How To Make Your Own Unicorn Frappe

The Unicorn Frappuccino was a major Starbucks hit, selling out in less than two days when it was supposed to be out for a good week. Unfortunately, many of those having to stand in line to wait for the deliciously, cute drink were unable to get it.

I, witnessing this dilemma, decided to re-create the drink as closely as possible!


So keep scrolling to find out how you can make your own Unicorn Frappe!


1. Things you will need (it's not a lot, trust me)

-A blender of some sorts (I absolutely love the Nutri Ninja)

-Mango ice-cream

-Neon pink food coloring

-Blue icing

-Blue sour candy

-Milk

-Whipped cream

-Ice

2. Scoop Mango ice-cream into blender

I did everything by eye to make enough for one cup so I trust you can do the same :)

*I did about three scoops with the tablespoon*

3. Pour about 1/2 a cup of milk and add a cup of ice

Pretty self-explanatory

4. Add some pink food coloring to get the awesome Unicorn pinkness

My food coloring was powder so I added about 1/2 a teaspoon, but it will vary to how pink you want it.

5. Blend that all together and set aside!

Look how pretty!

6. Place drink in freezer to keep cold while you make the blue sauce

If you are using a blender, pour the drink into a cup and cover it before placing it in the freezer.

7. Take blue candy, chop it into bits, and place in your CLEAN blender


My cutting board is pink, I swear.

8. Squirt some blue frosting into the cup, and blend

I added a bit of milk to the mixture to make it a little more creamy. You want to consistency of a creamy paste.

9. Place mixture in zip-lock bag and freeze for about 10 minutes

*My Ninja blade wasn't sharp enough to cut all the pieces of candy, but I re-tried it with another blender and it worked perfectly!

10. Give a quick shout-out to the nice Starbucks girl who gave you a cup for this project

11. Cut a small hole in the corner of the zip-lock holding the blue sour paste and make squiggly lines in the cup

My squiggles died.

12. Pour pink drink into cup, top with whipped cream and you are done!


Conclusion: It tasted pretty much like the Unicorn Frappe, I just wish it was a little more sour. If anyone has any suggestions to perfecting this recipe, please let me know!

Enjoy:)

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
