- 1/4 cup caramel sauce

Instructions
- Begin by brewing a cup of your favorite coffee. Allow it to cool to room temperature. This step is crucial to avoid melting the ice too quickly in the next steps.

- Once blended, pour the frappuccino into a tall glass. You can use a spoon to help guide the mixture if necessary.
- Top your frappuccino with a generous swirl of whipped cream. This adds an indulgent touch and makes it visually appealing.
- Drizzle extra caramel sauce over the whipped cream for an extra burst of flavor and a beautiful presentation.
- Serve immediately with a straw or a long spoon. Enjoy your homemade Five Minute Creamy Caramel Frappuccino!
