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:)

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.

December... it's full of finals, due dates, Mariah Carey, and the holidays. It's the worst time of the year, but the best because after finals, you get to not think about classes for a month and catch up on all the sleep you lost throughout the semester. But what's worse than finals week is the last week of classes, when all the due dates you've put off can no longer be put off anymore.
