I never knew how much I needed this machine until my husband opened it up and made my first Frappe. Oh my game changer! The box came with different recipes and instructions on how to make the drinks. I was a bit worried that the drinks would be hard and expensive to make but I was wrong. Milk, flavors, ground coffee and ice seriously thats all you need. My husband has been making me a drink every morning and I seriously love them. With my frappes I havent felt the need to buy energy drinks which is huge for me. I have been addicted to rockstars and redbulls for so long but now I only want frappes and iced coffees. My Mr. Coffee frappe, iced, and hot coffee maker and blender can do everything and is a wonderful tool for making coffee. My machine works amazing and is even nice to look at.  I love it!
