Chill your liquids. For the best texture, use cold heavy cream and almond milk.
Cold ingredients help the Frosty thicken quickly.
Add the base to a blender: 1/2 cup heavy cream, 3/4 cup unsweetened almond milk, 2 tablespoons cocoa powder, 2–3 tablespoons powdered keto sweetener, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, and a tiny pinch of salt.
Optional thickener: Sprinkle in 1/8 teaspoon xanthan gum. This makes it creamier and more Frosty-like. Don’t add too much.
Blend briefly. Give it 10–15 seconds to combine, scraping the sides if needed so the cocoa fully mixes in.
Add ice. Start with 1 to 1 1/2 cups of ice cubes.
Blend on high until thick and smooth. If it’s too thin, add a few more cubes. If it’s too thick, splash in a bit more almond milk.
Taste and adjust. Add more sweetener if you like it sweeter, or a dash of cocoa for deeper chocolate flavor.
A pinch more salt can enhance chocolate notes.
Serve immediately. For the classic experience, pour into a chilled glass or cup and enjoy with a spoon or thick straw.
