Bring the coffee shop to your house with this eggnog frappuccino that’s easy to make at home– all you need is eggnog, banana, coffee, (protein powder— if you wish) and a blender!
It’s that time of year where eggnog and peppermint and Christmas lights and fresh pine scents are my EVERYTHING! Last night we decorated our Christmas tree and I’ve been listening to Christmas music and watching Elf on repeat while sipping on homemade peppermint hot chocolate. And today I’m drinking this Eggnog Frappuccino by my Christmas tree.
Don’t you just love the smell of a fresh Christmas tree?? I can’t get enough. Who’s with me?
I made this Eggnog Frappuccino recipe on the blog a few years back but wanted to bring it back to life and make a fresh batch for you today with some new photos! 🙂
This eggnog frappuccino is like the drink you get at your coffee shop but so easy to make at home and BONUS >>> it’s protein packed! You can sub in a holiday nog for traditional eggnog to shave a little calories/sugar too or go for a low fat eggnog to keep this drink healthy and still tasty.
Just a little Eggnog Frappuccino and Christmas jingles and pine scented candles.
That is all you need.

I absolutely love eggnog. I always buy the Silk version to stay dairy free and I can’t wait to try and make this! I would have never thought to put a banana in it.

Ooo! Hope you love it!

I saw this Bolthouse Nog at the store (I love their products too!) – glad to see a festive post on it and what a great way to use it! Love the idea and can't wait to try some myself 🙂
Love & Zest says
Thanks Ashley. I'm a little obsessed with this concoction, in fact I've had it nearly every day 🙂
Kiersten @ OMV says
Ooh, I haven't seen that in stores before! I totally need to look for it–I love the Bolthouse chai. 🙂
Love & Zest says
It's the first year that I've seen it, so I wondered if it was new. I haven't tried Bolthouse chai… must buy ASAP.

Hehe you're so adorable, Kristina! Hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Our Christmas tree is not up yet but I've been listening to a lot of Christmas music on the radio. It certainly doesn't feel like December (the weather was quite chilly last week here in Texas, but it's warming up again)…but then again, I'm used to it by now.
As for this drink, I've never thought to add protein powder to coffee. I shall def give it a try ;). Thank you for the inspiration. Hope you have a blessed week!

Thanks Min! We are having the same weather issues in FL. I was in AL for thanksgiving and it was frigid for a change!
