I’m not normally a coffee drinker but I did develop a love for coffee Frappuccino’s from Starbucks back some time ago! I used to drink them all year round regardless if it was 50 or 100 degrees F outside.
Little did I know back then that a grande coffee Frappuccino contains 50 grams of carbs. Yes, you heard that right, 50g!!
Knowing what I know now, I’ll never touch one of those things again but boy do I miss them!
If you’ve been following our social media, you know that we’ve recently been doing a few low-carb/keto copycat drink recipes such as the Keto Pink Drink and the Keto White Drink, which by the way are delicious so check them out!
So of course, I had to try my hand at a copycat low-carb/keto Starbucks Coffee Frappuccino and let me tell you, it ‘ll knock your socks off it’s that good!!
At first we tried making it with strong brewed coffee but the Frappuccino tasted watered down and not quite like Starbucks so we decided to give instant coffee a shot and it was definitely the right choice.
This copycat Frappuccino recipe is bursting with bold coffee flavors and best of all it is very low in carbs.
To make this drink similar to a Starbucks Frappuccino, you need a powerful blender so that you can get that smooth icy consistency.
We used a Vitamix Blender and it does a very good job but I know there are plenty of other good blenders on the market so do your research to see which one works best for you.
For this one, you will need Swerve/Monkfruit and some kind of instant coffee (granular) as the special ingredient. Both can be purchased on Amazon or a local supermarket.
Now, let’s get started!

Hi guys, looks like another winner! Just wondering, what is used for the whip cream stuff on the top?
Hey Tony! It’s just canned whipping cream on top.
Excellent, for some reason I thought there was more sugar and carbs in that stuff. Thank you, off to Nijiya market for the UCC coffee!
We didn’t count the carbs of the whipping cream since it’s optional, but it would add around 1g carb (1g carb per 2 tbsp). Yeah, whipping cream is surprising low in carbs given it tastes pretty sweet! Have fun at Nijiya!
