McDonald's Frappe Mocha (Small) Complete Information

A McDonald's Mocha Frappe (Small) costs $5.59 and carries 430 calories with 90mg of caffeine, which makes it the third most caffeinated drink on the entire McDonald's menu.

Only the $2.59 Iced Bold Blend at 110mg and Sweet Tea (Small) No Ice at 95mg carry more. That is worth knowing because a frappe reads as a dessert, and at 430 calories it is one, but it also delivers double the caffeine of any latte on the board. Against the $5.54 Caramel Frappe at 420 calories and 70mg, the mocha is heavier and stronger for five cents more. The chocolate is doing part of the caffeine work. Order it instead of dessert rather than with one.

Health Insight

At 430 calories and 51g of sugar, this one is best treated as an occasional order rather than an everyday one.

Lighter alternative: Caramel Apple Pie Latte Small on the same menu comes in at 340 calories. See Caramel Apple Pie Latte Small

How to Make a Frappe Mocha (Small) at Home?

Same coffee ice technique as any frappe, with chocolate replacing caramel. Cocoa alongside the chocolate sauce is what stops it tasting purely of sugar.

Tips

  • Cocoa powder alongside the sauce. Sauce alone tastes of sugar rather than chocolate.
  • Coffee ice cubes, frozen the day before, are still the whole trick.
  • Blend completely smooth; any ice texture left reads as a mistake in a frappe.

Variations

  • Use caramel sauce for the $5.54 Caramel Frappe at 420 calories.
  • Use dark chocolate sauce for a less sweet version than the original.
  • Skip the whipped cream to take a meaningful share of the calories off.

Serve immediately. A restaurant small is $5.59 at 430 calories and 90mg of caffeine.
