar-free caramel sauce.
