Who doesn't love a refreshing and delicious drink on hot days? The Coupe frappé is a quick and simple dessert, perfect for cooling off and enjoying a moment of indulgence. This recipe combines the intense flavors of coffee with the chill of ice cream and chocolate, creating a unique taste experience. Plus, it's easy to customize to your tastes!

Ingredients needed:

- 2 ice cubes
- 4 cubes of frozen milk (we recommend whole milk for a creamier taste)
- 1 packet of Jacobs Ice Coffee with mint flavor (or your favorite flavor)
- 1 teaspoon of brown sugar (adds a caramel note)
- 2 squares of chocolate (you can use dark, milk, or white chocolate depending on your preference)
- 2 tablespoons of chocolate ice cream (for added creaminess and flavor)

Step by step: Preparing the Frappé

1. Preparing the ice: Start by adding the two ice cubes to a blender. Blend until they become a fine granulate. This step is essential for achieving the perfect texture.

2. Preserving the ice: Once the ice is well crushed, transfer it to a glass and place it in the freezer for a few minutes. This will help keep the drink cool and prevent it from diluting.

3. Mixing the ingredients: In the same blender (without washing), add the remaining ingredients: frozen milk, the packet of Jacobs Ice Coffee with mint, brown sugar, chocolate squares, and chocolate ice cream. Blend everything until you achieve a smooth and creamy mixture.

4. Finalizing the drink: Remove the glass from the freezer and pour the mixture over the ice. You can blend lightly for another 2 seconds to combine the flavors, but don’t overdo it; you want to keep the airy texture.

5. Serving: Pour the frappé into elegant cups. You can decorate with whipped cream on top, grated chocolate, or a few fresh mint leaves for a more attractive look. This drink pairs perfectly with a fruit pie or crunchy cookies.

Helpful tips for a perfect result:

- Ice: Make sure to use fresh ice, as older ice can alter the taste of the drink.
- Flavors: Although the recipe uses mint coffee, feel free to experiment with other flavors like vanilla or caramel, depending on your preferences.
- Ice cream: You can substitute chocolate ice cream with other types like vanilla or mint to create interesting combinations.
- Sugar: Adjust the amount of sugar according to how sweet you want the drink to be.
