Starbucks Java Chip Frappucino?

Question

so i have the recipe to make it. However, do you know where i can purchase the chocolate syrup that starbucks use in England? or if i cant, is there an alternative chocolate syrup that is close to the stabucks flavour and gives a nice taste? because i can tell you that melting cadburys dairy milk chocolate does not work however good you think the idea is at the time:P.

does anyone know how they make their chocolate syrup? what ingredients they use? so then i can make it at home

anything like that will be of great help

thanks!

Answer 1

I think there is a retail version of the chocolate syrup available at Starbucks; however, I don't think it's the same as what they use behind the counter.

I would talk to some baristas and see if any of them will sell you a jug of the actual syrup. Sure, they're not supposed to, but I used to work at Starbucks and knew more than a few baristas from my store and other nearby stores that used to sell the mocha syrups. I think the going rate was $20 American. If you strike out at one store, either go back when there are others working, or try a different store.

If all else fails, make a syrup concentrate from Hershey's unsweetened baking cocoa. Make the recipe for "Favorite Hot Cocoa" (found here: http://www.hersheys.com/recipes/recipes/... but just up until right before you add the milk. This is a great chocolate syrup, and you can adjust the sweetness/choclateyness as needed.

Hope this helps

They sometimes sell the mocha syrup in the stores so i'd check ebay. However i've never tasted the one that is sold. Behind the counter we make ours fresh and only keep the chocolate for 24hrs. We have a bag thats sent to us with the mix and we add hot water to prepare it. It would be hard to buy the one made in the store because we don't have a container for it other than the one used at the bar. Check ebay for the syrup and maybe you'll find the mix there too.
