Shark Attack Frappuccino
If you love Starbucks then it’s likely in the heat of Summer you may have tried a Frappuccino. With Shark Week coming why not have a delicious shark attack Frappuccino! Loaded with shark ice cream and pureed strawberries this Frappuccino is caffeine free and fun for the whole family.
There is a few tricks to making this Frappuccino perfect. First, freeze your strawberries ahead of time. This allows the strawberries to be the same temperature as the liquid you are adding. It also allows the strawberry puree to stick better to the side of the cup.
While you could replace the strawberry puree with strawberry syrup it just doesn’t have the same effect that you get when you add the puree. I usually just buy frozen strawberries and blend them with a little water.
The Ice Cream
Second, this recipe starts with blue shark ice cream. We use it from another recipe here on the blog. You can however, use a blue sherbet ice cream along with vanilla ice cream. We just used our own no churn ice cream for more shark loving fun!
Third, have extra milk. Sometimes the ice cream can be too thick or a little too much ice is added that you need to add a little more milk to make the Frappuccino drinkable through a straw. Making a frappuccino from scratch is so much fun!
Once you make one Frappuccino from scratch you will want to make all kinds of different Frappuccino’s for fun. In this shark attack Frappuccino we used blue shark gummies we bought off amazon. Sometimes the shark gummies are hard to find at local candy stores.
Make this shark frappe with some other shark recipes. Check out a few more shark recipes below to eat while watching Shark Week. I’d love to know below what your favorite part of Shark Week is!
