Japan's American Cherry Pie Frappuccino
We're re-creating the limited edition Starbucks American Cherry Pie Frappuccino exclusive only to Japan.
Ingredients
Cherry Compote
- 1 can drained pitted cherries (in syrup)
- 1 tablespoon syrup
- 1 teaspoon caster sugar
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
Frappuccino
- Ice
- 8 scoops vanilla ice cream
- Whole milk
- 1 teaspoon caster sugar
- Vanilla extract (optional)
- Whipped cream
- Sweet shortcrust pastry
Steps
Cherry Compote
- In a small saucepan, stir together the cherries, syrup and caster sugar. Bring to a boil and let simmer for around 10 minutes until the sauce has reduced. When the cherries start to soften use a wooden spoon to break them up and release their juice.
- Stir in the lemon juice and mash or blitz the compote until the pieces are small enough to fit through a straw. Take off the heat and leave to cool.
- Roll pastry 2-4mm thick. Make a foil template of the lid by pushing foil into the bottom of a Starbucks lid. This will be used to create a pastry dome.
- Cut out the pastry and drape it over the foil template. This needs to be small enough to fit on top of your drink. Prick with a cocktail stick and bake in a pre-heated oven at 200°C for 15-20 minutes until golden.
Frappuccino
- Add the ice cubes and ice cream into a blender followed by the milk, sugar and vanilla extract to taste. Add more milk if you would like it runnier and less if you prefer it thick. Blitz until smooth.
- Spoon some cooled cherry compote into the bottom of your serving cup or glass followed by the vanilla Frappuccino. Top with some more cherry compote.
- Decorate the top with whipped cream, remove the foil from the cooled pastry dome and place it on top. Add the lid and pierce the pastry with a straw and it's ready to enjoy :D
