A Frappuccino typically contains coffee or espresso, milk, and ice, topped with whipped cream and often flavored with various syrups and garnishes.

Here's a breakdown of the typical components of a Frappuccino:

  • Base Ingredients:

    • Coffee or Espresso: Provides the coffee flavor.
    • Milk: Contributes to the creamy texture.
    • Ice: Creates the blended, icy consistency.
  • Topping:

    • Whipped Cream: A standard topping that adds sweetness and a creamy texture.
  • Flavorings and Garnishes: (These vary widely depending on the specific Frappuccino)

    • Syrups: Used to add different flavors like caramel, vanilla, chocolate, etc.
    • Sauces: Similar to syrups but thicker, like mocha or dark caramel sauce.
    • Toppings: Such as chocolate shavings, sprinkles, or cookie crumbs.

As stated by the reference, the specific ingredients for each flavor of Frappuccino, along with calorie counts, can be found on the Starbucks website. The basic components, however, remain the same: coffee (or espresso), milk, and ice.
