Caramel Mocha Frappé

Ninja SLUSHi Recipe

A smooth, café-style Caramel Mocha Frappé made right in the Ninja SLUSHi Max using SlushAssist mode. If you’re using another model, try the Frappé preset—or Manual mode at 2 bars—for the same rich, creamy result.

If you’ve been wondering whether the Ninja SLUSHi Max can make frappés, you’re not alone. A lot of people have asked about it since the Max doesn’t include a dedicated frappé preset. The quick start guide does include a couple frappé recipes that use SlushAssist mode, so I decided to give it a try myself.
I made a Caramel Mocha Frappé, and it turned out incredibly smooth and creamy — honestly the best texture I’ve had yet on a Ninja SLUSHi machine. The mix of caramel, chocolate, and coffee hits that perfect balance between rich and refreshing.
If you don’t have the Max, you can still make this recipe on other Ninja SLUSHi models using the Frappé preset. And if your model doesn’t have that option either, try running it on Manual mode set to 2 bars for a similar result.
Either way, you’ll end up with a café-style drink that’s perfect for a morning pick-me-up or an afternoon treat.

Ninja SLUSHi Max

Frozen drink maker

The Ninja SLUSHi Max is my top recommendation thanks to its larger capacity, faster freezing, and convenient Slush Assist setting. It can make bigger batches in less time, making it ideal for parties and entertaining. Slush Assist automatically adjusts the settings to help you get the perfect consistency without the guesswork.

Instructions

Combine the ingredients
  • In a large pitcher, whisk together the chilled coffee, half & half, caramel sauce, and chocolate syrup until smooth and fully blended.
Choose your setting
  • Ninja SLUSHi Max: Pour the mixture into the pitcher and select SlushAssist mode.
  • Other Ninja SLUSHi models: Use the Frappé preset if your machine has it.
  • Manual models: If your model doesn’t include a Frappé preset, use Manual mode set to 2 bars to achieve a similar consistency.
Slush to perfection
  • Let the machine work until the texture is thick, frosty, and smooth—similar to a blended coffee drink you’d get from a café.
Serve and garnish
  • Pour into glasses and top with whipped cream. Drizzle caramel and chocolate syrup over the top, then finish with a sprinkle of chocolate shavings.
