History

‘Frappuccino’ is a word composed of ‘frappé’ and ‘cappuccino’, coined and registered in Boston: is a term that indicates a thick smoothie with ice cream derived from the French word which is precisely ‘frappé’.

The original Frappuccino was crafted and sold by George Howell’s coffee shop chain, The Coffee Connection, in eastern Massachusetts. When Starbucks bought this chain also acquired the right to produce and sell Frappuccino. It is still a registered trademark for the line of iced coffee drinks sold by Starbucks.
