Whisk heavy cream and vanilla syrup to make whipped cream. Set aside.
Use a handheld milk frother to make whipped cream in seconds. The longer you whisk the heavy cream, the stiffer it’ll get. It should take about 30-50 seconds to get soft-medium peaks.
¼ cup heavy cream, 1 tablespoon vanilla syrup
Blend milk, white chocolate 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 high until smooth.
⅔ cup whole milk, 2 tablespoons white chocolate sauce, 1 tablespoon homemade Frappuccino base syrup, 1 ½ teaspoons instant coffee, 1 cup ice
Pour in Frappuccino into a cup. Top drink with whipped cream.
Serve immediately.

Make the homemade Frappuccino base syrup first. You can make it ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator.
Homemade Frappuccino base syrup is made with xanthan gum, a thickener that creates that smooth Frappuccino texture. If you don’t want to use the base syrup, you can use simple syrup instead to match the sweetness, but the texture won’t be the same.
Instead of vanilla syrup, you can flavor the whipped cream using white chocolate sauce. Replace the vanilla syrup in the recipe with white chocolate sauce.
Frappuccinos are made with whole milk but you can use any milk you like. But note that whole milk creates a richer, creamier Frappuccino.
