Homemade Mexican Chocolate Frappes are easy to make. This sweet, cold drink has just a bit of heat. It’s the perfect summer treat.
Frappes are one of our favorite treats on a hot day. It feels like a decadent dessert, but it’s super easy to make and it’s mostly ice (which is my story, and I’m sticking to it!). They charge $5 and $6 a pop at coffee shops. When it only takes 5 minutes to make, well, you can see why I’m obsessed with making them at home. These frappes don’t contain any coffee. It’s how I roll in life. And that’s okay. This isn’t meant to be a mocha frappe. That would be a completely different recipe.
Mexican Chocolate is far and away my husband’s favorite frappe. Cinnamon and cayenne bring a level of warmth to this icey drink. Spicy and sweet is a fantastic combination! Be sure to check out some of our other favorites including Chocolate Chip Frappes and Salted Caramel.
I’ve created a video to walk you through the process. It should answer any questions you might have about making these delicious drinks.

I have more than 100 restaurant quality recipes you can easily make at home all in my own short and simple cooking show. Ya, that’s right, I gave myself my own show. I deserved it! 🙂
