History

Coffee holds a special place in American culture, with many mornings starting with the inviting aroma of a freshly brewed cup. The frappe, a frothy chilled coffee drink, was accidentally invented at the Thessaloniki International Fair in Greece in 1957 by a Nestlé representative. Unable to find hot water, he mixed instant coffee with cold water and ice, shaking it to create a new, refreshing beverage. Since then, the frappe has become a global favorite, enjoyed with all kinds of ingredients—ice cream, cream, syrups, fruit, nuts, and more.

Interesting Facts

  • Frappe recipes are endlessly customizable with add-ins like berries, chocolate, or spices.
