Welcome to a delightful twist on your favorite coffee shop indulgence! This Pistachio Coffee Frappuccino is a homemade version of the beloved Starbucks treat, combining the rich flavors of coffee with the nutty essence of pistachios. Inspired by the growing trend of nut-infused coffee beverages, this recipe brings together the best of both worlds.
We use a medium roast coffee, cold brewed for 12 hours to extract maximum flavor without bitterness. The pistachio syrup is homemade, ensuring a natural and intense nutty taste. Blended with creamy milk, ice, and a touch of sweetness, this frappuccino is topped with a generous dollop of whipped cream and crushed pistachios for added texture and visual appeal. It's the perfect balance of indulgence and refreshment, ideal for warm summer days or as a special treat any time of year.
