National Frappe Day

Today is National Frappe Day! The frappe is a chilled foam-covered coffee drink that originated in Greece in the 1950s. Today, there are many different variations of this refreshing beverage. In the United States, frappes are usually made with coffee, milk, ice, vanilla ice cream, and sugar combined in a blender.
