The Frappécito: A Whipped Coffee Recipe Inspired by FLO

Posted on September 5, 2020September 5, 2020 by Mandy Mizell

Both the Frappé and Cafecito have similar elements of being strong coffee with a touch of sweetness.

Lake Worth has a strong Mexican influence. It’s evident with the taco trucks on every other corner, the gentlemen selling fresh sunflowers at major intersections, and the absence of Publix replaced by storefronts like “El Bodegon” and “El Presidente Supermercado.” Mexican food initially brought me to Lake Worth, what keeps me returning is new revelations […]
