i work at starbucks. i have been tworkign with the company for a year and a half. orbis is wrong! i dont think he works there. we DO NOT use vanilla ice cream at all...
we use a creme base liquid. which is nonfat milk and this powder. and we use a strawberry puree.. if you grab the cup. you can measure the creme base up tot he first green line. and add th strawberry puree to the second green line.. but how to make one at home. you shoudl start experimenting do you get it right! strawberries n creme is just basically a strawberry milkshake.
you can ak for a glass of water or just ask for a starbucks cup as measurement. you can measure nonfat milk with 3 packets of splenda to the first green line. and find a strawberry puree somewhere liek at bevrages and more (aka BevMo) Im not sure if they have it but you can always call and ask. of look around in the grocery store..
of an easier way is to just pour in some whole or on fat milk into the blender and throw in some strawberry ice cream till its at the consitency you want (i used to work at baskin robins too lol) they taste almost identical. they also taste good with chocolate syrup and/or chocolate chips. but just start experimenting!!
dont add ice if you go for the milkshakes! lol
good luck!

Strawberry & Cream Frappuccino® is a perfect blend of delicious cream, milk, and ice with a generous swirling of Strawberries. The new beverage - also suitable for non-coffee drinkers - is likely to become a favorite for the whole family.

Starbucks Strawberries & Creme Frappuccino Blended Creme
A Berry Bad Idea
Starbucks' Strawberries & Creme Frappuccino Blended Creme not only uses the word "creme" too many times in its name, but it also has too many calories and fat grams. One might think, "how bad can strawberries, milk, ice and whipped cream be?" Uhhh, try 420 calories and 12 grams of fat bad. And that's for the smallest size! Yikes. The bottom line is, there is absolutely no reason to partake in one of these fat-filled strawberry shakes, especially since our version of the blended beverage won, HANDS DOWN, in a side by side taste test. Men, women, children (and even some small animals) preferred our 135-calorie, 1g of fat "Strawberry Cloud" over The Bucks' calorie-infested pink frap. So ditch Starbucks' strawberry screw-up and try a Strawberry Cloud instead. This recipe will rock your frozen drink-loving world.

Sweetie, you don't have to post that question here, if you walk into any Starbucks, they will gladly tell you exactly what's in it.
Creme mix
Strawberries
Ice
Whip on top.
It does NOT involve any types of ice cream.
3mm5 is telling the truth.
adragon is funny, but mostly accurate
orbis is pulling your leg.

Strawberries & Crème Frappuccino® Blended Crème
Strawberries (puree) and milk blended with ice, topped with whipped cream.
Frappuccinos
I ordered an iced mocha, but it didn't look like I expected it to ... This is one I dealt with on a daily basis. Much of the time, a customer asking for an iced mocha really means an iced blended mocha, the concoction we call a Mocha Frappuccino©. It's kind of a milkshakey thing, but be aware that a coffee-based Frappuccino is not a milkshake. It is a coffee drink. Don't buy it for your children; try a creme Frappuccino instead, or at the very least make it a decaf. (Yes, all coffee-based Frappuccinos are available in decaf) An iced mocha is just espresso, chocolate, milk and ice cubes; a Frappuccino is chocolate and Frap concentrate blended with ice and usually topped with whipped cream (which, incidentally, is made fresh in the store every day. Much better than Redi-Whip). [back]
What's this creme Frappuccino I've heard about? These were introduced a couple years ago and quickly became one of the more popular parts of the summer drink lineup. They're actually pretty good -- it's based on nonfat milk, so it can be pretty low in fat, and there's no caffeine unless you add chocolate. Any of the flavored syrups can be added, including mocha, mint and even chai. Some have special flavoring add-ins, such as the Vanilla Bean Frappuccino or the Strawberries and Creme. While having forty billion more blended drinks to explain makes life harder for employees, hopefully it'll cut down on the number of parents getting their little kids massive coffee-laden frappuccinos (and then wondering why the brats are hell on wheels for hours afterwards). My personal favorite of these is a cold version of a steamer I often make for myself -- half vanilla, half mint. Tastes like mint ice cream, yum. [back]
What do you have against Frappuccinos, anyway? Your average barista is usually not very fond of these, and it's hard to say exactly why. They're quite easy to make, rarely involve espresso, don't require steaming milk ... it's just a matter of throwing the ingredients in the blender and blending. They're fairly tasty, and most employees and ex-employees have a favorite frap or two. So why don't we like them? Well, for one thing it's a favorite drink of the Trendy Teenagers who pour forth from their Junior High schools and High schools, make sure they are Seen entering Starbucks, and commence to order a Trendy Drink. Fraps are also a way of drinking coffee without tasting it, which is kind of cheating in some eyes. One learns to instinctively know who's going to order a Frappuccino, and dread evil frap rushes. The closest analogy I can come up with is being a bartender and dealing with a constant flow of orders for little blended girly drinks. (To be honest, though, I don't know whether bartenders hate making girly drinks like I hate making fraps)
Another big factor, however, is the drink itself, in its unmixed state. The liquid for the coffee-based Frap is made from dehydrated coffee (which does not smell like coffee after being mixed with water) and premade, presweetened concentrate. The resulting mix is not unlike glue -- when it spills, you have to wipe it up quick or it'll stick for years. Two incidents from my experience at work can illustrate this: cleaning up fermented goo from underneath our leaking frap machine (nearly got high off those fumes), and the fact that upon noticing frap splattered on the wall, my ex-ASM tried to wipe it off and discovered that although the paint came off, the goo did not.
So, to sum up: Frappuccinos are yummy, easy to make, infinitely better fresh than bottled, and well-nigh impossible to clean up. You might try the occasional iced espresso drink instead. (I'm still annoyed that they took away the Raspberry Mocha Chip Frappuccino) [back] http://www.quicksilverweb.net/sbucks/atb.htm

We use a mixture of strawberry extract, whipped cream, vanilla ice cream, and milk. It's just a mixture put into the machine with ice, if you want an iced one. If not, exclude the ice.
