This is one you may not know by this name, but it’s pretty popular on TikTok. This one does take a little bit longer to make but if you are following the Keto diet and want that drink, it’s worth the wait!
5. Matcha Green Tea Frapp
Green tea has a ton of healthy perks and this recipe allows you to make your own at home for half the price! Again only a five-ingredient drink and if you love matcha you likely already have everything you need! (Make the Iced Matcha Latte at home too)

11. Vanilla Frappuccino
A classic but still a good pick, the vanilla frappuccino is super easy to make at home! What’s even better is this one only needs three ingredients and the kids can have it too! (Grab some of the Starbucks reusable cups to give the kids a treat)
