This Starbucks Secret Menu Churro Frappuccino Is Bound to Complete Your Summer
Updated: Feb. 18, 2024
How have we not heard about the Churro Frappuccino before?
There’s so much to love on the Starbucks menu—and even more to love on the secret menu. We’ve discovered all kinds of crafty concoctions over the summer, like the Cookies and Cream Frappuccino and Pina Colada Frappuccino, but this one may be the best yet. It’s creamy, loaded with cinnamon and exactly what we’ve all been craving.
That’s right—we’re talking about a Churro Frappuccino! Here’s how to order one.
How to Order a Churro Frappuccino
As much as we love the state fair, we prefer our churros from the drive-thru. This recipe is relatively simple.
- Start out with a Grande Caramel Frappuccino, and replace the regular ol’ whole milk with heavy whipping cream for a creamier texture.
- Then, ask your barista for cinnamon dolce syrup (two pumps for a Grande), extra caramel drizzle and cinnamon dolce topping. Don’t worry—the whipped cream is included.

Keep Your Barista in Mind
Before you roll up to the drive-thru, make sure you know what you’re ordering. Starbucks baristas aren’t trained on secret menu drinks, so they may look at you sideways when you ask for a Churro Frappuccino. The best rule of thumb is to have your recipe ready or memorized before you order, so you’re not scrambling at the register.
There are so many delicacies on the secret menu, and we’re on a mission to try them all. If you’re in the same boat, make sure you know how to order a Peanut Butter Cup Frappuccino or a Fruit Punch Drink. (Your taste buds will thank you.)
