- ½ cup whipped cream
- 1 tsp vanilla extract

Why Make Your Green Tea Frappuccino at Home?
You may be wondering why you should do all this work when you can go out and buy one for yourself. Making it yourself gives you the freedom to choose the ingredients yourself. You can add or subtract ingredients, all depending on what type of flavor you’re trying to go for. This also gives you more control over the number of calories you ingest.
If you were to visit a local coffee/tea shop, a ready-made drink could have any type of ingredients. This normally makes it harder to keep track of everything you’re putting in your body.
When you make your green tea frappuccino yourself, you can choose which blend of green tea goes in your drink. If you like a certain blend you may find it hard to get it in cafes because they use the ones that sell the most and make them the most money. This could lead to a quality of drink that is, well, questionable.
When you make it yourself, you will also realize it is not as expensive as those big brands charge you for it. Be careful though, you may never want to spend another penny on green tea frappuccinos when you can whip it up for yourself at home with this great recipe.
