Starbucks Fakeuccino
I had a Starbucks Frappuccino and LOVED it the minute i had it, but it cost me about $2.50? This does not taste like the actual Frappuccino but is a way to reuse the bottle and make your own "Fakeuccino".
Label (optional)
de-cap the lid of the bottle and look closely at the bottle. de-label (back side) the bottle and take a closer look at this label (ingredients or Contains:)

Wash Em
Wash the bottles and lids. The bottles will air dry fine, but the lids need special attention... after washing them, take a look at their undersides. in all the groves of latex can hide little coffee bits, make sure you get them.
Don't Cry, Its O.K.
No need to cry but you can put away your old Starbucks Coffee cup.
How Much Does One Bottle Hold?
A bottle holds 2 cups, the picture says 1 1/2 but that is WRONG! you will see i added extra in the brewing step...
Coffee Choice
You can choose many flavors, decaf, caffeinated, etc. For this, just buy the flavorless coffee.

So, How Much $ Do I Actually Save a Month?
an average month is 30 days. This is how much you save by using the recipe I PROVIDED.
Frap's
1 pack of 12 fraps - $25.00
$25 \ 12 fraps = $2.08
$2.08 * 30 Month=
TOTAL = 62.40
Fake's
1 pack of 108 K-Cups = $54.99
$54.99 \ 108 cups = $.50 per cup
$.50 * 30 = $15 month
gallon of milk = $3.50 roughly
Swis Miss hot cocoa = $19.87 - 80 ounce
4 tbsp = 2 ounces (close enough)
TOTAL = 38.37
(this is with the whole hot cocoa container since i don't know how many tbsp is in 80 ounces!)
Although it does not taste the exact same, you save....
$24.03 every month, this could seem like a little , But...
1 Month = 24.03
2 = 48.06
3 = 72.09
4 = 96.12
5 = 120.15
6 = 144.18
7 = 168.21
8 = 192.24
9 = 216.27
10 = 240.30
11 = 264.33
year = 288.36
Its not much but you still are saving little by little!
