Cinnabon adds concentrated flavoring, some ice and a curious secret ingredient referred to only as a "dairy product". When blended smooth, out comes these thick, refreshing drinks that look and taste like they were made with ice cream.
For my Cinnabon Icescape recipes below, we just need a little half-and-half that's half cream and half milk for those of you across the pond. It gives your homemade version the exact same creamy consistency as the original with its custom "dairy" ingredient.
Strawberry is the most popular of the flavors, but the other two are tasty as well. The Mochalatta version starts with my Cinnabon Mochalatta Chill recipe, and produces a thicker blended version of the drink, similar to Starbucks popular blended Frappuccino.
