Instructions
 

Firework Frappuccino Instructions

  • In a large jar, shake together Summer Berry Refresher base and coconut milk.
  • Pour mixture into blender and add xanthan gum (or corn starch) and ice. Process until smooth and frothy.
  • Put raspberry pearls and their liquid in the bottom of a cup and pour Frappuccino mixture over them.
  • Top with a layer of strawberry puree, followed by a layer of vanilla sweet cream cold foam.

Summer Berry Refresher Base Instructions

  • Add berry syrup, water, citric acid, green coffee bean powder (if using), and blue spirulina to a large jar or container. Shake well to combine and refrigerate until ready to use.

Berry Syrup Instructions

  • Put water and sugar in medium-size saucepan and bring mixture to a boil.
  • Once boiling, lower heat and let simmer for about 10 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and stir in blueberry, raspberry, and blackberry extracts.
  • Pour syrup into a mason jar or bowl and place in fridge to cool completely before using. Syrup will continue to thicken as it cools.

Vanilla Sweet Cream Cold Foam Instructions

  • Mix milk, cream, and vanilla syrup in a mason jar and shake to combine. Alternatively, you can stir all ingredients together in a bowl. If you're not using right away, keep in an airtight container in the fridge.
  • Turn mixture into cold foam right before using. You can either use an electric frother, hand mixer, or blender. Just add the sweet cream and froth, mix, or blend until the mixture turns into a foam.
