</div><div><br></div><div><div>This is a recipe that has been tweaked that I have made for many years.</div><div><br></div><div>Homemade Starbucks Vanilla Frapuccino</div><div>Yields: 2 Quarts ( ½ Gallon)</div><div>1. Add the following to a 2 Quart carafe:</div><div>2. ¾ Granulated Sugar or 3/4 of a 14 oz can of sweetened condensed milk, approximately 9.5 oz. Both work well but I prefer the Sweetened Condensed Milk.</div><div>3. 2 TBS Instant Folgers Coffee</div><div>4. 1 ½ Cups Hot Water</div><div>5. Add lid to Carafe and swirl until dissolved.</div><div>6. Add these remaining ingredients to carafe:</div><div>7. 7 1/2 Cups Whole Milk (6 Cups if using sweetened condensed milk)</div><div>8. 1 ½-2 Tsp Vanilla Extract</div><div>9. Add lid to carafe and shake well until combined.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>To make a single serving:</div><div>Single Serving 13.7 oz</div><div>2 TBS Granulated Sugar or add sweetened condensed milk to preferred taste. </div><div>1 Tsp Folgers Instant Coffee</div><div>¼ Cup Hot Water</div><div>Add cap to bottle and Swirl until dissolved.</div><div>1 ¼ Cup Whole Milk</div><div>1/4-1/2 Tsp Vanilla Extract</div><div>Add Cap to bottle and Shake until combined. DRINK.</div></div><div><br></div><div>Tip: Add Whipped Topping & Caramel.</div><div>Tip: Add Coffee and Ice to blender to make a frozen frappuccino. </div><div><br></div><div><div>I tweaked this recipe a bit and I think that sweetened condensed milk tastes better than sugar for the sweetened part of it. To fit all of this into a 2 quart container you have to cut the milk to 6 cups instead of 7 1/2 too.</div><div>I love the sweetened condensed milk version but the other isn't bad if you don't have it on hand.</div></div><div><br></div><div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Our son Nathaniel is suffering from a rare childhood cancer.  He is 18 years old and has Alveolar Rhabdomyosarcoma.  As you can imagine this has been devestating to our family.  Nathaniel's cancer is very advanced.  Our trust and faith in God is getting us through this very difficult time.  I hope that you would consider praying for our son today and everyday.  Please above all know that we appreciate this more than anything.  Nathaniel has been suffering from depression and pain due to complications to his health due to the tumors causing issues in the lower abdomen areas.  He is suffering from leg pains and fevers also.  Pray for healing.  We need our son.  We also have 3 other children who need their brother.<br>
Thank you so very much!</p>
