Coffee frappé is a refreshing beverage that has its roots in Greece, created by accident in 1957 during a food trade fair. Since then, it has gained popularity all over the world, especially in Latin American countries where it is often known as "café frappé", "iced coffee" or simply "frappé". In some places it is also called "cold coffee with cream" or "cold blended coffee". This drink combines the intensity of coffee with the freshness of ice, making it ideal for hot days and for coffee lovers looking for a lighter and creamier option.
In different Latin American countries, its preparation may vary slightly, adding ingredients like condensed milk, vanilla, or even liquor, but the essence remains the mix of coffee and ice. It is common to find it served in coffee shops, restaurants, and at home as a practical and delicious alternative to enjoy coffee in a different way.
