Whisk heavy cream and vanilla syrup to make whipped cream. Set aside.
Use a handheld milk frother to make whipped cream in seconds. It should take about 30-50 seconds to get soft-medium peaks.
¼ cup heavy cream, 1 tablespoon vanilla syrup
Blend milk, pumpkin spice sauce, homemade Frappuccino base syrup, instant coffee, and ice until smooth.
Put ingredients into the blender in the order listed. Start the blender on low for 10 seconds, then turn it up to high until smooth.
½ cup whole milk, 2 tablespoons pumpkin spice sauce, 1 tablespoon homemade Frappuccino base syrup, 1 ½ teaspoons instant coffee, 1 cup ice
Pour Frappuccino into a cup. Spoon on whipped cream and garnish with pumpkin spice topping.
Serve immediately.
½ teaspoon pumpkin spice topping

Make the homemade Frappuccino base syrup first. You can make a batch ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator.
If you don’t want to use the Frappuccino base syrup, you can replace it with the same amount of simple syrup to match the sweetness, but the texture won’t be the same.
Frappuccinos at Starbucks are made with whole milk but you can use any milk you like.
If you don't have vanilla syrup to make the whipped cream, you can replace it with 2 teaspoons of sugar.
