This ultra creamy delicious Peppermint Frappuccino is made in just minutes! You will love this festive holiday drink!

The second most searched recipe here on Maebells is my Vanilla Bean Frappuccino. There is a very good reason for that. It is good, darn good. It is actually one of my most made recipes here at home too. I love it! It is super addictive and will eventually make me very poor because I spend all my pennies on vanilla beans!

A few weeks ago I was home alone doing some recipe testing for the blog. I decided I needed a little pick me up so I got out all of my ingredients to make a Vanilla Bean Frappuccino when I saw a package of candy canes sitting right next to the blender. Frappuncino? Candy canes? Why had no one thought of this earlier!

This Peppermint Frappuccino is full of minty vanilla flavor! It is the perfect festive drink for the holidays if you are looking for a light, non alcoholic, non coffee drink! It has all of the creaminess of a milk shake without the calories because in place of ice cream I use frozen fat free cool whip! And as a big bonus it has simple ingredients you probably already have on hand!

It is sure to be a winner at your next holiday get together! Or a Saturday afternoon snack!

    Yum! I love frappuccino's - a peppermint one is a great idea! Might have to make a mocha version of this, because I have this need to add coffee to any frappuccino type drink that I have! But I will have to make this version for the kids, they would love this!

    So smart to use fat free cool whip! That is way healthier than the stuff I'm ordering at Starbucks. Funny story, I had a roommate in college who did weight watchers, and apparently fat free cool whip is 0 points. She would eat like a tub of it a day! I was like, "I think that's defeating the purpose". Haha! This is a much better use for it. And peppermint is perfect for this time of year!

      hahahahaha! I love this! There was a girl in one of my college classes who would bring a whole pineapple to class EVERY single day. Like uncut, completely together pineapple. She would slice it and eat the whole thing during class because it was zero points! haha!

      Thanks Katie!! I have seen all these great holiday drinks but most of them kids can't have so I really wanted something that a whole family could enjoy, and who doesn't like candy canes?!

    Awhile a go I spent a lot of pennies on vanilla beans, but now I'm so stingy about using them! But when I do actually use them, I am amazed at what a difference it makes compared to vanilla extract...so good! These frappuccinos look sooooo delish, I have not had a single peppermint mocha yet this holiday season and that is a travesty. These are on my list!

      I am with ya! They are SO expensive! Is there a cost plus world market in Canada? They are like a fourth of the price there than at the grocery! I go and buy like a dozen packages! :)

    This frappuccino looks amazing, Annie! Peppermint is my favorite holiday flavor, so I'm loving your creative spin on this drink! I could definitely go for this right now instead of my boring cup of coffee. And gorgeous pictures, too! :)
