The story of the frappe is fascinating, with roots in coffee culture, and it quickly became a popular choice worldwide. This drink is a symbol of summer and relaxation, often associated with moments of indulgence on a hot day.

Ingredients:
- 200 ml milk (preferably whole for a creamier texture)
- 200 ml liquid cream (this will add a decadent touch)
- 200 ml cold water (you can use mineral water for a more interesting taste)
- 3 teaspoons instant coffee (nes)
- 3 teaspoons sugar (adjustable according to preferences)
- Ice cubes (for a refreshing frappe)
- Grated chocolate or cocoa (for decoration)

Preparation method:
1. Start by gathering all the necessary ingredients. Make sure you have a powerful blender, which will help achieve a frothy texture.
2. In the blender, first add the cold water, then the milk and liquid cream. This order will ensure an even mixing of the ingredients.
3. Add the instant coffee mixed with sugar. It is important to mix these two ingredients well to avoid coffee lumps.
4. Now, turn on the blender at medium speed and let it run for 1-2 minutes. You will notice how the mixture becomes frothy and creamy, perfect for a delicious frappe.
5. While the blender is working, prepare two tall glasses. Add some ice cubes to each glass to keep the drink cold and refreshing.
6. Once the mixture is ready, carefully pour it into the glasses, filling them to the brim.
7. Decorate each frappe with grated chocolate or sprinkle a little cocoa on top for an elegant and tempting look.

Serving:
For a personal touch, you can add a rose with velvety petals next to the glass. This will not only add a decorative element but also provide a subtle floral aroma that perfectly complements the drink. The frappe is delicious served immediately but can be refrigerated for a few minutes if you want to enjoy it later.

Nutritional benefits:
This frappe contains milk, which is a good source of calcium and protein, and coffee has antioxidant content. Liquid cream, although richer in calories, provides a creamy texture that makes this drink a true delight. However, for those looking to reduce calorie intake, there are low-fat cream options or almond milk that can be used as alternatives.

Frequently asked questions:
- Can I use brewed coffee instead of instant coffee?
Yes, you can use brewed coffee, but make sure it is well concentrated and cooled before adding it to the blender.

- How can I make this frappe less sweet?
You can reduce the amount of sugar or use a natural sweetener like stevia or erythritol.

- What other ingredients can I add to customize the recipe?
You can experiment with flavors like vanilla, cinnamon, or even a splash of almond extract to add a unique taste.

Possible variations:
For a more exotic version, you can add a fruit puree, such as bananas or strawberries, to your frappe mixture. These will not only enrich the flavor but also add a splash of vibrant color to your drink.

Recommended combinations:
This frappe pairs perfectly with a light dessert, such as chocolate cookies or a moist cake. Additionally, a refreshing lemon-based drink or a fruit smoothie can perfectly complement a meal.
