Horchata Starbucks Drink Recipe

Prep Time 5 minutes
Total Time 5 minutes
Servings: 1 servings

Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup unsweetened almondmilk
  • 3 tbsp horchata syrup
  • 1 cup ice, packed
  • 2 tbsp white chocolate sauce
  • 1 shot (2 oz) brewed espresso, cooled
  • 2 tbsp heavy cream
  • 1 tsp cinnamon sugar

Method
 

  1. Add the almondmilk, horchata syrup, white chocolate sauce, cooled espresso, and packed ice to a blender. Blend on high for 30 to 45 seconds until completely smooth.
  2. Froth the heavy cream for 20 to 30 seconds until it forms a soft, spoonable foam, then stir in half the cinnamon sugar.
  3. Pour the blended frappuccino into a tall 16 oz glass, spoon the cinnamon cream on top, and dust the remaining cinnamon sugar over the foam.

Notes

The quality of your horchata syrup makes a noticeable difference here, so taste it before you blend and adjust the quantity if it's very sweet or very mild. Cooled espresso is important — hot liquid will thin the drink before you even pour it. Make this right before you drink it; it won't wait.
