Frappuccino of the Week: The Churro Frappuccino 

The churro is a beloved favorite snack for many Californians. A barista (and coffee master) in Orange, California has come up with her version of a “Churro Frappuccino.” Warning: This one is hard to order!

Here’s Cecille’s description of the Churro Frappuccino (in the Grande size): “It’s a syrup creme frappuccino. Blended with cinnamon dolce and white mocha syrup. As well as caramel sugar toppings from the dark caramel frappuccino blended together with the two syrups. On top is regular whipped cream, caramel sauce, cinnamon dolce sprinkles and caramel sugar on top.”

It’s both the caramel ribbon crunch topping and cinnamon dolce sprinkles topping that gets blended into the blender with the one pump of white mocha and one pump of cinnamon dolce syrup. The toppings are the whipped cream, caramel drizzle, cinnamon dolce sprinkles, and the crunchy topping used in the caramel ribbon crunch.

Thank you Cecille for your “Frappuccino of the Week” entry!! I have already sent Cecille a $10 Starbucks Roastery Card as a thank you for her submission.

I tried this one myself too – It’s a little complicated to order but a delicious once in a while treat. It does conjure upa churro, which was a staple of my diet growing up in Southern California!
