The Oreo Frappe is a modern twist on classic American milkshakes, combining the beloved Oreo cookie with a blended, icy texture that became popular in coffee shops and home kitchens during the 2000s as a fun, indulgent treat.

Since its launch in 1912, the Oreo has been a staple snack. Its creamy filling and crunchy chocolate wafers blend well, giving drinks a chocolatey flavor and texture, which led cafés to feature Oreo‑infused shakes and frappes as a novelty item.

In the Midwest, some cafés add a swirl of peanut butter; on the West Coast, oat milk or almond milk is often used for a dairy‑free version; in the South, a splash of bourbon or caramel sauce may be added for an adult twist.

Oreo Frappes are popular at birthday parties, summer barbecues, movie nights, and as a special after‑school treat for kids. They also appear on dessert menus for casual gatherings and coffee‑shop brunches.

It reflects the American love for customizable, indulgent drinks that can be prepared quickly. Similar to flavored Frappuccinos, the Oreo Frappe offers a nostalgic flavor while leveraging the convenience of blended beverages.

Traditionally the drink uses whole milk, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, ice, and classic Oreo cookies. Acceptable substitutes include plant‑based milks, granulated sugar (processed), vanilla bean paste, frozen milk cubes, or other chocolate sandwich cookies.

Pairs nicely with classic desserts such as chocolate brownies, cheesecake, apple pie, or a simple vanilla ice cream sundae for an extra‑decadent experience.

Common errors include adding ice after the liquid (which can cause the blender to jam), blending for too short a time (leaving cookie chunks), and using warm milk which melts the ice too quickly, resulting in a watery drink.

Adding ice first creates a buffer that helps the blades cut through the solid Oreo pieces more efficiently and prevents the mixture from becoming too liquid before the ice can be crushed, ensuring a smooth, frothy texture.
