- For a dairy-free version of this Frappuccino, you can use almond milk, coconut milk, or any other non-dairy milk alternative in place of regular milk and dairy-free vanilla ice cream.
Variations for Vanilla Bean Frappuccino:
- Experiment with different flavors of ice cream such as French vanilla or vanilla bean for a unique twist on the classic Vanilla Bean Frappuccino.
