Love it!
I love making coffee drinks in my blender. I just change up the milk to soy and caramel sauce to date caramel sauce and it goes from low cholesterol to no cholesterol. ;)

Perfect afternoon treat
If you aren't a fan of sweet drinks, this may not be for you, or you may need to cut back on the sugar. This was a perfect afternoon pick-me-up. I didn't have espresso on hand and used Starbuck's Cold Brew. It was still good, but I could definitely have gone for a stronger coffee flavour. Will try again will espresso.

Loves this!
So good and easy! Definitely can save money making these at home rather than going to the coffee shop

Sugar, balanced but espresso taste, barely there.
Following the week 1 guide, I have stumbled upon this smoothie. I got to say I have decided to go towards a more natural recipe without changing the recipe too much. Here are the ingredients I have used. I cut the recipe by 2 so that I could fit it in my Vitamix travel cup.
-Earth's Own Almond Coconut milk
-Cacao Barry organic dark chocolate Plantation Alto el Sol 65%
-Silly Cow Farms Chocolate powder
-Nespresso Ice coffee espresso capsule
-Cherry River Bitter Pear and Caramel
-Ice
My final thoughts, it's a well balanced frappé but for me, I prefer a more consistent texture in such a drink and the espresso taste was not present enough to my liking. Either the ice added to the almond coconut milk dissipated the whole thing and brought a more watery taste and texture or there wasn't enough chocolate pellets added. I vote for the ice as the culprit. Also, using whole milk as the recipe suggested would give out a much better result!

Delish but needs more coffee!
This recipe is delicious. Instead of 1 cup whole milk and half a cup espresso, I used 1.5 cups oat milk and added three teaspoons of espresso powder - that seemed to increase the coffee flavor much more. But the flavor is still subtle! I also cut the caramel sauce in half and used chocolate protein powder instead of chocolate milk powder. Yum!

Pretty good
Tweaked the recipe a bit, but its a good base line tp start. The vitamix is just a complete game changer for making blended drinks. Adding a touch of xanthan gum to any frozen blended drink goes a long way and gives you the texture people try to recreate from coffee shops like Starbucks.

Delicious
I can safely say I am I love with my new vitamin, I don’t drink coffee but I always do crave a frappe and this one turned out so frothy and delicious. The vitamix is unmatched by any other blender out there!
