Starbucks says that its frappuccino recipe was invented in 1995 by Greg Rogers, an assistant manager of a Starbucks Store on Santa Monica's Third Street Promenade and was launched on April Fool's Day in 1995. Rogers received an award from Starbucks for his contribution.
Some sources say that a very similar frozen coffee drink was invented by The Coffee Connection, a small Boston-based chain later acquired by Starbucks, and that the name Frappuccino was coined by The Coffee Connection. In this etymology, the term frappuccino is a blend of frappe, a local Boston term for milkshake and cappuccino, the coffee drink with a milky topping
Similar frozen coffee drinks were served starting in 1988 by the Seattle chain Cinnabon under the names Mochalatta and Caramelatta.
The name of the drink is a portmanteau of "frappé" (French for "beaten") or "frappe" (New England name for ice cream milkshake) and "cappuccino".
Original
The original frappuccino is a blend of ice and a mix constituted of coffee, water, milk, and various syrups. The result is a beverage that is a little icy like a slush, but with a consistency that is similar to a thin milkshake.
In 2004, Starbucks created a "Light" version. The Light version of the Coffee Frappuccino has 54% of the calories, 17% of the fat (0.5g vs 3g), and 52% of the carbohydrates of the original.Nutrition Information for Starbucks Beverages (July 29, 2007). This version is prepared the same way as the original but uses a modified flavoring mix with less fat and Splenda as a sweetener.
Decaf
Starbucks also serves decaffeinated versions of the coffee-based frappuccinos, which like all decaffeinated coffees, contain small amounts of caffeine.
Crème
Alternatively, coffee-free "cream" base (what Starbucks calls Crème Beverage Base or CBB) was created to make the popular blended Crèmes. This was made to create a beverage that non-coffee drinkers could enjoy and still be able to "relax" in the coffeehouse atmosphere, thus still being able to enjoy what Starbucks calls the Third Place. This version is made by combining one part skim milk with one part CBB Powdered Mix (normally containing sugar, flavorings, thickeners and other minor proprietary ingredients). The CBB mix replaced a similar mixture called UBB, or Universal Beverage Base, in 2006. The most notable change between the two is that the newer CBB mixture does not require a "settling period" in which the UBB/milk combination would need to be chilled for a period of time to settle and thicken. Unlike the coffee version, this prepared mix is usually not ordered after just blending with ice; the result is relatively bland. Flavoring of some sort is almost always added before consuming. Liquid or powdered tea is also used in some versions prepared at retail locations, most of the time making the "Tea Blended Crème".
Crème "Light"
For the 2007 Summer season, Starbucks has introduced a "Light" variety of the Creme Base. This, as with the Coffee Light base, is made with Splenda, soy powder traces and contains approximately 1/3 less calories. Crème Light frappuccinos do not come by default with whipped cream, though it can be added on request.
