It seems frappes are the “in” drink these days and with so many flavors out there it is easy to see why. If you’re not a coffee drinker though or looking for something with more of a traditional fall flavor and the same consistency as a frappe, the Caramel Apple Slushy is perfect.
Ingredients:
Apple cider, approximately 1 cup
1 cup cold apple cider
¼ cup caramel syrup
1 tbsp raw sugar
Instructions:
Fill one full size ice cube tray with apple cider. Freeze for 2-3 hours or until solid.
Combine apple cider ice cubes, cold apple cider, caramel syrup, and raw sugar in blender.
Blend on medium/high speed until ice is crushed and mixture has taken on a slushy consistency.
You can also add a dash of cinnamon if you’d like.
Transfer slushy to mason jar or glass and drizzle additional caramel syrup on top.
Serve immediately.
If desired, add homemade whipped cream to the top prior to drizzling with caramel syrup.

Sounds delicious and definitely inspiring for the fall season. I was truly glad not to see another pumpkin version of a drink for fall. Great idea.
That sounds perfect for me. I can’t drink coffee too often because it makes me jittery. I like the flavor combo.
I wish I would have had this recipe last year. My daughter conned me into buying a jug of apple cider and she never drank it. This sounds fabulous.
That sounds SO good. It’s a perfect fall drink!!
This looks like such a nice treat. I’ll have to make it with the kids! I love that there is raw sugar in the recipe.
Sounds like a much more calorie-friendly option than a frappe. I might have to give this a try!
I have never thought about making it into a slushy! It would be perfect here in TX where the weather is still fairly warm. Great idea!
This sounds like an interesting idea! One I haven’t seen before I will definitely have to check this one out for myself.
This sounds delicious. What a perfect beverage to get you in the fall spirit.
That looks so refreshing… alcohol free… and yummy! I’ll take one.
Now, I’m not much for slushies, but this looks really good! And I love the Mason Jar presentation 🙂
Oh my gosh! I want one right now – looks great!
This definitely calls my name. It sounds super duper yummy and refreshing.
This looks perfect. I love anything apple related. Slush just makes it better.
Oh my gosh this sounds absolutely delicious – I really need to try this. x
Oh my that sounds delicious and so perfect fir a late night treat at a game.
This looks absolutely delicious! I would love to try it!
Wow, my daughter would absolutely love this! Caramel plus apple cider plus slushy — yum!
Apple cider sounds so good at the moment even a slushy sounds good
I was just eying the apple cider at the store the other day. I need to go back for it because this looks fabulous!
That sounds so good! I love apple cider, too 🙂
Sounds like a perfect drink for Fall. I love doing the ice cubes idea
Caramel and apple cider sounds like a delicious combo. This recipe sounds great for fall and for Halloween parties!
Apple cider just brings me to fall… almost as much as anything pumpkin!
Fall=apples in my book! This one seems to be a all year drink! I’m going to have to try it with the ice cube tray! Thanks for sharing the recipe!
Ummm, yum! This sounds amazing! I am going to have to try it.
What a way to start the day! I love that recipe idea.
Sounds delish and would be great for the fall season. Maybe no so much up here in MI where the temps are already starting to drop. I always have a hard time with my smoothies and such when the weather starts to change.
Now this is something so easy to do and would love to give a try.
I bet this is amazing! I will have to try it!
I love this. It looks so easy too. It’s actually perfect for those of us in California and other areas that don’t yet have the fall weather that others in the US are experiencing. Refreshing, but autumn inspired! 😉
My gosh, this sounds so easy and delish! I am going to throw some vanilla ice cream in mine. I love caramel apples.
Excellent! I would have never thought to put these flavors together in a slushy…it’s like a drinkable caramel apple… wonderful….so glad I found this recipe. thank you.
Interesting. I never thought to add caramel to a slushy! But it’s a natural pairing with the apple cider!
