UPDATE: 2017 - I have not seen these Frappe Makers lately so I went to Amazon to check links and they are hard to find! Only 2 are listed on Amazon right now and you'd be crazy to buy them as one is a Japanese seller with a USED item and listing at $425. Don't do that!! I will put a couple similar links at the bottom of this post but don't spend over $99 on something like this.
The recipes however can be useful - just adapt it to whatever style machine you are using.
I have posted about one of my 'fun' coffee appliances but this morning I decided to mention it again because I feel like no one knows this product even exists... yet if they knew, I think they would love it! I use it constantly... and admittedly, not always for coffee or tea drinks, as it's powerful 'blender' is great for crushing ice for a homemade icee or Hawaiian Ice style drink- I just add flavored sugar free syrups from Torani or even the ICEE brand you can purchase online or in some stores (I found it at my Super Walmart but my Publix no longer stocks it). (Amazon has it; ICEE Zero Liquid Water Enhancer
